A superb piece from the ever brilliant David @bajr-badger.bsky.social Settle yourself down with a cuppa and enjoy the taking apart of the lunacy that is pseudo-archaeology. #Archaeology 🏺 www.bajr.org/raiders-of-m...
It's very simple. The people costing all the money, are the people with all the money. Not the people with hardly any money. It really shouldn't need explaining.
Just epically, heroically, clueless

I've compiled a roundup of what to eat, watch and read for my newsletter, including a selection of cookbooks due to be published this autumn! I'd love you to subscribe. tales-from-topographic-kitchens.ghost.io/what-to-read...
Bunch of people who never had to uproot their entire lives and move thousands of miles away ought to stop pontificating on asylum and immigration

After ranting about Substack, I then had a horrible fear that I'd actually failed to sign up for @nicmiller.bsky.social's replacement newsletter on Ghost which just landed in my in-box. Luckily, I had, which is good news. And so should you. tales-from-topographic-kitchens.ghost.io/what-to-read...
You'd like to think it was the Torygraph reporters sidling up to him in the pub and buying him three extra double vodkas that produced this kind of headline, but it appears it isn't...
😍😍😍
Aaaahahaahahahah
suddenly a whole class of people whose entire lives are built around speculative investments and crazy financial instruments are making a huge fuss about the idea that you promised someone something in an absolutely trivial fashion
"concerns about the national debt" are such a political coup, man it's literally the wages of empire! real tangible resources flow into the metropole in exchange for, like, a managed global currency! (and military bases and shit)
How is this allowed, or is even legal to do? Detained near Gatwick for 29 days, and niw his NIN is taken away! Wtf? www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...
Whatever happened to the anti-racist, pro-migrant, campaigner and human rights lawyer Keir Starmer and why has he vanished just as the far-right return to our streets? bylinetimes.com/2025/09/02/r...
this is one of the dumbest argument these arseholes trot out every time: driving licence it's not the same thing you morons
Hold on, here's one in English:
"A few weeks after the Brexit referendum, a leave-voting friend of mine told me what the biggest benefit would be. “We will never hear about immigration again,” he said." ~AA www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Didn't expect to be name checked by @zackpolanski.bsky.social in his acceptance speech today - but everything he said was right! The Machling women are feeling really positive about Zack's election & look forward to straight talking, progressive, politics with a #green agenda at it's very heart! 💚
Only idiots want to make the world a better place, Real intellectuals know that’s impossible so you just have to make sure that the suffering of others doesn’t bother you. The less you care, the more philosophically enlightened you are
Nooooo
Why do they love been ridiculed by everyone online? Stupid and bizarre of her!
I've actually been to her house and this photo I took shows she's actually underselling things a tad.
Exquisite response tbh
When I moved to the UK it was explained to me repeatedly and emphatically that flying a lot of flags or particularly caring about flags was a weird US thing that most British felt was uncultured or unnecessarily
😆😆😆😆 Not a carbonara then
We're cooked
"Polanski said the idea came from the client – who turned out to be a Sun journalist – and that he did not charge them. He said that rather than literal enlargement, the process was meant to help with bodily self-image."
Not everyone becomes JK Rowling or Linehan. Some people see their wrong ways and change for the better. To help the most powerless in society. He is a trans ally for ffs, plus I believe in him!
For a stupid Sun stunt in 2013, 12yrs ago, he apologized in 2019. “The apology is to recognise that issues of misogyny and women’s body confidence exist in society and articles like that in The Sun are not helpful,” Mr Polanski added. People change and some change for the better.
Huge congratulations to new @greenparty.org.uk leader @zackpolanski.bsky.social! It's been an honour to lead the party for the last 4 years and now I'm so excited to play my part in this next chapter, working with the new leadership team as they take the Green Party into an exciting new era.
Get ready for this incessant shit
Good stuff from @jonnelledge.bsky.social: I feel this part should be obvious but doesn’t get stated often enough:
Great results and what a team @zackpolanski.bsky.social @mothinali.bsky.social @rachelmillward.bsky.social Overwhelming desire for energetic socially & economically radical green politics. Looking forward to a higher profile! But also solidarity to the four amazing MPs who I’m sure will get a boost
🤩🤩
I want, and we need a beautiful green planet for all! Controversial? I don't think soooooooooooooooo!
More of this

