When your brand is so mistrusted that rebranding yourselves as Estate Agents counts as an upgrade

Complaining about & blaming Keir Starmer for a long-scheduled, still uncertain, six month distant increase in fuel prices literally *hours* after calling for more war in the Middle East is quite the flex. These are not serious people.

Powerful speech from Keir Starmer. He genuinely wants to make the UK a better place. #StandWithStarmer. #LBC @mrjamesob.bsky.social #BBCNews #SkyNews

Up until September I really rated Burnham. His behaviour at Conference was bizarre. His behaviour last week was off the scale. Who in their right mind would do what he did. As far as I’m concerned I haven’t got a jot of interest in him or anyone supporting him. #StandwithStarmer

Hold the Line - Tell Your Labour MP to Stand Firm Email your Labour MP to support stable government. In a world where Trump tears up international rules and Reform waits in the wings, Britain cannot afford political paralysis.

I just emailed my Labour MP to support stable government during this critical time. You can too: holdtheline.org.uk

These #QPR fans in Perth #Ashes2025 will know all about supporting their team as they face a seemingly impossible situation. #England all out for 172. Yes, one hundred and seventy two. #AUSvENG

A helpful map of cricket positions so people can pretend they understand cricket

Strange to me how the British media churn out millions of articles demonising Harry & Meghan. But whenever the Royal family are caught out in a scandal they expect H & M to come back to clean up the family’s image.🤔

Farage vows to scrap indefinite leave to remain, placing thousands at risk of deportation Reform UK plans to force non-citizens to apply for visas with high salary thresholds and no access to NHS services

Thousands of Londoners have indefinite leave to remain.

They have legal rights and are our friends, neighbours and colleagues, contributing hugely to our city.

Threatening to deport people living and working here legally is unacceptable.

It is a truth too often unacknowledged, that a populist in possession of the public's rage must be in perpetual want of an enemy.

That was your starter for ten. Now three #UniversityChallenge bonus questions #Punk each worth five points #TheDamned #TheSlits #X-RaySpex (not forgetting Leeds post-punk funksters #GangOfFour)

Great banner for #QPRBRE Maybe the next Gerry Francis/ Gary Waddock/ Dave Clement/ Kevin Gallen is out there wearing the hoops while Stan looks on #QPR @qpr.co.uk @loftforwords.bsky.social @qprreport.bsky.social

No better way to kick off a new series of #UniversityChallenge than New Rose #TheDamned #Punk - #TheSlits and #X-RaySpex too!

So farewell then to Marti Cifuentes - and thanks for a job well done at qpr.co.uk. Our club has evidently failed to match your ambition #EFL #QPR @loftforwords.bsky.social @retroqpr.bsky.social davebarton76.bsky.social @qprpod.bsky.social @davidmcintyre76.bsky.social @qprreport.bsky.social

Our latest Ricardian Bulletin for members of the Richard III Society has an article by @jllaynesmith.bsky.social on this battle. Richard de la Pole, known as the White Rose, was considered the last Yorkist and died at this battle.

My initial euphoria that #QPR legend Jimmy Dunne hasn't been sold for a paltry £3m has been tempered by the realisation he's out of contract in the summer. We must offer him an improved deal, he must sign it... then his legacy will be preserved #QPRBLA @qpr.co.uk

Show me someone pretending that Prince Harry hasn't kicked Rupert Murdoch's arse from here to eternity & I'll show you a Murdoch lackey/Trump apologist/bare-faced liar. Some people may even fit all three categories!

It really baffles me why some think it's okay to be shitty to a generation of young people who gave up THE MOST to protect their elders, have had THE CRUELLEST possible transition to adulthood, are getting THE LEAST amount of state help, and are facing THE WORST future prospects.

It's going to be a couple of years at least. The whole point of Tories (government, not voters) is that they run institutions down until they can't function and then sell them.
Labour have "to run" them back up again and with the current budget that's going to take a while.

Fact-checking is not censorship.
Requesting evidence is not censorship.
Refuting falsehoods is not censorship.
Stopping a lie from travelling halfway round the world before the truth has got its boots on is not censorship.
But Zuckerberg's grovelling to Trump will sure as hell lead to censorship.

British media are complicit for permanently over platforming niche minority politicians.

“Media has been captured by a noisy minority, whose views are constantly reflected, because they happen to comprise the readership of national newspapers. But that doesn't reflect the nation. It just reflects a small - and shrinking -demographic, that still buys newspapers.”
