Portable thermostats are great until I put a hot cup of coffee next to ours and the heating goes off because apparently it's 24 degrees in here.

I guess the challenge here is that while this might be personally lucrative for MAGASuperFan1488 from Uganda (which fine I guess, go get that bread Grifter King), the West descending into technofascism is not going to be good for ANYONE.
Those deaths because of USAID cuts weren't in Kansas.

Please can the Labour Party take note and stop spouting crap that appeals to the 10%.
10% of white people think you have to be white to be English - but 84% of white people disagree with that. Two-thirds of ethnic minorities think Englishness is a civic, not ethnic identity, though 1/4 of minority groups join 1/10 of the majority group in seeing it as ethnically defined (YouGov)

Maybe Keir should demand the heads of major US news networks any time they imply Britain is on the brink of civil war or that we live under sharia law. Or does it not work both ways?

The fact that the BBC has made serious culpable errors does not negate the point that there is a real and concerted right-wing media campaign to destroy it. Both points can be true at the same time and the campaign would not end even if the errors did.

Can’t quite believe the Chancellor is seriously considering slashing support for home energy efficiency as a way to cut fuel bills 👀. Locking people into cold & leaky homes which will cost them more to heat & decimating the insulation industry at same time. Total madness 👇
