"Actually our trading relationship with Europe is arguable even more important because they're our nearest neighbours and trading partners"

I’m shocked. Shocked, I tell you.
Adolf Hitler's “Mein Kampf” is still on U.S. Naval Academy shelves. “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings” and “Memorializing the Holocaust” are not.

An order by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s office led to a purge of books that are critical of racism — but preserved volumes defending white power.

An extra 80,000 have had cancer a diagnosis or had it ruled out within the 28 target since July 2024, compared to a year earlier.

Figures show that 76.1% of patients were within 28 days compared to just 71.8% before.

Still more to do, but a big improvement thanks to Labour's efforts.
Wait times slashed for 80,000 thanks to boost in cancer detection
80,000 patients have received a quicker diagnosis or ruling out of cancer in 28 days between July 2024 and January 2025 compared to the previous year.

With all the hype surrounding Final Fantasy IX at the moment, I thought I'd share some pretty great allusions to Norse mythology that can be found in the game. The full blog post is open to all on my Patreon account at www.patreon.com/posts/final-...

All shares hugely appreciated.

Russia murdered 3 people in Zaporizhzhia tonight. A 14-year-old girl and her father are gone. A normal family, just like yours.

As Honest Bob Jenrick tours the country repeating far-right conspiracy talking points about “two-tier sentencing”, here is the letter his own government sent to the Sentencing Council last year approving the very Guidelines he now claims are evidence of “two-tier Keir”.

The man is a fraud.

“More than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.”

Beyond parody.

Yesterday I met with an amazing charity called JAMES’ PLACE (@jamesplaceuk.bsky.social)

They do amazing work in male suicide prevention.

Maybe you know someone who could benefit?
Or maybe you could DONATE to support their life saving interventions with men
