If I had a nickel for every far right European leader caught soliciting foreign donors who were actually undercover journalists, I’d have two nickels.
I wonder if "academic freedom" will protect James Orr from the consequences of his various violations
One thing that I love about the film is how it captures a very distinct social setting and milieu. Lunch at Rules. G&Ts at Mark’s. A champagne reception at Oswald’s. Pints in a Shepherd Neame’s pub in Westminster. Discussion of Black Velvets over oysters by the sea.

Just a reminder, Professor James Orr, Reform UK head of policy, teaches 'ethics' to undergraduates at Cambridge University youtu.be/aXut3s90rUI
The Nigel Farage and Reform foreign donations scandal excluded from all but one national newspaper front page this morning. No sign of it at all on the front pages of the two papers which splashed the polls secretly funded by a Reform donor earlier this year
The Channel 4 expose on Reform is telly ecstasy. Prestige TV is great but can it beat watching Nigel Farage, James Orr and James Johnson getting stitched up for blatant corruption? No it cannot

god I'm actually quite gobsmacked by Starmer's decision, it's just so......small, so revealing of his complete and utter lack of interest in Parliament and parliamentary politics, until the very end
The Israeli election isn't going to lead to peace. Whoever wins will be right-wing. But if the new government doesn't include this fascist piece of shit it will be an improvement.
Nathan Tankus@nathantankus.bsky.social · 5d agoBen Gvir posted this video on twitter today which shows fat and happy Palestinians on a conveyer built going through the Israeli "prison" (torture camp) system and coming out emaciated and maudlin. This is textbook genocidal content.
Seit neuerem versucht Ulrich Siegmund auch den Begriff ,Baseballschlägerjahre‘ für die 90er Jahre infrage zu stellen. Und behauptet, damit versuche man diese Zeit schlecht zu machen, denn seine Vision 2026, das hat er im Sommerinterview verraten, besteht vor allem darin, Deutschland wieder 1/9
I hate it when people claim we got a promise from NATO. It makes us look like such idiots for signing all the treaties that made it clear we didnt. It's why I am forced to post this video of Gorby confirming we didn't get one.
Armenian News Network - Groong@groong.bsky.social · 6d agoMatlock heard Baker assure Gorbachev: NATO wouldn't expand 'not one inch eastward.' Later, lawyers rewrote it and expansion happened anyway.

Ah, but THIS time, fiddling with eligibility will produce real savings and not just more misery for the same amount of money, honest, I promise!
Tom Roberts@tpgroberts.bsky.social · 7d agoI do wish any of these pieces that criticise tax rises in favour of "welfare reform," would engage in the 16 year long experiment in welfare reform that has culminated in marginal savings and an increase (until recently) in child poverty. Truly, a mugs game. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...
seems like a good time to remind people that Niemöller (the author of the confession memorialized in the "First they came for the Communists" poem) was a Hitler supporter, and made that confession after spending time in the Dachau concentration camp
Ben Collins@bencollins.bsky.social · last wk.The Milo stuff is the perfect picture of fascism. You think you're protected because you go as big as you can on racism, you spend years harassing the movement's perceived enemies, you even disavow your own sexuality. They'll still throw you in a cage over the tiniest disagreement already forgotten.
OTD in 2019 we denied we had anything to do with the murderer we later traded for & welcomed with hugs and a red carpet.

Dr. Lucky Tran@luckytran.com · last wk.The FDA just approved daraxonrasib, a breakthrough drug for advanced pancreatic cancer that doubles survival time. This is huge: pancreatic cancer was once thought untreatable. The researchers received a standing ovation when they presented the trial results, unheard of at scientific conferences.

Man kann Zuversicht und Optimismus nicht anordnen, man muss es vermitteln. Es ist leider einer der ödesten Kommunikationsfehler, der gemacht wird: Sagen, was man vermitteln möchte. Show, don‘t tell. Wenn du möchtest, d Leute optimistisch sind, gib ihnen e Grund aber sag nicht „seid optimistisch“
