Since I haven’t seen anyone mention this: When the U.S. commits war crimes it puts our troops in danger also, as it gives a green light to other countries that they can do the same to us
Speaking on Nick Robinson's Political Thinking podcast on Friday morning, Badenoch suggested it could be "argued that" the Budget was unchristian. When pressed on the remark, the Tory leader explained: "In early Christian times, there was no state or welfare, so I think that you can argue that, actually.
This is how the Mail has covered a 70% fall in net migration.
The Government should stop kidding itself it will ever get credit for being anti-migration. They could cut numbers to zero and there would still be front pages blasting them for making the UK a socialist wasteland no one wants to come to
“Why did white people separate themselves from Nature, turning Nature into an object to be raped and stripped of commodities?” read one sign outside COP30 in Brazil. Eliane Brum reports.
This is outrageous from Keir Starmer.
‘Russian links to Reform need investigating’, he says. So why is his government still fighting case now in Grand Chamber of Strasbourg court refusing to have such an investigation into Russian interference ??

If a doctor causes the death of one patient, they are struck off at the very least.
Johnson should face prosecution.
The Covid Inquiry finds that if Boris Johnson had called the first lockdown even one week earlier then it could have saved at least 20,000 lives.

That's not an interview it's a demonstration of unabashed sycophancy. GB News doesn't know the meaning of the word journalism.
Interesting to see so many great British patriots right now begging an American president to bankrupt one of Britain’s last remaining truly national institutions.
The BBC isn’t perfect but it belongs to all of us and plays a key role holding the powerful to account.
The Liberal Democrats will keep defending the BBC against those who want to destroy it, both from the inside and outside.

In an interview about Palantir's creeping involvement in the British state and the NHS, I told @prospectmagazine.co.uk: “Its business is death and destruction. This is not an organisation you want running the democratic jewel of the postwar period.”

Farage is flagging.
He’s losing councillors and by-elections, and his polling’s plateaued.
But we all need to fight him harder. A month ago I wrote this blog about 10 things you can do to help defeat Farage - keep doing them, it’s working! -

Exasperated. Gutted. Furious. Terrified. Sometimes swear words are the only ones that fit.
Our delightful government - who we put our trust in - is u-turning on THE easiest Nature action *ever*.

Chris Packham, "This country voted in a party with a massive majority and a mandate for change"
"All we see is Labour kowtowing to the far right. This causes me enormous concern"
"I'm frustrated, I'm angry, and I've frightened"
"And I get more scared every single day"
Far-right commentators reacted in shock to the murder of Charlie Kirk, claiming his killing is 'not what America is'.
"I'm sorry, this is exactly who you are," say The News Agents.
"You have the most toxic political environment in the world."
Great to see that government WILL ban moorland burning on peat deeper than 30cm, and over a much greater area than previously
Big win for communities who've suffered the smoke + floods stemming from this Victorian practice
Only losers are ~150 wealthy grouse moor owners

🔴The Fake Patriotism of Nigel Farage
Despite his claims to love this country, few politicians have done more to undermine its interests and assist its enemies than the leader of Reform

On Dartmoor, good geology hides a lot of problems.
The latest official figures show that just 0.1% of Dartmoor's nature reserves - its SSSIs - are in favourable condition.
As @tonydartmoor.bsky.social says, 'Dartmoor is dying'.

I utterly condemn the reckless attack on Iran by the United States that can only lead to further dangerous conflict in an already volatile region. There is no international legal basis for this unilateral action that poses a serious threat to international peace and security.
By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference.
But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

Labour backed swift bricks when past Tory govts blocked them. Now the Tories are backing them and Labour govt is blocking them.
Absolutely deplorable game playing with a threatened species.
