High Court rules that you can't pretend retired vicars and disabled people are terrorists
In a decision that should spell the end of Yvette Cooper’s political career, the High Court has ruled the ban on Palestine Action is unlawful.

Oh, and it contains maize, which didn’t exist on this side of the Atlantic before 1492.
Spotted in Belfast Airport - apparently Heverlee “premium” pilsner is brewed to the “original recipe” which dates back to 1129. Surprised by this, given that lager yeast didn’t emerge until the 15th century and pilsner didn’t exist until 1842. ABInBev really don’t give a shit about beer or drinkers.

Just checking, it's now ok to flee your homeland, because you're afraid for your safety, and seek refuge in another Country?
Glad we've cleared that up. Let's hear no more about immigration and refugees then.

There is now enough weirdness around Epstein that even sensible journalists like me are saying he allegedly took his life.

To give you an idea of how deranged the UK has become about gender stuff, here's Enid Blyton - the absolute avatar of classic English conservatism and a huge fan of racist "gollywogs" - casually describing a gender non-conforming kid in the 1940s and having their friends be totally cool with it.

Pretty much sums it up. And it wouldn’t be that hard to change it, if we actually wanted to. Just taking action on better, well understood choices. That’s what history, and every generation to come, will remember about us.
The only biosphere in the known universe capable of supporting human life is being turned into a hell planet because most of Earth's governments refuse to stop trying to satisfy the insatiable greed of a plutocracy composed of people who already have more money than they could spend in 20 lifetimes.
Point of no return: a hellish ‘hothouse Earth’ getting closer, scientists say
Continued global heating could set irreversible course by triggering climate tipping points, but most people unaware

fuck anyone voting labour . your voting in support of the murder of 15000+ children
This looks quite a lot like an assertion by the Home Office that it knew it was breaking the law, didn't care, and doesn't regret it.
![Lawyers representing the Home Office said the proscription had had the intended effect of “disrupting PA’s [Palestine Action] pattern of escalatory conduct” and had “not prevented people from protesting in favour of the Palestinian people or against Israel’s actions in Gaza”.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xurjtu2wa2akyi64gab34ahg/bafkreihyyqj6fezrzwkasabsacn7cgjzahfo5dy6vwk4t6lkvc6r7kbizm@jpeg)
