I'm just relieved nobody is talking about how I said I bought a house in Clacton, then admitted it was in the name of my girlfriend, Laure Ferrari, even though she couldn't afford £885,000, which conveniently meant I avoided £44,000 in tax.
Please don't share.

www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio... This scared the hell out of me, especially when I thought about who the 'tech bros' are that are racing against each other to develop it
But it is the Daily Mail so not exactly a stretch of the imagination
Screen shot of a daily mail poll asking if Britain should rejoin the EU. Currently 84% in favour of rejoining
When you first visit the page it doesn’t show the tally until you vote; perhaps twitterers are misinterpreting that?
Yes is winning on 58%
Mail is running a poll on whether the UK should rejoin the EU.
Takes seconds to vote and it's going hilariously well...

The same week the NYTimes was devoting its significant resources to producing this ridiculous piece about Lauren Sanchez Bezos's call for rich people to not worry and be happy, Ryan Hass, an independent journalist in Oregon, was investigating this horrifying story about a death in an Amazon plant.

A cartoon image of Trump with the following poem. I do not like you Donald Trump. I do not like your big fat rump. I do not like your stupid hair. I do not like you anywhere. I wish for you to go away. I wish for you to have to pay. I wish you would take all of your peeps, And disappear for 10,000 weeks. You do not make our country great. You only spew nonsense and hate. Pinocchio had nothing on you, But the Epstein files most certainly do.

Landmines are coming back to Europe - quietly. Countries like Poland are already moving toward using them. Others may follow. They don’t stop killing when wars end. We can still stop this, but we need to act now. action.wemove.eu/sign/2026-04...

This is about ten minutes walk from home, we are really fortunate!
Tory MP Matt Vickers invited constituents to a coffee morning to discuss their concerns, but only if they paid £5 for the privilege. The cash would go to Vickers' campaign fund. No one should have to pay to see their parliamentary elected representative.

The amount of space junk we’ve left in orbit, and on the moon is depressing. We can’t even look after the bit of space that’s near us!
What will the tens of thousands of delivery and taxi drivers do instead?
April fools... but the only joke is Labour refusing to nationalise water to protect our rivers and lower our bills
Today the government has opened its consultation to bring about a ban on so-called “trail hunting” which acts as a smokescreen for actual hunting.

The news has moved on, but ICE is still in Minneapolis.
My neighbors are still patrolling streets, driving strangers to work, and providing aid. As a photojournalist at @propublica.org, I wanted to know: What do they look like in their daily lives?
So I picked up my camera 👇
