the fascists have been lying, cheating and changing the rules to their benefit for years. turnabout isn't just fair play, it's the only way to maintain some semblance of a civil society.
Thanks for having me for the Bristol launch of THE ASSET CLASS, @bookhaus.bsky.social!
THE ASSET CLASS, my first book, will be published by @wnbooks.bsky.social on 9 April 2026. It’s a narrative investigation of private equity, a secretive and relentlessly destructive wing of finance that penetrates almost every aspect of our lives - and it’s available to pre-order now!
There is no obvious heir apparent to Keir Starmer.
It may not be the best reason he remains in post.
But it is the reason he will remain in post.
I for one am delighted.
I’ve lost count of the number of posts that start ‘I’m not a Labour supporter or voter …..’ and then go on to support Keir Starmer. Praise him and compare him to the other leaders at this time.
I want to thank each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart 😘
OMFG I had to go and check that this ACTUALLY happened.
Since when does the BBC ever do chyrons with a political party's branding, rather than their own? Not to mention this is during a pre-election campaign purdah.
(h/t @iainsol.bsky.social)
And the first thing Farage would do is abolish the TV licence. GB News as the state broadcaster!
This is a party with eight MPs, only four of whom were elected as Reform candidates.
But the BBC has always supported Farage, and portrayed him as a mainstream politician despite his nasty views.
If anyone in Britain wants to know how Iranians feel about the Straits just try substituting the word Channel for Straits.
Looking like 2024’s record sea surface temperatures may soon be broken - and that’s *before* the El Niño predicted for later this year kicks in, further supercharging climate impacts.
It’s time for emergency action at a wartime scale both to prepare and to cut emissions.
Happily, the government has been listening to Sam.
Ed Miliband will be doubling down on clean energy today (giving a speech at 11) announcing moves to shift more legacy renewables on to Contracts for Difference…

Just can't summon any interest in this Starmer story. It's like the media's obsession with Wrexham FC all over again.
Thames Water wants to set its own rules. The Board of Ofwat is split over whether to let them. Tip the scales in favour of people and planet: email the Board now, and urge them to reject Thames Water's creditors @weownit.org.uk tinyurl.com/85m396az&nbs...
I just signed the Greenpeace petition calling on the government to power the UK with homegrown renewables. Every conflict abroad sends our energy bills soaring at home. act.gp/4sv5VOP

I often repost other artists while brilliantly forgetting to plug my own stuff then moaning about my lack of sales. So with that in mind look upon my works ye mighty and think that would look smashing in the living room. marswasrubbish.etsy.com
You gotta give to the GOP.
They trained their voters to hate “libs” so much they would gratefully accept every manner of corruption, lawlessness, cruelty, ineptitude, and criminality, and cheer it on, so long as it is their team doing it.
Another day, another list of announcements and achievements from our hardworking Labour Government. While the media focussed on old news and resignations they suppress all the good news.

The prospect of Farage as PM obviously worries me, but what truly *terrifies* me is it legitimising Reform as a major governing party. Because right now, without him, they're nothing. But that changes if they take power
Tax Dodge Tice.
I’ve feel judged by Luna. Either that or she knows I had lemon cheesecake with double cream.
Charlatan Farage
It seems like a Prime Minister who continues to get his corruption trial delayed for years because his government is engaged in wars has a personal incentive to keep wars going as long as possible.
Buttigieg: I’ll give the Turning Point folks a lot of strategic credit for going to a lot of different places. Going to these college campuses is kind of the equivalent, in their minds, of the way I feel when I go on Fox News.
The difference is, when I go on Fox News, I’m telling the truth
This is the kind of leadership America should have. I’m disgusted every day seeing the treasonous criminal filth that infests the US govt today.
