The rowboat.
Donald Trump, Mike Johnson and Marjorie Taylor Greene are in a rowboat that’s sinking in the middle of a lake. You can only save one of them — who would you choose?

I left the Tabernacle after @originstorypodcast.bsky.social live entertained, educated and one nudge closer to lighting a metaphorical bonfire under British politics.

A big thank you to @iandunt.bsky.social and @dorianlynskey.bsky.social for an evening that was far too stimulating for a weekday.

Can I please ask all my followers in the US (a surprising number from Kansas for some reason, which is epic) to pass two messages on for your orange grievance merchant in chief?

First - Leave the BBC out of your lying mouth.

Second - #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles.

Please and thank you.

Absolutely spot on, some people - like @carolecadwalla.bsky.social and @peterjukes.bsky.social have been pointing this out for years.

The British public might take notice of this before it's too late, the irony being that it will be the Welsh and Scots who make the English realise.
Farage worked for the Russian state - Russia today

Russia wanted a weaker, more divided UK & Europe

Farage secured a Brexit which gave 10 years of economic decline & political turmoil for the UK & caused division with our allies.

Don't vote for them pretending you're a patriot

New Bearly Newsworthy is out!

From Plaid Cymru’s historic win and the White House’s sneering to Nadine Dorries proving gravity affects both IQ and policy - it’s all here.

Oh, and @monkemma.bsky.social dismantles another nonsense headline from The Express. Beautifully.

34 people killed in 50 days. Their guilt or innocence unknown, for an alleged crime that doesn't carry a death sentence. That's a lot of death.

Very good from @bearlypolitics.co.uk on Tory MP Katie Lam's immigration bill. It removes human rights from those legally in the UK & can deport them for not earning enough. The right is sending up this ballloon to normalise taking YOUR rights away. Be afraid.

"They Will Also Need to Go Home"
A sitting Conservative MP has introduced a bill that would make lawful residents deportable for earning under £38,700 - and Britain’s political class is barely blinking.

Important public service announcement. Reading it might just save a life.
Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on.
