One of the knock-on benefits of Universal Basic income, would be that people would not need to waste time on forms, and could use that time for projects, growing vegetables and many many more things.
Good. Now arrest those who were with him for conspiracy, and then arrest those who tried to set fire to a hotel for arson. And then proscribe the group as a terrorist organisation. Which is what you are if you use violence for political ends. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

The outright refusal to treat white supremacy as an ideology which motivates action and treat it as generally objectionable is what allows this strategy to be viable for Elon Musk.
Robert Reich@rbreich.bsky.social · 3w agoWhen Elon Musk's groups spent $20M+ on Wisconsin's 2025 Supreme Court race, his involvement backfired and his candidate lost by 10 points. Now his super PAC has quietly spent $14M+ on key midterm races, including the Texas Senate race. Would be a shame if people found out.
Question for the timeline: If Rishi Sunak, born in England, raised in England and a former British PM, cannot be “English” because he isn’t white, what is Englishness being defined by? Nationality? Culture? Or blood? Because that distinction matters rather a lot, and leads down a damned dark road.

Russ Jones@russincheshire.bsky.social · last mo.Who let the dogs out? Nobody. But this time next week my book "The Wolf That Chews Rocks" is released. Science. Laughs. Fox poo. All the good stuff. Advance readers seem very keen. But they don't have to live with Baxter. Read an excerpt, you idiots. russelljonesauthor.com/wolf-excerpt...
They’ve all forgotten their kit and are having to do fascism in their pants.
The Wolf that Chews Rocks By @russincheshire.bsky.social is a brilliant book about dogs, and one dog in particular too, and is a really very, very good book. Out on 14 the September, run, don't walk, to your local bookshop or online and buy it, to keep an excellent writer supplied with dog treats.
Thanks to: @pileusmedia.bsky.social This sums up my position, though I was only born in 1961. Macmillanite, Keynesian, mixed economy... centre-right in the '60s, far-left now.

@russincheshire.bsky.social Just reviewed on Goodreads. Tried to review on Amazon, but says This item is not eligible to be reviewed. Am I being dim ? Anyone else seeing this, go buy this book, is very good if you love dogs.
It pleases me that the idiot Fox only got 347 votes. It pleases me even more that the revolting Kai Stevens didn't get even half that.
For his next stunt Farage is going to challenge a toddler to a tennis match and then crow about his overwhelming victory when he wins in a tie break
A national poll, conducted in July 2026 by Ipsos, asked voters across the UK who they would prefer to win, Count Binface or Nigel Farage. Count Binface beat Nigel Farage by 12 points! Come on Clacton. Do the right thing. Vote Bin Face not Bin Man!
