Cartoon. Autumn is shown as a small figure with some brown and yellow leaves on top of their head. Someone out of frame calls them. But Autumn is distracted, looking at their phone. Voice - "Hey Autumn!" Autumn - "Hmm?" Voice - "Autumn?" Autumn - "gimme a min" Voice - "It's a bit warm isn't it?" Autumn - "It's September, September can be warm" Voice - "It's actually November" Autumn - "What?! How did that happen!" Autumn stops looking at the phone and hits a big button marked "Sudden cold button"

They've totally lost it.
Screenshot of a post by Welsh Labour. It reads: "Reform UK is out to divide communities. Plaid is out to divide nations. Different ties, same old politics of division. Don’t let either win in the Caerphilly by-election next week." Below this is a poster with photos of Rhun ap Iorwerth and Nigel Farage with the caption "Dividing our Nation - They're on the same page"

Oh, come on! They know this is bullshit. They know!
Section of a letter from David Lammy to Sarah Champion. It reads: "The Government has carefully considered the risk of genocide, including when permitting exports to the F-35 global programme. The high civilian casualties, including women and children, and the extensive destruction in Gaza, are utterly appalling. Israel must do much more to prevent and alleviate the suffering that this conflict is causing. As per the Genocide Convention, "the crime of genocide occurs only where there is specific ‘intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group." The government has not concluded that Israel is acting with that intent.”

This is insanity.
Two headlines side by side on the BBC News homepage. The first reads - "At least 365 arrests at protest against ban on Palestine Action" The second reads - "Eleven more die from malnutrition in Gaza, Hamas-run health ministry says"

When I saw the Farage thing yesterday I said to myself, "Give it two days and Yvette Cooper with be saying this". But I was wrong. It was one day.
Screenshot from the BBC news headline from yesterday that reads - "Farage calls on police to share immigration status of charged suspects" Screenshot of a BBC News headline from today that reads - "Guidance for police on sharing suspects' ethnicity must change, home secretary says"

"Palestine does not meet the international law criteria for recognition of a state, namely, defined territory, a permanent population, an effective government and the capacity to enter into relations with other states."

And why do you think is, shit-for-brains?
Screenshot from the BBC news website: Some of Britain's most distinguished lawyers have warned the UK government that recognising a Palestinian state would breach international law. In a letter to Lord Hermer, the attorney general, a group of 40 members of the House of Lords, many of them lawyers, write that proceeding with recognition would be "contrary to international law" because important criteria have not been met. The BBC has not been able to obtain a full list of signatories, but according to The Times they include the prominent barrister Lord Pannick KC, the former Supreme Court judge Lord Collins of Mapesbury, the former justice minister Lord Faulks KC, and Lord Shamash, the Labour Party's solicitor since 1990. Part of the letter says: "Palestine does not meet the international law criteria for recognition of a state, namely, defined territory, a permanent population, an effective government and the capacity to enter into relations with other states. "This is set out in the Montevideo Convention, has become part of customary law, and it would be unwise to depart from it at a time when international law is seen as fragile or, indeed, at any time."

Screenshot of a post by Gaza Freedom Flotilla. "We have lost contact with The Handala after it was attacked by the Israeli occupation in international waters. Nineteen civilian crew members and two journalists aboard the humanitarian vessel have been forcibly abducted. This is a blatant act of piracy and aggression against a peaceful mission delivering aid and solidarity to Palestinians in Gaza. More updates to follow."

Altered version of Emily McGovern's well known "let's not talk about politics" cartoon. The two characters now say : Person A - "let's not talk about Doctor Who anymore, I can't stand it." Person B - "same" They sit in silence and then Person A - "The thing is though" Person B - "Those fucking idiots"

This makes me sick. Maybe it's all in my head, but I do feel like a lot of people have stopped watching and/or voting in Eurovision, while at the same time, others are making a point of voting for you know who "to own the libs".
The result of the UK audience vote for tonight's Eurovision which has Israel in 1st place.
