Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...
No second state visit for Trump
This is UNBELIEVABLE. Keir Starmer has just handed Donald Trump a letter from King Charles, inviting him for a second state visit to the UK. It’s totally unprecedented, and I was so outraged when I he...

“When fascism begins to creep in around us…. Trusting your instincts, naming the threat and sharing your fears isn't just cathartic - it's empowering. It might even save your life.”

No excuses. No equivocation. We call it what it is. And them what they are.

I had so much fun talking to Giles Brown about transnational kleptocracy - Marbella 'sunny place for shady people' angle included... thank you for having me! A big plug to David Hooper's book, too: an excellent review of libel law, SLAPPs and related issues.

Brexit has obliterated a large chunk of trade between Ireland and Great Britain.

And - no real surprise, surely - it has hurt the UK significantly more than it has hurt Ireland.

The greatest act of self-harm in our history just keeps on giving.

After a long day’s work I have only just tuned in for today’s news.
The very first thing I see is this.
I am both shocked and aghast.

Ok so Trump won again, Musk is buying up democracy, media is overdosing on Farage and Tory sour grapes…
BUT
We kicked the Tories out, the right is split, Brexit hovers over the shredder, Trump and Musk will trip up over their monstrous egos and we moved to Bluesky.

There’s always hope.
Cheers all🎄🥂

Stodgy dullwit, David Frost, tells business owners that their struggles with the latest Brexit-red-tape-shitshow are the EU’s fault (rather than the woeful mess he cooked up with Johnson to get him into power).
He just lies to their faces, saying this is why we left.

New level of loathing unlocked.

I'm so proud of the Bylines Network for filling the gap in REAL local journalism.

Since setting up in 2020, we've increasingly helped champion local issues for public good.

I can see by our live stats that this piece is currently being read by dozens of people in Cambridge. Lovely.

Dear Keir

A “bulging benefits bill” which you claim is “blighting our society” is in fact supporting people either Disabled or acting as carers, or young people badly let down by years of cuts, & gov failings by those you seek to emulate.

Elon Musk threatening the British government in his latest attack on British sovereignty and the rule of law gives just a taste of what world he would like to live in.

One where a wealthy few control everything and are untouchable by any law in any land. He and others like Trump want to be gods.
