Reform: The Party Made by the Worst People in Britain For the Worst People in Britain

Was there a Fantastic Furniture nearby? 🛋️🤷🏼‍♂️

I don't think I'll ever get over Clarence Thomas ruling on cases related to Jan 6 knowing that his wife was an active participant in the attempted coup.

Or ruling on cases related to government regulations and a wealth tax knowing he took gifts from billionaires.

It's a disgrace.

This is what’s left of the historic town of Bint Jbeil, Lebanon after Israel passed through it

A three-minute display of absolute soullessness. She won't criticize even a blunt call for genocide, if it comes from the leader of her own party.

If journalists had any integrity and courage, they would boycott the White House Correspondents Dinner. It should be as empty as a TPUSA event.

Ossoff: "How does American politics really work? It's coin operated. Money goes in, favors come out. It's been running on secret money, corporate money, billionaire money ... all of this gave rise to a depraved president who exploits this rot to empower and enrich himself"

Stuck in the middle • Frank Bongiorno Could the Liberals’ Deakinite dilemma reshape the party system?

Me on One Nation and its effects on the Coalition - and an historical analogy. (And so good to see Inside Story back in action)

Anyone know whether today is a ‘ceasefire’ day or a ‘destroy your civilisation’ day yet?

It’s not that these people still exist. That’s just biology. It’s that they are still being paid to shit in their own hands & start clapping.

This is the reason the stock market is completely disconnected from the real economy.

It’s a mark of how completely normalised the corruption & depravity have become that we barely bat an eyelid at the thought of two *property developers*, one Trump’s nepo baby son-in-law, being sent to represent the USA in peace negotiations with Iran. Sometimes it all hits you afresh.

Amazon, which saved $4B in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, has cut 30,000 jobs since last October.

Verizon, which saved $2B, plans to cut 15,000 jobs this year.

Meta, which saved $3B, plans to lay off 20% or more of its workforce.

Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.

When Angela Rayner underpaid £40,000 in stamp duty, Richard Tice said it was "morally completely indefensible” and she should resign if she had “any moral decency”.

Now we learn he set up four shell companies that let him avoid paying £100,000 he owed in tax and to then transfer the cash to Reform

Israel tried to assassinate British journalist Steve Sweeney while he was reporting from Southern Lebanon.

As you can see there is complete flattening behind him so he was the target.

News organisations need to be unflinching in their use of strong language to describe Trump. Too often we have normalised the abnormal. Mea culpa. I did it myself at the BBC and often came up against institutional timidity. My weekend read.

When will autocorrect realize it’s realise?

Trump steers America into a ditch but shush, don’t tell the media…

On any given day, you might as well roll a die to predict whether Donald Trump is going to claim total victory; imminent victory; a negotiated ceasefire; an imminent ceasefire; new attacks; crucial negotiations or imminent crucial negotiations. The only certainty is that he’ll be lying.

I Completely Support This Petition….

The lesson from the Hungarian election is that racism as a mode of government always has a shelf life, because all it can achieve is the conversion of fear into hate into violence, and violence is very tiring.

Roger Sollenberger: Péter Magyar, the new Hungarian prime minister, says CPAC was paid by the Hungarian government and will not be any longer

Oh my what a Schlapp in the face this is

You know I knew that Door Dash woman looked familiar

Cooking up a storm it seems.

Headline on Hollywood Reporter that reads ”Paddington 4, Escape From New York' Reboot in the Works”

I misread the headline as one movie and got very excited for a moment…

‘Everyone is Replaceable’: Death Rattles Oregon Amazon Facility A worker died at Amazon’s Troutdale warehouse last week. Employees were told to look away.

A worker died at an Amazon warehouse in Oregon last week.

For more than an hour, workers were instructed to continue working as the man lay dead.

One worker wanted to help, but a manager told them to “Just turn around and not look. Let’s get back to work," according to @thewesternedge.bsky.social.

This would’ve been a great place to raise a family, but instead a wealthy couple will collect egregious amounts of passive income from bachelorette parties. Reference #32487

Barnaby has always been a massive dickhead but he's really become an obnoxious, condescending jerk

I realize this is confusing, but the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran isn’t a domestic political story.
