so a month ago I was reading @markpackuk.bsky.social’s speech on Twitter in the lords and there were obviously fake stats the government used to justify Twitter’s UK reach and its continued importance to British audiences

Rob has now found the source of the data was… Twitter
UPDATE: I've had a response from the Cabinet Office!
"the statistics cited ‘19.2 million British citizens registered with X and 10.8 million families using the platform’ were provided by OmniGov, the government's media buying agency, who received this data directly from X itself."

The UK Parliament needs to move to a more central location. I think Eileen Bilton could help.

Unsurprising that all the TERFY nurse groups (like the Darlington 5) all have overlap with Team Trump, anti-women rights groups and speaking at anti-abortion rallies.

Hope public knowledge of their bigotry follows them throughout their (hopefully short) careers in the NHS

Scratch a TERF..

A lovely evening in charming company, and even got to tear down a crappy plastic flag on the way home. Lovely stuff. #KeepBritainTidy

Obviously fuck Mandelson and Andrew, but it does annoy me that the UK media at large seems to have singled these two out as the only Epstein associates to face consequences. Peter Thiel is all over the Epstein files, and him facing similar excommunication would majorly change UK for the better.

Peter Mandelson is telling the truth on one thing: the idea he was bought for a $4k “bursary” or a $75k gift is ridiculous

The real incentive was a post-government payday - one so big he *rejected* a $3–5m-a-year offer

And Epstein enabled that payday

Here’s the evidence. 🧵

"If Mandelson's links to Jeffrey Epstein disqualifies him from holding power, why does the company controlled by Epstein's business partner and co-owner retain access to the UK's most sensitive national security infrastructure?"

Peter Thiel. Jeffrey Epstein. Palantir. The UK Government.

Thread. As a comedy fan, watching this happen in slow motion has been grim.
This is very good. It’s about drama, but what it says is true even more for comedy, which travels worse, struggles for international co-funding, and used to boost its budgets using physical media sales.

Why things are in a mess, anyway.
