(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

I have no idea why Prince William is sitting down with a rapist and convicted felon. I don’t give a single shit he’s a working Royal. When men sit down with rapists and smile for cameras you’re normalising rape.

Today is the Observer’s 233rd birthday. And the first of 4 strike days. I grew up in South Wales in the shadow of the miners’ strike. Extraordinary to be joining a picket line outside what I believed was my liberal progressive news org all these years later.

We’re so grateful for your support & ✊

"Brexit has ruined this country, and now the majority of Britons thinks so too."

RP if you are that majority.

700+ journalists at Britain’s only liberal newspaper(s) believe that something has gone so profoundly wrong in their own organisation that 93% of them have voted to go on strike

Almost impossible to imagine a similar article being written about a male (read: any other in history) Chancellor.

One argument in this article includes a man saying her master’s course wasn’t very hard. And that because she ‘only’ got a 2.1 at Oxford, she shouldn’t have got in.

Camilla (who got 1 O Level) receiving an Honorary doctorate in Literature from Princess Anne (who got ‘a handful of O Levels and 2 A Levels) at the University of London.

Both entirely unqualified for any academic position

For services to Literature?

WHAT SERVICES TO LITERATURE?
A book club?

Word of the day. Or week. Or next four years.

Fuck Off whinging if you’re rich as hell.
Seriously, just Fuck Off.
Some of us can’t even turn the fucking heating on when it’s snowing because your precious Tories & Brexit have fucked us all.
Pay your fucking taxes, shut the fuck up, you’ll fucking live, unlike some of us.

Important context here:

● over half of farms are less than 49 acres (20 hectares)

● "a big farm" is 217 acres.

Now let's see who's angry:

● Clarkson farm is 1,000 acres
● Lloyd Webber farms 4,000 acres
● Viscount Rothermere (Mail owner) 4,700 acres
● Dyson owns 36,000 acres

Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me.

I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc

🤔 I wonder if the Daily Mail owner’s 4,700 acres in Dorset has in any way influenced this front page.

One of the forms of hybrid warfare Russia is developing to use in Western nations is cyber-attacks to disable sewerage systems, flooding the rivers with shit. How, in the UK, would we detect them?

It's my opinion that Victoria Derbyshire should replace Laura Kuenssberg on every single BBC show she is on, and she should do it right now.

I'm sure you agree.

Lets see what people think.

should art ever be destroyed? a debate in the RA magazine in which I argue, carefully, that to make it inviolable disempowers it.
