Surely it's high time for Starmer and Labour to stop playing piggy in the middle between the US and the EU, and condemn what Trump is doing with a loud voice?

At a moment when we desperately need a fragile truce to hold, Trump’s ramblings on Gaza risk having the effect of a bull in a china shop.
The UK needs to make clear that these proposals must be rejected, and that we support international law and a two state solution based on 1967 borders.

In his first term Trump was lazy and so little was done.
In his second term Trump is still lazy, but those around him now realise this means that nothing can stop them.

Thanks to all for your kind remembrances on this awful day. Words will come later. Only feelings at the moment. Mourn and remember him but don’t forget to celebrate too. We won’t see his like again. The man from another place has gone home. #DavidLynch #TwinPeaks

You’ll probably see this screenshot floating around a lot but it really was wonderful to see Lynch put a scene in Twin Peaks: The Return where he has his character literally stare at the camera and say that you should either support trans people or die. I needed to hear that in 2017

Keir Starmer wiping the floor with Kemi Badenoch, yet again.
Ed Davey sounding like the real LOTO, yet again.
Starmer is correct, Badenoch is just throwing complaints with no substance, from the sidelines. Davey on the other hand asks questions with substance.

👀Is Rishi Sunak trying to avoid public scrutiny?
He just switched his new company “The office of Akshata Murty and Rishi Sunak” from a limited company to an “unlimited” company.
This means he no longer has to make his company accounts public 👀⤵️

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election.
Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control

The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.

Important context here:

● "a big farm" is 217 acres.
Now let's see who's angry:
● Clarkson farm is 1,000 acres
● Lloyd Webber farms 4,000 acres
● Viscount Rothermere (Mail owner) 4,700 acres
● Dyson owns 36,000 acres
● over half of farms are less than 49 acres (20 hectares)

The fact that Jeremy Clarkson, Nigel Farage and Claire Fox have involved themselves with the farmers’ protests should tell us everything we need to know. And I say that as a farmer’s grandson.

Jeremy Clarkson on the inheritance tax changes: "People like me will simply put it in a trust, and so long as I live for seven years, that’s fine ... but it’s incredibly time consuming to have to do that, and why should all these people have to do that?”
