Farage in Falkirk

Disgusting. Who on earth would choose to welcome him????

For all you woke antifascists who are thinking of coming to this beautiful place for a visit. Don’t stay at the Inchyra. They are happy to host Farage and Reform 🤢🤮

Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream.

Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads.

Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?

Immigration is good for us. So why is it so hard for politicians to say so. Here’s my take.

Please tell me everything you hate about LinkedIn, folks. I’m thinking of writing about it. Do share this around to so I reach more people than just my own Bluesky circle and hear from them too. Thanks! X
I fucking hate LinkedIn. A site full of thirsty corporate gobblers. Even worse is the LinkedIn post person. I’d sooner fire myself into the Sun wearing nuclear bombs than log on to that capitalist porn site to read someone stroking themselves off over their own badly written, jargon laden piss-prose

The data shows Brexit was a massive mistake and badly hurt the economy. We're all paying for it. It was Nigel Farage who sold the lies that it would make life better. How can anyone still listen to him about anything?

People keep asking why I still make these videos every day at the age of 67. The truth is simple: our economy is still deeply unfair. This is why I keep going: because another world is possible.

Imagine a bunch of bright folk who considered it their sacred duty to challenge conventional wisdom, hold the powerful to account, correct lies, bring new voices to the fore, add nuance to debate and never defend the indefensible

And then write about it with style

That's called a functioning media

Probably the most important but neglected scandal about Mandelson.

Epstein was close to Peter Thiel. Thiel had secret meetings with Cummings and Johnson before Palantir’s 100m contract

Mandelson’s Global Counsel was pitching Thiel’s Palantir to Starmer.

What a carousel of cronyism
