It's SO beautiful!
BBC accused of 'extraordinary' anti-Green bias after party say the Laura Kuenssberg Show scrapped a promised interview with @zackpolanski.bsky.social on Sunday.
Green sources say the show also refused to interview Polanski after he was elected as leader last month

just go an ig ad for a serum "clinically proven to reduce the appearance of expression lines"
...EXPRESSION LINES!
god forbid my face hold any evidence of having ever smiled or laughed in my lifetime
Happy #NationalPoetryDay!
I wrote a short poem about writing in celebration ✍🏼
Adam Raine, 16, died from suicide in April after months on ChatGPT discussing plans to end his life. His parents have filed the first known case against OpenAI for wrongful death.
Overwhelming at times to work on this story, but here it is. My latest on AI chatbots: www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/t...
Reform UK, which has a grand total of four MPs, was just given an uninterrupted platform for an hour and a half on the BBC and Sky News channels, in order to talk about its plans for mass deportations
When was the last time the Greens (with four MPs) or the Lib Dems (with 72) were given the same?
we really do need to figure out how this guy managed to create an environment where he can say "i wasted an amount of taxpayer dollars so large I can't even tell you how much it was" & it doesn't cause immediate national outrage
this! don't call me a "denialist", "pessimist" or anything negative if I have all the empirical evidence and receipts while the other side shows up with "potentials", "possibilities" & other buzzword. call me an expert, a scientist or a realist
Completely devoured the audiobook of @adelewalton.bsky.social's 'Logging Off: The Human Cost of our Digital World.'
A personal yet thoroughly researched and accessible look at growing up with social media, big tech, gen-AI, workers rights, and more. Felt equally terrifying and galvanising 📚
Thank you so so much Chris, that's very kind
I recently performed my poem about Ethan Hunt to a crowd while a pianist accompanied with a relaxed Mission Impossible theme and it was literally the best moment ever!!
Yeah I screenshot them from his phone so I could keep them 🥹
I love this so much! Talking about them is how we keep them around, thank you for sharing that.
3 years today since I lost my dad. I wrote this 6 months after and every word is still true.
Trying to live good and do good, always with you in mind.
For Anas Al-Sharif, and every Palestinian journalist killed by Israel 🇵🇸🕊️
JK Rowling tweeting got a boycott of M&S, stretching facts to the breaking point, and making the world a worse place for absolutely everyone.
The employee asked the girl and her mother if they needed help shopping. That’s it. That’s all. The misinformation, the insinuations (because the facts are inconveniently benign) are EXACTLY what was done to lesbians in the 80s. This is the product of hate and fear, not reality.
Fantastic! Just got my ticket.
And the fact that just a local corner shop or LITERAL POST OFFICE is now a vape shop too is just so depressing.
Ended up writing a poem about it.
Thank you so much, it's really nice to hear that it resonated with you. Love and warmth to your wife too.
Between 5-6 was always dinner time for the family growing up. When I learned people had it at 7-8 I was AGOG!
my post office has had a small refurb, and where there used to be colouring books and stationery there is now a locked glass cabinet filled with vape pens and labubus and it made my heart a little sad
Oh my goodness that sounds beautiful!
Thank you so much! And very true words.
Thats so lovely, thank you for the comment.
Thank you Paddy!
Thank you!
Thank you so much, that's so kind!
