Person sacked AFTER ...insert something innocuous-sounding, and preferably something anti-woke...

The innocuous-sounding part will inevitably be just the first incident in a long chain of events, or one of many things the person did wrong

"We get to do what we want, folk who are different can fuck off"

Its the same basis of imperialism.

Humans should have evolved past this by now.

The richest 10% of Americans own roughly 87% of stocks.

The richest 1% alone own roughly half of all stocks.

It's worth pointing out once again that the stock market is not the economy.

Zack Polanski nails it! There's plenty of money around. It's just that too much of it is concentrated in the wrong hands...

That ad is open bigotry - "won't wheesht" in this context is a slogan aimed at hurting trans people. You must know that. What the fuck are you doing?

Marvel are George Lucasing Avengers Endgame with deleted scenes and a re-release before their next Avengers movie.

Has re-cutting something good ever worked?

So funny that all growing parties say "vetting is being stepped up, going well"

Except in cases of groups like reform, vetting is guaranteed to find something on any candidate because, literal nazis, worst humans, etc

Actor Robert De Niro on Donald Trump: “It’s all an act. He’s deeply insecure. He’s a malignant narcissist. He’s a socio-psychopath. He’s dangerous. Shame on Republicans that don’t have the balls to go after him. He’s an outright fucking criminal.”

Starmer's position has been shougly for months, but lie after lie being exposed here means its untenable

He's building the bunker isn't he?

Football blazers : we can't do anything about the wrestling at corners.

Point of order @mrjamesob.bsky.social the Vatican is not a country. It is the capital city of the Holy See. Ambassadors are to the Holy See not the Vatican City.

People talk about the state of X but FB is absolutely rancid too.

People playing an algorithm to fool the hard of thinking into extreme and evil positions.

Everything is -bait on there. Everything motivated by hatred.

A tweet arguing that a statement about stopping aid to Ukraine will be remembered as part of a broader history involving Russia, with an image of JD Vance seated onstage during an event.

This man must never become president.

New poll predicts winner in all 73 Scottish seats – see the map A NEW poll has predicted the winners in all of Scotland’s constituencies – suggesting Scottish Labour and Reform UK could pick up several seats.

I'm no polling expert but this new MRP poll of Holyrood voting intention looks like bollocks. There is no planet on which Strathkelvin and Bearsden is a contest between Reform and the Lib Dems. This poll also has the Greens standing in every constituency.

Paying taxes is patriotic.

We need to say this more. We should be proud to contribute and fund society, we are all better for it.

Certainly better than having a 3rd lambo in a garage gathering dust.

Sarwar going for the "you are a liar" stance.

The lad has been in politics for his entire life and this is the route he went down?

Never interrupt your opponents when they are making mistakes....

Never let it be said that the Scottish press is politically biased…

Heat pumps are the most efficient heating technology ever invented.

They harvest and compress pre existing heat in the air, ground or water and transport it where it is needed.

That energy is all around us.
