Good to see the Patriotic Alternative (alternative to what? having a coherent argument?) very much outnumbered by a counter protest in Warwick today. Masked up and filming "the Lefties" like they were auditioning for whatever Farage will call his "ICE".

“Going high is a long-term strategy” ~ Michelle Obama’s words feel more relevant now than ever before.

Listen as she reflects on why leading with fear or bitterness never creates real wins.

Can’t credit the author of this because I don’t know who. But very good little infographic. Worth sharing far and wide.

IMO, the ultimate outcome of Trump 2.0 will depend on wch feature of it predominates: malevolence or incompetence. The malevolence of Trump's DOJ is unbounded, but it's ability to do stuff is hamstrung by the fact that it's increasingly staffed by parking garage lawyers & women Trump thinks are hot.

The people of Minneapolis are showing breathtaking courage. Facing down armed federal goons to protect their neighbors isn't just brave; it’s legendary.

Editors stare they are “honored to nominate the city of Minneapolis & its people”, as the city has promoted democracy & human rights through nonviolent action.

The nomination focuses on deployment of ICE & Border Patrol to Minneapolis, which created widespread fear.

Tonight, Labour MPs voted to scrap the two child limit – a move that puts us on course to drive the biggest reduction of child poverty in a single Parliament.

The Tories and Reform UK voted against it.

Don’t let anyone tell you voting Labour doesn’t make a difference 🌹

This would be akin to President Biden speaking to the FBI agents right before they searched Mar-a-Lago. I'm sure Republicans would have been totally fine with that.
Breaking NYT:

Behind closed doors, Tulsi Gabbard met with some of the FBI field agents responsible for the Georgia election office raid.

During the meeting, she called Trump.

Trump addressed the agents on speakerphone, asking them questions as well as praising them for their work on the inquiry.

What's happen to small boat crossing in January?

The data shows we've seen the lowest number of crossing for a January since 2021.

Plus, we've seen a lot of 'firsts' across the month where plans to tackle dangerous crossing announced last year have come into force, or been used for the first time.

Now that January 2026 is over, we have the first full month of data from this year on small boat crossings in the English Channel.

Ok, let’s do this🙄

We’ll start with an explainer covering:

🕒What is a 15-minute city
🏫What on Earth is going on with Oxford
👽Where the conspiracy theories have come from

And then we’ll look at the Telegraph article

This became the “climate lockdown” theory.

That shadowy figures (including King Charles apparently🤷🏼‍♀️) wanted us to be locked in our homes for the sake of the environment.

Covid was just a dry-run to see if we’d be compliant enough… apparently 🙄

As OxfordSHIRE COUNTY council was implementing this trial, Oxford CITY council were looking at ways to make areas within the city more convenient using the 15-min city idea…

And boom!💥

2 DIFFERENT councils and 2 DIFFERENT schemes get conflated to create a massive conspiracy theory!

Trump sued the BBC for editing one of his speeches.

It makes you wonder why he's not suing people for directly, openly stating that he's a rapist and a paedophile.

Just returned home from the anti-ICE protest in Portland today. A 100% peaceful crowd that the Portland Police Department (PPD) estimated to be "in the thousands" marched past ICE's Portland HQ.

ICE, of course, responded with a barrage of tear gas and chemical rounds to suppress free speech.

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.
