Never go back to someone who's resigned in scandal twice before

Staggering. And how did the Foreign Office think it would work long term with him in post but not cleared to receive confidential documents??? And that be kept secret?

Jingle Jam 'open now' graphic. Text also includes 'expressions of interest' and 'charities, we want you!'. Smaller text at the top reads: 'more info on jinglejam.co.uk'.

Know a charity you'd like to see apply? Tag them below!

Do women run a shorter marathon? No

Totally agree. Its sexist that women are deprived of the chance to offer that 5 set drama. Today's final proves the point - who wouldn't want 1/2 more sets of that?

If they are going to do that then councils will routinely break the law, unless they have another mechanic in mind. It never ceases to amaze me how councils (gov) are able to knowingly break their own laws (speaking from experience)

The idea of the 'big aspirin' reminds me of Spinal Tap 'this goes up to eleven'

Jenrick said that some around the shadow cabinet table had said behind closed doors they knew the UK was broken but could not admit it “because it was us who broke it”.

Great reason to leave mate. Why not help tidy up what you broke

Yeah!!!

Barbs and a betrayal as Jenrick joins Reform after Badenoch gives him boot Former shadow justice secretary shares stage with Nigel Farage in wake of being summarily sacked by Tory leader

I really couldn't care less.

Although how there isn't a by-election is beyond me

If you know, you know! (Rust)

A schedule with a wide variety of events and streams going on over Jingle Jam. Stay tuned for more posts about these specific events.

Now that's a magnificent Jingle Jam schedule! All these wonderful people (and so many more) are going live to fundraise next week. Tune in, donate and give them all your support!

Jingle Jam kicks off when the 2025 Games Collection goes live at 5 PM GMT on the 1st. See you there!

Reform UK’s Richard Tice says children wearing ear defenders in school is ‘insane’ Tice was outlining Reform’s Doge (Department of government efficiency) unit’s progress

Finally a politician unafraid to take on the biggest problem in modern life, the ear defender! Ban these wretched devices! Helicopter pilots, pavement drillers, factory workers must all disarm!!! Such a big problem.

It's honestly so disappointing. Just raise the tax and spend it on improving the poorest communities, and keep telling everyone what you're improving. It's really not that difficult.

A teal graphic with large white text that reads “Jingle Jam” at the top. In the middle of the graphic is a picture of a woman with black and blonde hair in blue clothes (Talia Mar). To the right of this is white text that reads “Dec 4th 10am - 10pm” “Just chatting Super Stream”. Other text reads “/taliamar” and “Join Us!”. At the bottom left and right of the graphic are the CALM and Jingle Jam logos.

This Jingle Jam just keeps getting better and better - Talia's back for another year! Tune in to her channel on December 4th for 12 hours of nonstop music, games and charity goodness on behalf of CALM!

For the third year in a row, this yeen is going to be joining and participating in the @jinglejam.co.uk !
I have a lot of fun every year and really like getting the chance to support charity even when I don't have the money to support them.
Lets see how much this smol indie yeen can raise!

Really enjoyed presenting to creators at @wwf.org.uk yesterday - fundraising for #JingleJam2025

There's only one month until Jingle Jam 2025! You know what that means...we need your Jingle Cats!

Same as every year: submit a video featuring holiday singing cats, and Simon and Lewis will watch the best of the best live on December 1st!

Presumably Sarah likes the John Lewis Christmas advert. It's clearly aimed at me but it's so cringe.

The @trevorproject.bsky.social is back as one of our charities this year, and we're so proud to be supporting them.

With your donations, you'll continue to enable them to provide 24/7 crisis intervention services to LGBTQ+ young people - backed by research, education, advocacy, and peer support.

Really pleased with this!

Carpool karaoke's gone shite
