With the latest mass shooting at Brown University, this might be a good time to mention that Bill Clinton’s assault weapons ban reduced mass shooting deaths by 43% - but after George W Bush & Republicans let it expire, mass shooting deaths spiked by 239%.

17yo Farage bullying a 9yo. With this and the yelling in assembly about pupils called Patel thing, I see why he minds the coverage. It’s not the racism, which he can bluster. It’s the cringe. He was cringe and weird at school. His “friends” probably shrank away from him when he did this stuff.
"'Where are you from?’ he asked. Within seconds of offering my rather confused and sputtering answers, he had a clear response: ‘That’s the way back to Africa,’ with an accompanying hand gesture pointing towards a place far away."

People get extremely annoyed when I point it out (I think they think I’m endorsing the other guy, cause we don’t do nuance) but if this was Biden, it would be the cover image of literally every American newspaper tomorrow.
Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.

Or that having high tech successful industries (as per the industrial strategy and growth mission) requires research and researchers… ?
Does the government perhaps understand that this is very bad for Britain?

"Nigel Farage urged to root out Reform links to Russia after jailing of Nathan Gill."

What a joke of a headline. The first person Farage would have to root out would be himself. Next would come Arron Banks for his Russian embassy visits and shilling for Putin.

Last week Trump said: "We'll sue [BBC] for anywhere between $1bn and $5bn, probably sometime next week."

That renewed threat was led a good deal of news media.

No news report yet that any suit has been filed.

This story about a Reform councillor in Northumberland has about three different massive stories in it.

He's accused of ripping off his constituents to the tune of £140k.

He owes his own council nearly £40k in unpaid tax.

His own council is suing him.

The government should be ashamed that its migration policies are being cheered on by Tommy Robinson and Reform.

Instead of standing up to anti-migrant hate, this is laying the foundations for the far-right.

I questioned the Home Secretary on how she can be proposing such obviously cruel policies.
