This site is as f****d up as the other one in many ways. A complete lack of perspective from many "Mahmoud and Starmer are just like the Nazis", and a moral and ideological certainty about their worldview.

The outrageous comparisons between Mahmood’s asylum proposals and what the Nazis did to Jews are utterly reprehensible and often antisemitic.
November 17, 2025 at 7:26 PM
Those who:
want the asylum system to remain the same
don’t want to see a Muslim woman get to grips with asylum and immigration, will be unhappy.
Whatever you think about Mahmood, her command of the asylum system and the bitter Tory inheritance is formidable.

Also, frankly, you need to stop rewarding this shrillness. I see plenty of people with whom I interact make similarly ludicrous grandiose statements, knowing they will get them the validation of "likes". That is the way to take a calm, friendly online space and make it a left mirror-image of X.

After the election of the dismal Lucy Powell, anyone who thinks the very able Streeting is a shoo in as a replacement for Starmer, needs to think again.

I don't really understand the 'Trump sueing the the BBC' thing. The UK courts would dismiss it; the US courts don't have jurisdiction. I guess he could try & ban BBC America...

It's like Hitler sueing America for allowing Chaplin's Great Dictator in cinemas

Trump can sod off

Bluesky reminds me a lot of Twitter when Corbyn was going to win those elections.

Really? You think Truss would’ve improved workers rights? Improved renters rights and boosted green energy? Please, you’re perfectly at liberty to dislike the government, but keep it credible
I think it's safe to assume now that the current government is led by a bunch of morons.

I kinda get that Labour need to be a bit like the tories to get into power but this lot seems to have taken inspiration from the Johnson & Truss era.

Listen to your back benchers. Don’t listen to your back benchers. I think they need facing down and never backed their fanciful ambitions. But please, make your bloody minds up.

Starmer can't say this publicly but it's what he and Labour should be telling the BBC very clearly and aggressively in private.
The resignations of Tim Davie and Deborah Turness must be an opportunity for the BBC to turn a new leaf, rebuild trust and resist those like Nigel Farage who want to destroy it

We must stand up for a strong, independent BBC, to stop Trump’s America becoming Farage's Britain.

This is the most abysmal, pathetic thing. The BBC head resigning because the corporation is not supine *enough* to the far-right.

The moderate left needs to challenge this kind of nonsense. NATO is a diminished alliance that is finding its feet at a critical moment – pushing back against an actual imperialist power.

In the last few days, the Times has had to delete two stories. One because someone pretended to be former Mayor Bill de Blasio to a reporter and one because they wrote up nonsense about Torsten Bell's expenses.

Needs a new editor badly.

‘Starmer dead-enders’. Lovely stuff. Screams ‘but look how smart I am’, in the face of the most powerful far right onslaught we’ve ever seen in the UK. Even the clever guys don’t realise how in thrall they are to the far right social media tsunami.
He just called us “cranks”. Genuinely baffled by the double standards by which Starmer dead-enders are just allowed to say anything, no matter how rude and detached from reality, but pointing this out is treated as an escalation.

Let’s be honest - there’s no difference between those who say there are too many brown & black faces in the media and those who claim a ‘Jewish conspiracy’ that controls the media.

It’s all racism.

Grooming gang survivor Ellie Reynolds encouraged by Farage to answer general Reform press questions (this one about Pochin's comments).

It is profoundly irresponsible by Farage to expose her to this risk - and destroys his claim that "this is not a Reform or political proposal".

Also NB "Sarah".
