It makes sense that the world’s stupidest person thinks he’s the smartest and says ridiculous, embarrassing things like this. And no, it’s not the dementia—he’s always been a clueless narsasist.

Trump: "I know Europe better than anybody. Better than the people that run it."

The modern Conservative Party, where Net Zero gets you out and Neo Nazism gets you in

So imagine if the part of SpaceX Rocket that accidentally hurtled into the moon, weighing 4,000kg hit Earth 😱😱 Musk’s rockets blow up, smash into planters, his cars catch fire, fall apart and crash killing 65 people as of 2025 and injuring scores more And he’s called a genius FGS 🤦🏼‍♂️

SpaceX rocket expected to have crashed into Moon - live updates

The stray piece of the Falcon 9 rocket is about the size of a five-storey building, with a weight on Earth of at least 4,000kg.

It so annoys me that the Tories so buggered up this country over the last 80 years and they get to have any say at all on the current government trying to fix things with one hand tied behind their backs by an electorate who want Rolls Royce public services for clapped out Ford Escort level taxes.

Badenoch represents double-down conservatism. Never apologise or moderate. Insult your opponents. Patronise journalists when challenged. Contradict yourself, lie, whatever it takes, but never back down. And that's how you end up creating an extremely avoidable Tory antisemitism scandal overnight

I grew up among Conservative politics. This is beyond that now. Defending a neo-nazi candidate shows how far Badenoch has shifted them to the far right. There is now no difference between her party and that of Restore and Reform. That should not be normalised. www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

Booker: "Ghislaine Maxwell is sitting in the lowest possible confinement after giving no information that helped us get one more investigation started and has been silent, and the man responsible for that we're about to make the attorney general of the US ... this is farcical."

French forces held a fierce defensive perimeter around Dunkirk and lost 18,000 souls. 40,000 became POWs. Without their resolve we wouldn’t have our nation’s story. It’s estimated 20-60k French resistance fighters died during the war. These fuckers really are vile bastards 😡😡

Call me crazy, but if a Democratic president had 350 accounts closed by their bank for money laundering it’d be more than a blip in the media

If you show up to Bluesky without following anyone, you'll be treated to a series of posts about art, music, and dogs. If you show up to X without following anyone, you'll be bombarded with right-wing conspiracies and white supremacist slop. It's weird which one is seen as a "political bubble"

Jenrick is a lying shit. Or an ignorant cunt. Or both. Ceuta is in North Africa. Nowhere near Southern Portugal nor mainland Spain. The incursion by Moroccans was a planned and organised stunt, designed to provoke extremist scaremongering...

I’ll make Bent Bob Jenrick’s Post below a lot more truthful and credible “3.01 AM Derbyshire migrants land on the beautiful beaches of Derbyshire just 30 miles from the Sea These aliens from Sigma IX were beamed down from a mothership invited by Count Binface will eat your pets and children alive!

This makes me two think two things; as a single policy party, what happens when they "fix" immigration, and secondly; someone who is literally a child of immigrants, wanting to forcefully deny immigration to anyone reeks of high hypocrisy.

Unelected nobody Zia (Muhammad Ziauddin) Yusuf of Reform says Britain is being invaded by foreigners and wants to use huge Navy Warships to round up teeny weeny inflatable boats which is like using a tank to catch a rabbit 🙄 Fun fact - Yusuf’s parents migrated to the UK from Sri Lank in 1980’s..

There is no-one on this good earth more vacuous and less worthy of engaged comment than a declared 'provocateur'. A cultural housefly.

Brilliant letter from Stuart Thompson to Jeremy Clarkson about his comments that benefit claimants should write weekly thank you letters to tax payers detailing how they spend their benefits each week.

In 2016, I was in the Loch Ness Inn in Lewiston drinking a pint after a lovely day of hiking and such, and saw Bear Grylls on the pub TV bite the head off a frog he’d dug out of the ground in a desert. I’ve hated him ever since with the same passion I usually reserve for mass murdering dictators.

Bear Grylls really fucked up that genre of masculinity while Ray Mears is there doing the thing and doing it better

Driving back from Pembrokeshire on the A40 (to avoid the dreadful motorway queues) on Saturday the Brecon Beacons felt more like Tuscany than Wales.

People who bang on the loudest about “metropolitan elites” are always the most elite. What is a London liberal anyway?

I really think some of my colleagues in the Parliamentary lobby need a bit of a break. The reporting at the moment is so frantic and a bit hysterical. Today Burnham is being accused of a major U-turn because he said he would look at something and then said he won't move ahead with it currently.

Science not being 100% right does not mean science is 100% wrong. There will always be areas on the margins of science that seem incomplete or disputed. That doesn't mean the other 99.9% of science is made up. Just in case Lewis Goodall needs help understanding this basic fact.

I want to go back to a country where people looked out for each other, you could leave your door open, and everyone knew right from wrong. That's why I'm voting for the sleaziest collection of corrupt f***ers the world has ever seen to do that for me.

🇺🇦 FM warns of a 🇷🇺 campaign using #Ceuta pictures to sow destabilisation. Are 🇮🇹🇫🇮🇩🇰 governments talking of suspending Schengen—not mentioning that (a) 🇪🇸 quickly got the Ceuta situation under control & (b) there are border controls between Ceuta and EU mainland anyway—aware whose game they are playing?

Reform UK Ltd cllr doesn't understand climate change, but 8yr olds do. JFC on a tricycle.

wanted this to be a spoof so so bad, hate that it's real, hideously depressing

Pirro’s motion to dismiss the Reflecting Pool indictment not only makes Trump look like a fool (see Chris’ screenshot) but also throws the Dept of the Interior (DOI) and the contractor under the bus. It’s quite rare to see DOJ tear into another agency like this.

“That the richest man in the world and the biggest donor to the president and ruling party of the United States openly and repeatedly endorses ethnic cleansing and insinuates violent threats ought to be of greater concern to the world’s power brokers.”

I looked at the write up. Max Pemberton has long been an adhd sceptic. A bit of balance wouldn’t go amiss. Usual bs, I won’t be watching.

They’re very ignorant and behind the times, ADHD is now being recognised as much more than ‘just’ a neurodevelopmental disorder, latest evidence suggests it comes with physical health effects that extend to the whole body. Dr Jessica Eccles (Bendy Brain on SM) is doing some brilliant work on this.

Oh good, woowoo science and woowoo education policy! What a delightful twofer.

Scott Bryan@scottygb.bsky.social · last wk.

“While traits of ADHD undeniably exist – the question is why they exist. Is ADHD actually a neurodevelopmental disorder? Do people with ADHD have differently wired brains? Or does our world – with…processed food, and regimented education – serve as the catalyst for certain…patterns of behaviour?”

One of those moments where you feel like maybe, at some point, someone should have written our Constitution down.

Just sitting on the pavement and clapping is now terrorism. Not saying anything, not holding or displaying any signs, just sitting on the pavement & clapping. Andy Burnham can stop this. But he isn't. Reporting by Steven Methven for @novaramedia.com

If you’re watching Fauci’s testimony remember that science isn’t an ideology. It doesn’t lie. It evolves. COVID-19 was a once-in-a-century pandemic caused by a brand-new virus, recommendations changed because the evidence changed. That’s not deception. That’s how it works.
