Wait! Is that ruddy ballroom going to be bigger than the actual White House? Jeez.
Wait a minute.....so it is definitely not safe to have Maccabi Tel Aviv fans to come and visit your football ground in the middle of the one of the biggest multicultural cities in England. I think we can put this argument to bed now. *eye rolls*
The reason they're coming after this place is because they can't control the people on it and it drives them nuts.

What kind of journalist drives a Bentley? He's a grifter thru and thru.
Simon Gosden@simongosden.bsky.social · 11mo agowww.standard.co.uk/news/crime/t... Tommy Robinson told police ‘not a chance bruv’ when asked for mobile pin. He had more than £13,000 and 1,900 euros in cash with him, told officers he was driving his silver Bentley to Benidorm for a couple of days when he was stopped. As you do!
Being pro-Palestinian is not being anti-Jewish. Just as being pro-Jewish is not being anti-Palestinian. Irresponsible language and framing from the Home Secretary. It is perfectly right that people both protest the Gaza genocide and mourn the Manchester attack.
President Trump has posted this AI video of him and JD Vance in band, while the US gov is shut down Good luck America, its bonkers there!

We must explore other fundraising platforms that doesn't profit from charity and hard work that people have done in raising money for good deeds.
“It is astonishing just how fully right wingers have come to dominate social media. The default for teenagers who are on the internet is for them to be sucked into a world where they are bombarded with content from Ben Shapiro, Charlie Kirk, Andrew Tate, Fuentes, Peterson.” Dreadful but important 🧵
Seth Cotlar@sethcotlar.bsky.social · 12mo agoI try to resist doomerism, but I have to admit that hearing Gen Z "conservatives" describe their media diets made me want to walk into the sea. Nick Fuentes, Andrew Tate, Jordan Peterson, etc. Ben Shapiro framed as a moderate. Bari Weiss as the go to for "liberal opinions." youtu.be/fpTXMVpdyRg?...
Whenever you legislate for more powers, you shouldn’t think about what your government would do with them, but what a future bad (evil or incompetent - or both!) government might do with them.
Chai Patel@chaipatel.net · 12mo agoSo we're putting in a mass digital id database immediately before a potential Reform government that will use it to deport and brutalise millions of people? Your local supermarket refusing to let you buy food without your id card in 2030 cos right to work checks morphed into right to eat checks.

Jim Pickard@pickardje.bsky.social · 12mo agospokesperson for Sadiq Khan: “We are not going to dignify his appalling and bigoted comments with a response. “London is the greatest city in the world, safer than major US cities, and we’re delighted to welcome the record number of US citizens moving here.”
Blatant corruption. Trump and whole lots of them should be sacked if USA electorate have any sense.
The Tennessee Holler @thetnholler.bsky.social · 12mo agoAs People Mag Points out, a treatment for autism Dr. Oz just announced Trump’s FDA is approving is sold by a supplement company owned by… Dr. Oz. people.com/what-is-leuc...
FBI claims Charlie Kirk's shooter disassembled the gun and put it in backpack. Aboo Hafsah illustrates how long that takes and that it doesn't fit into it. Tyler Robinson framed! (Same intro/outro music as in my my roof jump A.I.-Fail video! Proud. 😊 X-link in reply below) bsky.app/profile/alge...
Algeist Nydream@algeistnydream.bsky.social · last yr.PATSY! Tyler Robinson walked up the roof WITHOUT A GUN! Gun must have been on the roof already! Why did he fake limp on his way there? Was he just geocaching? Did a second sniper on the roof take out Charlie Kirk? Did he confess he pulled the trigger or just that he was on the roof?
Trump’s allies now control X, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, & TikTok. They own Fox News, CBS, WaPo, WSJ & NY Post. They own Sinclair Broadcasting which has 200 tv stations and local news in 100 markets. “Freedom of speech” is now what Trump and his billionaire pals say it is.
⚠️This is the Jimmy Kimmel monologue that got his show pulled. Not hate. Not celebration of death. Just the truth: Republicans rushed to blame the left before any facts about the shooter or motive were known. Keep sharing it. Spread the truth.
Oh look – it is the beginning of what @georgemonbiot.bsky.social calls an onanocracy – including one guy suing another for $15bn for pointing out he’s a pervert, but all friends in power really.

Here's a fact for you all. Prior to 2017 there was not a single documented case of any individual travelling by small boats across the English Channel to caim asylum in the UK. Not ONE. This current 'boats' crisis has been largely caused by Brexit. But for some reason NOBODY is saying that.
