That looks lush! Thank you for enduring Starmer's bullshit so i didn't have to.

I don't know enough about this politician, but this is giving David Cameron "call me Dave" vibes.

Man just won't stop. I think he likes being yelled at. The only people who agree with him in his tedious threads are other economists or boot lickers wanting to look smart in front of teacher.

Britain is becoming increasingly authoritarian. These guys were following police instructions and still fall foul of a draconian law which is set to become more restrictive. The establishment going full tilt in support of Isreal is shameful.

50% of my life has been under one austerity regime or another at this point, either that has to turn around really quickly or you're going to end up with a bigger problem than trite lines being trotted out by vaguely left-of-centre types.

My entire adult life has been one "oops there's another once in a lifetime crisis, time to tighten your belt" after another and you don't need to be a genius to see whose wormed their way out of tightening their belt and for whom that's been mandatory at every turn.

Best wishes for your counselling. It's hard but worth pushing through.

Discussion on BBC this morning, and apparently £8 an hour for under 18's is pricing then our of the jobs market! Fucking ghouls.

The Billionaire, the Bible, and the Battle for Britain: Sir Paul Marshall and the Rise of Elite Evangelical Nationalism He funds newsrooms, churches, and schools – but what is driving ‘Britain’s newest media mogul’? James Bloodworth reports

This has always been there. (See Holy Trinity Brompton, historically — and where Marshall is said to worship.) But now it's in the open, and a driver for (grim) change.

I don't understand why people need to go there. Arson is bad, arson which causes harassment and distress to Jews is antisemitic. It's as simple as that.

There we are, on the TL.

Do you want a world in which you have to admit the Dirty Hippies were right all along, or one where your children are in a frontline trench while you simultaneously queue for bread and try to hide from marauding killer drones?

Proposal: when someone says “I got Chat GPT to do this” we should look at them the same way we would if they’d said “Look! Everybody! Look! I just shat my pants!” Think this would be effective as a social sanction and beneficial in the long term.

Some of the replies here! Basic comprehension escapes so many but they feel the need to weigh in anyway.

Anyone chin stroking about "how force can be used against children" is fucking monster

1 Inquiry for New York Times Good afternoon, My name is [REDACTED] and l am a reporter for the New York Times. I am researching how much money the Palestinian diaspora community has sent to support Gazan families since the war in Gaza began. Does your team track this figure? I really appreciate it. With gratitude, [REDACTED]

Palestine Diaspora Movement Hello [REDACTED] We do not collaborate with The New York Times. Your email asks about money sent to Gazan families "since the war in Gaza began." Let us first correct the premise. This is not a war. It is a genocide. Calling it a war is part of the problem. It obscures the reality of a colonized people being massacred by a military machine backed by the United States and defended, sanitized, and rhetorically softened by institutions like yours. The New York Times has spent far too long parroting Zionist propaganda and laundering Israeli state narratives while Palestinians bury their dead. That kind of coverage does not merely misinform. It helps create the political climate in which Palestinian slaughter becomes explainable, defensible, and forgettable. So no, we will not be sharing any figures, internal data, or community information with a paper that has so thoroughly damaged its credibility on Palestine. Quite frankly, we would rather chew jeans than help The New York Times extract from our community while continuing to fail it. Do not contact us again for this purpose, The Palestine Diaspora Movement Team

lmaooo GET EM

Screenshot of Farage tweet praying for the right outcome for the Persian people. The cunt.

The right outcome for the Iranian people, and consequently the rest of us, is for farage to do the honourable thing. Unfortunately we know he has no honour.

Agreed. I could feel the desperation on the morning shows today, they could hardly contain themselves from advocating for the exclusion of disabled people from events! No analysis, no nuance. Galling from people who are fine with casual racism on the daily.

But it's not *right* to be in Eurovision when countries committing a genocide are competing. Other countries have taken the moral position to boycott, tge UK should do the same. Regardless of the innovative approach of the contestants.

I'm not simping for Putin either, the man's a monster, but the rise of the oligarchs hollowed out the Russian military to such an extent that they need North Korean 'volunteers' just to stand still in Ukraine. Our generals have been crying about the state of our military for my entire lifetime.

I wonder what their definition of warmongering is if it's any different to this. Strange that the Russian army is simultaneously ready to march across all of Europe but incapable of advancing further into Ukraine. Schrodingers Russia.

That whole meal looks absolutely delicious. Jealous.

They want people to believe that communities are homogeneous so that anyone veering even slightly away from their norms (they get to decide what these are) can be easily othered and ostracised. This works with any community they choose to target.

Already blocked by one of my lists so I don't feel I'm missing out.

Khalil and Noreen Suffering in Gaza Please join us in defending Khalil and Noreen's kids from the brutality of war, winter, hunger and illness. Noreen suffers from damaged cartilege. She can't move easily. She also needs a corneal trans...

If you're heading to church today please consider sending £5 towards this family. Khalil has been getting into debt as he tries to get food and medicine for his family. The situation is impossible to imagine over there.

Let me be more explicit about this: Gabriel Pogrund is scum who should be hounded and pelted with rotting fruit through the streets like Cersei Lannister for reading out the shite he was sent by Morgan McSweeney as a national emergency. He knew exactly what he was doing then.

They should be named. I want to know if I have a person in my neighborhood who has no moral compass, who doesn't draw the line at killing children.

Something compelled me to make this
