Father, grandfather, still working, still attempting to play guitar, still ageing disgracefully. They say you become more right wing as you age. They are quite wrong.
OK. How many of you automatically gave Trump the finger when his face just came up on Sky promoting their coverage of his impending visit?

Chris Filth had many years in government to call for a national enquiry into grooming gangs. I’m not saying he is wrong, but if his government was so active on the subject, why was he not setting one up years ago? @C4News as our esteemed theorist community likes to say, I’m just asking questions…

Sorry - me again. Just seen Tice’s PPB ON C4. What an absolute steaming pile of appallingly argued, unfounded, outright hypocrisy. With an ‘expert’ struggling with basic communication (let alone facts). I don’t understand how anyone takes him seriously.

@carlbovisnature.bsky.social bet you enjoyed C4 News tonight! #sandeels #puffins

@susanchubb1.bsky.social why can’t Labour understand this?!?
What an extremely relevant graph for what happened yesterday
BONUS GRAPH
In 2024, Reform voters strongly disliked Labour – and vice versa.

Supporters of other left-liberal parties also disliked Reform.

It seems hard for Labour to make Reform voters like them (if they even could) without alienating their current or potential base…

We’re all with you, Lois #LoisvSteve
Day 4 of Lois asking Steve Reed to join her at the football. ⚽

University of Greenwich research shows public ownership of water could save us over £3 billion a year! 🤯

Come on Steve, listen to the evidence and the 82% of us who want water in public hands. 💧

Best use of a violin in rock? Close, Darryl Way. However, David LaFlamme in White Bird a narrow winner.

This - from that esteemed organ, Private Eye - sums up most of the internet every day. Lord Gnome should be ennobled; oh, wait…

Have I got this right? Trump tips off his disaster capitalist mates (and his own broker) and they sell at top of the market. 6 days later, another tip - they buy at the bottom and boom! They make 100mn - one hundred fucking million dollars - in a week for every billion. Cure for Crohn’s, anyone?

Knock me down it’s a feather: Elmo’s apology to the sack of bricks is the first thing he has said that has made me smile.

“Im going to shoot a cheetah, and bring its head back as a trophy.” Said no decent person ever. Ban it, and put a bounty on no-person-ever’s balls.

Hands up if you just reflexively gave the middle finger to the still of Trump at the end of C4 News.

On the subject of the climate, may I politely remind you all of ‘The Road to hell’? I know he’s known for that stupid Christmas song, but this one is eerily prophetic.

@andyburnham.bsky.social your work in Manchester is done and the whole country needs you now. Kindly stand for election in the next available seat and give us all reason to hope again.

This.
Truth & Lies.

Mix Musk's interventions with Starmer's unpopularity, is it possible to separate the truth from the lies?

Nick Robinson was magnificent this morning. I’m not sure Jenrick realises just how utterly pathetic he was (suspect self-awareness not high on his list of personality traits) or that he’ll be needing extensive repairs to his rectum. Ah, the joy.

Whatever happened to Roger Waters? Just wondering…

For those of you (unlikely) who don’t know Al Stewart (sorely missed), listen to Time Passages and YOTC. Wizard!

Oh goodness me I miss Al Stewart. A poet of our times.

Please sign if you are in the UK to end this senseless cruelty
This is the grotesque reality of the badger cull - a needless slaughter that's seen over 230,00 badgers killed since 2013.

SHARE if you agree it is time to end the cull for good.

For uk friends: if you’re wondering why Ukrainians are fighting so hard to keep Russia out, have a look at Ukraine the seeds of famine 1933 on PBS America right now.

Thank you to all the kind people who have created the various Blocklists of people/bots/trolls whose first priority is hate on here. I hope this continues; I am not up for arguing with fact-free morons - but very much in favor of decent, open discussion and opinion.
