A frankly inexplicable Facebook ad from the official B&Q Facebook page advertising a portrait of Donald Trump for £12.99.

Ah shit, I’ve run out of Trump portraits. Just popping down to B&Q to stock up.

This is, without exception, the only Christmas album that I actively look forward to playing each year. Joy is an astounding track.

Incidentally have you heard the story about him running for JCR president (basically student union president)? He was unopposed for the role but one of my best friends had the inspired idea to campaign for re-open nominations (R.O.N) which we duly did and ended up outpolling him.

More than anything, the MAGA phenomenon is about letting an incredibly stupid man have near-absolute power.

It’s a song about heartache, betrayal, and obsession.

But she’s *also* stuck on a horse.

“I can’t get off my horse” is objectively the funniest opening lyric to any song ever.

Currently drafting a letter to @ndironsmp.bsky.social about stripping back of EHCPs.

The core point is this: we knew before the election that money was tight.

BUT: we voted Labour so they could protect our most vulnerable from the worst effects of it.

It's quite extraordinary to regret your vote.

Fascinating experiment in how much money people can be made to lose before they can no longer afford the luxury of owning the libs.

🧵 This is a perfect example of what I've be describing as disordered discourse, and it's threat to democracy. Politicians are afraid to speak openly about key issues.

Why? Because disordered discourse has captured the system itself—forcing obedience, punishing dissent, and making truth irrelevant.

Elon Musk tells Republicans he isn’t to blame for mass firings of federal workers Trump and Musk appear to make parallel efforts to distance tech billionaire from radical job slashing in government

For the supposed “strongmen” of politics, they’re actually craven cowards.

I am grateful to Michael Rosen for two things: how Bear Hunt inspired an absolutely obsessive love of reading in my daughter; and for revealing where in Wood Green I was able to get the best falafel this world has to offer.

Donald Trump pauses US military aid to Ukraine The fallout from last week's argument in the Oval Office ratchets up significantly as America suspends arms for an as-yet unknown period.

Presumably this was the plan all along and the spat with Zelenskyy in the White House the premeditated excuse.

The cognitive dissonance required to simultaneously hold that (1) we are returning to a world of warring great powers, requiring rapid rearming and a generational shift in posture, and yet (2) we can’t find the £11bn to do it without tactical cuts because fiscal rules.

Look, all I’m saying is that there must be more than pee on that tape.

No grown man - US President or otherwise - would debase themselves THIS much for just a bit of pee.

Sometimes I think we over complicate the ideology and the politics etc. Everything you’re told as a child is that the bullies don’t win. Including, and especially, while you’re being bullied yourself. And then the whole of 2025 has been a circus of geopolitical bullying. So it’s deeply distressing.
