I’ve lost my dog, Nico. She is very dear to me and I am absolutely heartbroken. She was last seen in Silkstream park in Colindale London. If you see her, can you let me know? I realise she could be anywhere in the country now if she got into someone’s car...
@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social reduced to reading out live texts from parliamentary candidate Nigel Farage. I remember Vincent Hanna.
At this point it’s more defensible to be on Truth Social than X. Being on the former at least is honest. Being on the latter is at best delusional.
Sir Michael speaks for all true England football fans here …
Sir Michael Take CBE@sirmichaeltake.bsky.social · 3w ago#EngArg I am an avid football fan! Our team in this #WorldCup are playing like George Best & the lads did when we won in 1966. Gareth Southgate has once more proven what a bloody great manager he is. 3-1 to us tonight! Bellingham, Caine & Foden with the goals. Come on you Blues! 🏴
The BBC couldn’t be any clearer: Farage took huge sums of money to push the interests of crypto investors. By far the most corrupt politician in modern British history. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Nigel Farage: The mysterious crypto firm backed by Reform's biggest donor
Tether is a giant in crytocurrency, an industry that Nigel Farage believes the UK should be embracing.

The most unsettling thing about this image is the reminder that Thérèse Coffey used to be Deputy PM…
Crucial other parties stand down to allow only one alternative candidate against Farridge in the Clacton by-election to ensure he loses, equally crucial it’s Count Binface who will win at a canter and take his place next to Tice and 30p Lee on the comedy benches of HoC.
If all the decent people left X it would be over for it.
Lisa Nandy has just come off Twitter - all Labour politicians should do the same.
Just over a week to go until a rather unique setting at Crofton Beam, nr Marlborough for our Lazy Sunday Afternoon of folk adjacent live music …
The idea that we have a fair and independent press in this country is laughable…
Adam Bienkov@adambienkov.bsky.social · last mo.So it turns out the massive scandal here is that Bridget Phillipson's mum bought a council house for £9k in 1990 and then sold it *33 years* later for £99k. That's the entire story
Reform UK councillors have introduced a motion to rescind King's Lynn and West Norfolk's climate emergency declaration and deprioritise decarbonisation efforts The council were going to vote on it on Thursday But the meeting has been postponed due to extreme heat
10 Years of Brexit 🇬🇧🇪🇺 On the night of the Brexit ref in 2016, as the result came in, this young woman was asked how she felt. Her mixture of anger, grief, shame, shock and despair spoke for millions of us that night — and everything she feared might happen came true. #RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺
Whereas the party led by Nigel 'Hitler was right' Farage is just fine and dandy
Pretty much sums up the ludicrous position the govt are now in re: social media…
Otto English@ottoenglish.bsky.social · 2mo agoAs long as the government remains on the fascist enabling X nobody can take anything they say seriously with regards to social media and safety
Note perfect from Starmer. Exactly the right response.
Farrukh@implausibleblog.bsky.social · 2mo agoAfter Nigel Farage claims we're living under two tier policing Keir Starmer slams him at #PMQs "His response has been to call for rage, rage, that's his response to a father that lost his son" "Exploiting this tragedy to creating grievance and division is wrong" "It shows exactly who he is"

If you’re still on Elon Musk’s X, ask yourself this: why? | Jonathan Liew
Some argue that quitting the platform formerly known as Twitter cedes the space to malign actors. But it’s an open sewer, beyond redemption, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Liew

I hope this isn’t true. There are times when it’s more important to put country before party. This is one of them. Burnham’s longstanding commitment to a fairer voting system could transform our democracy & counter the dire threat of a Reform UK government elected on a minority of the vote
Greens suggest they will properly contest byelection in blow to Burnham
Statement follows speculation party would not field candidate in Makerfield or barely fight seat
