I’m a New York Times subscriber. They have an amazing amount of foreign correspondents and aren’t afraid of calling cnut out for what he is. wordle and the other ‘puzzles’ are a bonus, but Connections is mad! I don’t think I’ve ever had more than a two day streak. It’s so Yankee, like the Cnut trump

I was never a "Dynasty" fan, but had I known Carrington Manor was a death trap I would've probably watched this show.

Peaky Blinders…… underwhelmed. For a production that had so much depth, this was stunted and lacking.

Nigel Farage in answering Nick Robinson's question about why he believes Britain is broken gave an analysis of falling net migration that is demonstrably factually inaccurate.

"It is so broken and its declining so quickly that anybody with a dispassionate view can see it. It is quite interesting. Just look at the net migration numbers. 'Oh isn't it good net migration is coming down?' But do you know why? It is because there is an exodus. There is now an exodus.Those who are of a situation and a financial position to have a choice are now fleeing the country in numbers".

This is factually incorrect. Net migration fell year on year by 465,00 in the most recent Official of National Statisitcs figures: the year to June 2025. This was not because of an "exodus" (an increase in emigration). It is because immigration fell by 401,000 (to 898,000 from 1.299 million the previous year). That accounts for 90% of the big drop in net migration. The increase in emigration by 41,000 was a minor component. Most of the increase in emigration was of non-EU nationals. British citizens made up a third of emigrants, but there was no significant increasse in British emigration, which was at very similar levels in 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025: it is not a significant cause of the drop in net migration.

Nick Robinson did tell Mr Farage that he was exaggerating the number of people who don't speak English - and BBC Verify did produce an analysis showing that was a five-fold exaggeration. But this central incorrect claim about immigration and net migration was not caught in the programme, or before broadcast.  

It should at least be scrutinised and corrected afterwards - so that an accurate account of why net migration fell (primarily a reduction in immigration visas to the UK) can be communicated to the audience.

Jerome Flynn has an atrocious dialect coach or is just plain crap at a Scottish accent. It’s making me cringe every time he speaks and it’s making 1923 hard to watch.

Far right grifter drinks a pint to pretend to be working class

🧵 1/ Not enough people are linking Reform & MAGA.

It’s time to correct that by talking about Nigel Farage, MAGA money, and a US PR firm with direct ties to Bannon.

It’s not patriotism and pints it’s a shared plan and international far-right coordination.

Grab a cup of tea and strap in👇

Reform is a Limited Company

Farage owns 53%

It was formed in 2019 to push for a “no-deal Brexit”

It wants to reintroduce the Liz Truss budget

It wants to privatise the NHS

& invest in fossil fuels

Close the BBC

& break International law

It’s a scam

Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar.

In 2025, we have to say yes to the power of the state youtu.be/27YFXWQq6uk?... The state is failing because it is being run by politicians who have set out to undermine it. We need a properly functioning state, and have been denied it for too long.
