Using this painting to depict wealth is irritating me. It's a depiction of the contemporary equivalent of a packet of cigarettes, a can of lager and a kebab.
"According to the…annual Harris Poll, for the 1st time, a majority of Americans believe billionaires are a threat to democracy. A remarkable 71% believe there should be a wealth tax. A majority believe there should be a cap on how much wealth a person can accumulate." www.nytimes.com/2025/12/14/o...

For non-Brits: Our political/media class bet absolutely everything on it being fine to demonise and destroy the anti-racist left, who were getting too big for their boots, because the Sensible Moderates could co-opt and control the racist right. And they have now fucked it into the upper ionosphere.

It occurs to me that the narrative that British Jews support the genocide in Palestine might be about as accurate - not very - as the narrative that women support the cruelty of trans exclusion.

I feel like it needs to be acknowledged as widely as possible that while trying to invite a war with Iran, Israel is still just shooting and killing dozens of unarmed civilians at it's own food distribution points in gaza every day. There is just no accountability.

Moe Tkacik has traced the Air India plane to a terrible-quality run of Boeings that have started failing all over the place, but that managers under the new low-quality Boeing era pushed through production anyway because "none of these planes are staying in America, they’re all going overseas".
The latest from our star Boeing reporter Maureen Tkacik: turns out a whistleblower said it would take 10-12 years for 787s to start failing. The one that crashed into an Indian hospital today was built in 2014. prospect.org/economy/2025...
One of the Dreamliners That Gave a Boeing Manager Nightmares Just Crashed
Whistleblowers always warned that passengers would pay a price for Boeing’s tyrannical corner-cutting, especially with the planes shipped overseas.

Feels like a story that the whole of football should be talking about: a player legally in the US who has been deported without due process to foreign prison... for having a Real Madrid tattoo.
This is an athlete Trump doesn't want you to know about.
He's a pro soccer goalie with no criminal record.
He legally immigrated to the US, fleeing persecution from Venezuela's dictator.
But the White House disappeared him to El Salvador — because of a tattoo: www.youtube.com/watch?si=zNc...
