I seriously thought this was a front page from 2018 or so being shared for some reason.

Reform: pro nature but no, not all those green policies which actually means we'll still have nature to conserve 🤦🏼‍♀️. I see why Goldsmith is doing this but he *really* shouldn't be green washing Farage.

I cannot tell you how much doubt was consistently directed at the Gaza Health Ministry’s casualty numbers and how much pressure was put on news organizations to couch those numbers as unreliable.

Biden himself said they were fabricated!

Measles vaccination, human rights, international peace, European unity. The far right have never met a 20th century achievement that they don't want to destroy, and all in the name of the most fragile and pathetic men on the planet.

62.5% of current Reform MPs are former Tory MPs so they are in fact the Conservatives.

This is a very irritating article. "Here's all the data that shows the 4 day week is working but on the other hand here's a couple of moany residents so blah blah blah".

Jenrick saying he's "put aside personal ambition" too join Reform is the single most shameless statement I've ever heard.

If he "put aside personal ambition" he'd disappear. That's all there is.

🧵 This is a very useful piece from @shippersunbound.bsky.social providing an insight into the two policy main brains in Reform UK - Danny Kruger and Zia Yusuf and how they are thinking about their approach
Kruger says ‘It’s got to be Trump 2, not Trump 1.’

As he made his way to lunch on Monday, Danny Kruger, the former Tory MP who defected to Reform last year, could be seen clutching a well-thumbed copy of John Campbell’s biography of Lord Haldane, one ...

#TheTraitors I don't understand the questions thing, surely the Traitors can just lie? And why would they agree to recruit Matthew, when they haven't even discussed it between them? It just doesn't work.

"I'll trade your country for your prize"....
unspeakably pathetic stuff from Trump here as he says he'd be honored to accept María Corina Machado's Nobel Prize if she wants to give it up to him

History books will quote this as a metaphor for the Trumpian era.

If the US threatens Greenland, all EU countries should boycott the World Cup*. And S American countries should do the same re Venezuela. Or only go to the matches in Mexico and Canada.

As an ex diplomat it's always strange to suddenly hear names from the past, long forgotten but dragged out of the dark depths of my mind. Today's is James Kariuki, apparently now our deputy at the UN. I'd totally forgotten he existed until now.

That money belongs to Venezuelans you fucker.
Q: Is it possible that the US ends up administering Venezuela for years?

As usual @aliceolilly.bsky.social is spot on about constitutional matters.

There are always potential Trumps: the difference is whether gatekeepers do their jobs.

And here Congress has long abdicated its proper constitutional role.
Big question for Congress as to whether they will care about their own constitutional role (or, indeed, care about anything at all)

I fear we already know the answer to that

It’s old-fashioned to defend mainstream journalism these days but some of the most reliable reporting from people actually on the ground will be the AP and Reuters the next 24 hours. Your Substack journalist writing takes will be using frontline reporting from them.

The Mirror shared a post on FB about refugees drowning as they tried to seek asylum, inc an 8yr old. The comments are *vile*. This is now the norm. Yes some are bots...but many aren't. When did we become a world where people celebrate the death of a child because they're from a different culture?

This awful man is everywhere, bish bosh isn't he amusing? And now this fan of Trump and friend of Vance wants to get into politics. We don't learn, do we?
