YET AGAIN Liverpool bailed out late. Surely their luck is gonna run out? Salah has been awful but gets the winner. And that is an absolutely insane error from Hannibal.

Sky News says police are "overwhelmed by the numbers". Met coped perfectly well with 2x as many at the pro-Gaza rally, 5x as many at the anti-Brexit march, and 15x as many at London Pride.

They're not overwhelmed by the numbers. They're overwhelmed by the ratio of violent thugs in those numbers.

If I were the UK Government I would simply not route all my communications through the platform whose owner just called for regime change in Britain and said "fight back or die"

Our democracy is too precious to be a plaything for foreign tech barons.

Elon Musk doesn’t care about the British people or our rights. He only cares about himself and his ego.

People on the left and right have lost their minds RE Charlie Kirk.
September 11, 2025 at 4:28 PM
Man America is in a crazy place. I massively disliked Charlie Kirk and thought him to be a dangerous mouthpiece for unhinged propaganda but shooting him is wild. Have to condemn it.

No one would be confused about what is happening here if they saw it in another country.

The BBC are constantly fawning over Farage's every move despite Reform only having four MPs. Our national broadcaster should reflect the whole country, not just one man’s ego.

So, Reform Party chair, David Bull (seen here wearing a panty pad of sympathy when Trump got shot on the ear) and anti-vax crank, Dr Malhotra (who thinks the Covid vaccine gave the royals cancer)…
🤡⚠️wrote Reform’s “health policy” together🤡⚠️

How TF is Reform not being laughed out of the door?

BBC coverage of Reform is becoming increasingly problematic. And goes beyond the usual white noise. Continuous soft balling is not balance, it is a fundamental abdication of duty. Farage's tax issues, cranks given platforms at their conference, climate change denial. All need coverage. Most haven't.

Things I care about Keir Starmer:

The nhs
Social care
A fairer society
The uber rich paying a bigger chunk of taxes
An agenda set by RW media
A disproportionate amount of air time given to Farage and Reform

Things I don’t care about:

Boats
Small boats

I’m down so bad for Japan that I’m watching YouTube videos like “Night time rainy walk in Kyoto” to try and satisfy my brain 🥲

“Nigel Farage says….” has been the headline of the decade.
Look at what he does, ffs.
Look at his tax affairs.
Look at his grifting.
Look at his lies.
Look at his prejudice.
Look at his allies.
Look at his manifesto.
Look at his Brexit.
He is the embodiment of personal greed and national failure.

Got so excited when I head about a new James Bond game. Just seen the gameplay sneak-peak and oh man it looks baaaaaaaaaaad. Like something from 2008 with improved graphics. Gameplay looks awful and I know Bond can be over the top but it’s just too ridiculous.

If Rayner broke tax rules then yep, she has to go. But… where the HELL was this energy from the British media when the Tories were openly taking the piss for a decade without any meaningful scrutiny? Also now giving Farage an easy ride when he’s got plenty of interesting monetary arrangements.

Two things can be true at once. Rayner was foolish in her conduct and right to resign. It’s also true she was always despised by much of the right wing press because she was a working class powerful woman.

Farage dodged parliament, went to the US, slagged off the UK, lied to Congress, grifted for donations and hoped to persuade the US to punish us for the Online Safety Act. And got his arse handed back to him.
You’d think our ‘patriotic’ media would go nuts. But no. Some quiet mumbling. Beyond feeble.

I've a feeling Mr Farage might very much be regretting his trip... round about ...

Rep. Jamie Raskin tears into Nigel Farage as a "far-right pro-Putin politician" and a "Donald Trump sycophant and wannabe".

Overt racism on our streets, flags as threats, Reform strutting around like they’re in power already, toxic radicalisation by Musk on X, politicians howling to leave the ECHR and to hell with the consequences…
How can the govt just meekly nod along?
FFS and for all our sakes, stand up to this shit.

Question to Zach Polanski at the leadership announcement:

"Q: How can you take on Nigel Farage when your policy on immigration is so different?"

Everything wrong with British politics and media summed up so succinctly in a single absolutely unhinged question.
