Ed Miliband has said he'll “double down, not back down” on government’s clean energy mission in the face of critics calling on him to change course

The Energy Sec said "solar panels, heat pumps and EVs are not woke, or a left-wing conspiracy, or even a Marxist plot. They're actually common sense"

It must be Tuesday.

RFK, Jr.: "It's amazing how quickly the flu spreads in crowded classrooms. It's a total mystery. No one knows why."

PETE HEGSETH: "It's a well known fact that the flue *can't* spread in a crowded submarine. Jesus said that. Or did I read it on the bottom of a beer bottle cap? Another mystery, man!"

When I got home earlier there were 2 youngish Ladies at my door, turned out they were from the Green Party, we chatted a bit & I said I have voted Labour for 42 years, they didn't believe I was old enough, I said I'll be 61 soon, they said they didn't believe me.
I might vote Green now 🤣🤣🤣

Whatever you think about Starmer you have to acknowledge the British press will attack any Labour leader on any pretext.
If they cured cancer Richard Littlejohn and Nick Ferrari and the long list of others would attack them.

Well let's see how this strategy of telling "white liberals" to "fuck right off" works out in the local elections

Annual flu vaccine no longer required for U.S. military, Hegseth says The move alarmed some public health experts, who warned that it would weaken troop readiness.

NOT SO FUN FACT—half of all U.S. war casualties during WWI were due to influenza. Today—Trump’s War Secretary remove the flu vaccine requirement for all U.S. military. Plus, bragging about this to all enemies is just absolute idiocy. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

KEVIN WARSH: Uhm, we try to keep politics if I'm confirmed out of the Federal Reserve

WARREN: I'm just asking a factual question

WARSH: I believe this body certified the election

WARREN: That's not the question I'm asking

FTSE bosses receive 18% pay bump this year in global fight for talent Companies are also watering down ESG elements of pay plans as boards reassess whether such awards ‘make sense’

FTSE 100 CEO average pay up 18% to £5.89m, less weight attached to environmental, social, governance targets.

Did your pay rise by 18%?

Workers produce wealth but get crumbs.

Need worker elected directors, worker vote on exec pay to secure equitable distribution.

WHY DID BBC BREAKFAST GIVE REFORM UK A SPECIAL GRAPHIC?

A small detail in a brief report sparks some big questions about what the national broadcaster is doing during the run up to local and national elections.

''Downing Street attempted to withhold sensitive intelligence from Boris Johnson when he became foreign secretary, the BBC has learned

But she put him in that post and no-one really questioned it, even when we went straight to a supposed Ex KGB mans party in Europe having just left a NATO meeting.

KERNEN: You're saying you need at least the prospect for a signed deal today or tomorrow or else you would resume bombing Iran?

TRUMP: Well, I expect to be bombing. The military is raring to go.

The thing is Russ.. AI produced crowds for Reform are the same as BBC / MSM journalists.. they don’t ask any awkward questions or challenge them on their back of a fag packet policies 🤷🏼‍♂️

👇🏼👇🏼We must cause a sh*t storm of complaints with BBC & Ofcom over this

BBC using Reform UK’s logo / colours broadcasting racist, anti migrant policies. To use a political parties logo/colours instead of BBC’s is unprecedented, specially as elections loom😡

To complain👇🏼

Remember?

Fred and I stand outside the shop talking about rhubarb. He describes how his is growing. I describe mine. He says I can all of his because last year he threw it in the bin. I say I’ll take whatever he’s got. The shopkeeper arrives.

Early stroll. Horizon like a one-bar electric fire. A curling wave of orange peel. That snail’s long journey. A blackbird’s sculpted song. A dropped piece of string as long as a piece of string.

Looking forward to the BBC Proms already! As ever, I’ll try to listen to as many concerts as I can, to nurture my soul and fortify my spirits. @bbcsounds.bsky.social @bbcradio3bot.bsky.social

Nigel Farage Has Personally Accepted £675,000 from Foreign Sources Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has accepted more than half a million pounds from foreign companies, governments, and donors while serving as an MP, DeSmog can reveal. Since July 2024, when he was elect...

“Farage rarely turns up to do his actual job. Yet he finds time to jet off around the world on his donor’s private plane and trouser half a million quid while families struggle. Reform are not on your side. They’re just in it for themselves”

It’s so obvious, it hurts.
