I really don’t know why and how the BBC get away with such blatant reporting. It’s not only biased in favour of the knuckle draggers it’s massively overstating the problem. No push back.

The facts about asylum seekers are in the BBC article

But they’re buried deep enough to be missed

Which leaves a very different impression at the top

Interview with Nigel Farage: "Donald Trump or JD Vance? That's a difficult one because I've known Vance even longer than I've known Trump. But I'd have to go with the boys at Mar-a-Lago"

"The boss at Mar-a-Lago."

Nigel Farage just said the quiet bit out loud.

Please repost if you want the full restoration of our EU Freedom of Movement, which was stolen from us by the worst abuses of democracy in modern British history.

Letter: Hungary’s reckoning with Orbán has finally begun Letter to the editor

Viktor Orbán is out – after 16 years in power.

For Iran, Flexing Control Over Waterway Is New Deterrent

“Iran still has about 40 percent of its arsenal of attack drones and upward of 60 percent of its missile launchers — more than enough to hold shipping in the Strait of Hormuz hostage in the future.”

Yep, he went against advice - he failed to recognize the 3 presidents before him who would not cave to Netanhayu's wishes - they knew better, but no this moron Trump

What should have happened: the REIT paid no tax but the Tice companies holding shares in the REIT paid £98k tax on the dividends they received. What actually happened: none of the companies paid any tax.

Our new report: Richard Tice signed accounts wrongly claiming £98,000 of tax exemptions

A 🧵 with the evidence:

Reform has fallen to 15% in Scotland — their lowest in over a year.
They've lost their national lead for the first time.
Neil Kinnock called them a "posh boys club" with "no design, no practical plan."
Their flagship council is a "horror show."

Is the bubble bursting?
Let's hope so 🙏

If there’s one thing that puts me off this programme it’s the forced enthusiasm and girations the participants are made to do. Dumming down what used to be a pretty decent programme when Wonacott did it.Turned a good programme into a low brow show

This is exactly why Trump will try to keep Brendan Carr as head of the FCC. Trump desperately doesn’t want any negative news on any war initiatives that not be anything but positive. His lies about anything negative will keep coming so the public will basically never know the real truth!!

A dynamic color photograph of American planetary astronomer Dr. Heidi B. Hammel (born March 14, 1960), captured mid-presentation in a dimly lit auditorium or conference setting. Hammel stands gesturing expressively with both hands as she speaks passionately, mouth slightly open in explanation. She has shoulder-length wavy brown hair with soft curls, warm brown eyes focused intently ahead (likely on the audience), and a composed yet enthusiastic expression conveying expertise and excitement. She wears a dark black cardigan over a light gray or pale blue top, a simple necklace with a pendant, small earrings, a watch on her right wrist, and a ring. A microphone clipped to her cardigan indicates a formal talk. Behind her, a massive projected image of Jupiter dominates the screen—showing the planet's iconic banded atmosphere in vibrant blues, whites, and subtle orange-browns, with swirling cloud patterns and the Great Red Spot faintly visible—creating a striking cosmic backdrop that highlights her expertise in outer planet studies (including Jupiter impacts, rings, and atmospheres via telescopes like Hubble and JWST). The overall scene captures her as a leading science communicator and researcher, known for leading Hubble observations of Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9's 1994 impact on Jupiter, extensive work on Uranus and Neptune, and her ongoing role as an Interdisciplinary Scientist for the James Webb Space Telescope, symbolizing wonder and discovery in planetary science.

Green's Sian Berry, "This war with Iran from Donald Trump is an illegal war"

"And Reform and the Conservatives were completely wrong"

"The British people are opposed to this"

"We learned the lessons from Iraq, that getting involved in American aggression doesn't end well"

There are still some die-hard brexiters around, but they're mostly the small boat racists and those stupid enough to be fooled by Farage's nonsense

Dear America,

DO SOMETHING ABOUT YOUR PRESIDENT AND YOUR FECKLESS GOVERNMENT! WHY SHOULD EVERYONE ELSE SUFFER BECAUSE OF THIS INSANITY?

Signed,

West Ham just don’t have to do very much to keep City out

It’s as though they don’t want to score. Just playing the ball around and cross field isn’t going to work. Just hope they don’t get another corner

Unfortunately it’s another turgid display in the first half

Reform plans ‘ideological purge’ of Whitehall | The Observer Fears the party will pack civil service with ‘believers’ rather than the brightest and the best if it wins election

The key to Reform's planning for power is that the strong view of party insiders that the model for a Farage government is "be much more like Trump's second term than his first'

But its a significant political risk - because Trump is unpopular and Trump 2.0 is toxic

They had to get rid of the ones who might speak. And smut films were made.

This thing is so fucking deep.

It's disgusting that so many women were killed or suffer for their entire lives, so their sick AF attackers can live lives of luxury and fame.

Keep pushing hard for the remaining files.
