The fact is this is about identifying what we do best and finding more ways of doing less of it better. Used to write sketches for radio Agent: Jane Plough 🏳️‍🌈 🇺🇦 Ex radio type. Voiced a stop motion animation. Saints FC supporter 😬

Well, I don’t call other countries Deutchland or Polska or Nederland or Belgique/Belgie or Italia or Espana or Hellas or Danmark or Sverige or Norge or Soumi or Rossiya or Portugal. Well, that last one (and France) are exceptions that prove the rule. So I’ll still call it Nauru.

The Pacific Island country of Nauru has changed its name to the Republic of Naoero, its president said, matching the spelling and pronunciation in the national language. n.pr/4wDrhLF

RefUK, RW media, & Eurofash are plainly trying to whip up a panic about this. Any serious report must begin by explaining that Ceuta is in Africa - not mainland Spain - and 48k+ of the 50k crossers were already returned. It is frightening how many still don't know this. Please share on all socials.

"Spain's PM blames traffickers after 60,000 migrants reach Ceuta from Morocco 01:32 What triggered the mass migrant crossings into Ceuta? Sofia Ferreira Santos and Sarah Rainsford, Southern and Eastern Europe correspondent 31 July 2026 Spain's prime minister has blamed trafficking gangs after about 60,000 migrants crossed into the Spanish North African enclave of Ceuta from Morocco. At least 57 people died during the surge, according to local media."Daily Mail and Daily Express from this weekend, with front page headlines "Ministers MUST stop the Spanish border invaders reaching UK" and "SPANISH BORDER CRISIS IS 'WAKE-UP CALL' FOR UK", respectively.

"[N]o UEFA national teams will participate in any FIFA competition for so long as these proposals remain alive, unless this proposal has been abandoned in its entirety and binding assurances have been given that FIFA will never again open its governance or competitions to private ownership."

💣 UEFA eviscerates Gianni Infantino. "The World Cup is not for sale." "This is not merely a profound failure of leadership, but an abdication of FIFA’s duty as the custodian of world football." "We will never lend this model our legitimacy."

My thoughts are with everyone affected by the horrific attack in Berlin and their families. This appalling act of violence has no place in our society. London stands in solidarity with Berlin’s LGBTQ+ community. This is why Pride matters. Those who seek to spread hatred and division will never win.

Oh fir fuck’s sake, this is not the so called liberal establishment. This is a body set up to police the standards that all MPs and aspiring MPs sign up to. If you don’t like it, get out of politics.

Nigel Farage on whether his gifts/donations were declarable: “All right, perhaps I should have filled in a piece of paper. If that’s the worst thing I’ve done in life — not filling in a form — I would say that’s not too bad.” “I’ve certainly been judged guilty already by the liberal establishment.”