The only politician that call that bastard farage a charlatan, the truth that no one else says.
New @greenparty.org.uk leader @zackpolanski.bsky.social says "people are exhausted of never feeling secure" and this is exploited "by charlatans like Nigel Farage". And he warns Labour: "We're not here to be disappointed by you. We're not here to be concerned by you. We're here to replace you." ~AA
Now is the time for all our members to get behind the whole new team, whoever we voted for. Let's support them as they grow, learn and lead together, and give this country the collaboration, collective leadership and compassion needed to drown out all the voices of hate, greed and division.
Congratulations also to @rachelmillward.bsky.social and @mothinali.bsky.social, our new Deputy Leaders. Both be brilliant assets to the leadership team. 💚
Huge congratulations to @zackpolanski.bsky.social elected as the next Leader of @greenparty.org.uk 👏👏 Greens are on the up. We have already achieved so much, but there is more to be done offering a true alternative to this dire version of Labour. Let’s get to it! 💚
Gay, Vegan, Hackney it’s like rage bingo from the telegraph
He lives in a city? Not in a forest? What a phony "green"! Boo!
It's not only infuriating -coz it is insane, don't we need nature and planet Earth lads?- but also stupendously idiotic description, as this is The Green Partyyyyyy!!!! Hellooooo!
Oh no, NOT THE ENVIRONMENT
It’s astounding how, when we live in a world of climate emergencies, being an eco anything sounds so fucking snide

Good morning all! A new episode of The British Food History Podcast is now live! My guest is food historian Mark Dawson, and the topic is Derbyshire Oatcakes – once a key part of the Derbyshire diet. Available on all podcast platforms, Quick link here: podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/d...
I popped up on the Recipes Project podcast, Around the Table, talking about food history and cooking historic foods. It was great fun. Have a listen! open.spotify.com/episode/7rss...
Excellent homage to Derbyshire oatcakes - once a staple starch for all but the very richest, in Northern counties where wheat didn't grow well, with Tudor food historian @drdobba.bsky.social & @neilbuttery.bsky.social. #history #food share.google/Jp2eU6PKRtCR...
Sadly, Polly has the reverse Midas touch...
@gralefrit.bsky.social You have to see these! A friend of mine has been collating a series of images entitled "Things my students have written turned into Philomena Cunk quotes" and they're just glorious.
The body of evidence showing that when centrist parties adopt the priorities and talking points of the far right, they torpedo themselves is vast and powerful. Yet Keir Starmer's Labour Party seems determined to ignore it. A few examples in 🧵: theconversation.com/how-should-l...
😆😆😆😆
Another day, yet ANOTHER stupid, pointless announcement on immigration from this stupid pointless government. Today: you are a student - we're going to write you a stern letter about how you better not be thinking of staying! Insanity. Racist, cowardly, insanity. #r4today
Christ, this bacon looks awful. I'd be very cross if someone offered me this godawful bacon. Rubbish. Look at the water coming out of it! Bleugh!
Good God, this looks awful. Its an insult to everyone who likes bacon and food in general.
Concern over low birth rates was what the theocracy in Margaret Atwood’s Handmaid’s Tale used to come to power.
Are you young, highly educated and driven, and want to contribute to our stagnant economy with its aging population and low productivity? Well out you go
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'm afraid I can't tell you!
Pakistan accounts for 1 percent of global emissions but it’s consistently bearing the brunt of the climate crisis, it’s so egregious how not enough is being done to try and save the planet
haha noooo I didn't buy it! I don't know where I'm going to put all these things if start buying them! 🤣
Monday morning at work...nightmare I tell ya!
With the amazing Irish food historian Regina Sexton!
Here's my dad's family in Ireland just before they emigrated to England, early 50s. Dad is bottom right. One of thousands of families who have emigrated here for multiple reasons. Escaping poverty for my family. I hate the anti-migrant stuff. I thought we were better than this. I was wrong.
Today, the ghosts of the Nemi ships live only in their photographs, and the few remaining artefacts that survived the fire. They form a haunting parable for those who would use the remains of the past for their own ends, while taking no heed of their warnings.

Oh good God, really?
Ahahahahahah
is it not exhausting to be so racist and xenophobic all the fucking time. do these people never just sit and enjoy a burrito. watch a butterfly. the mental, moral and ethical gymnastics it requires must wear them all the way down
Ancient Ireland... "this country was so luxuriant in grasses that if cattle were allowed to feed too long, they would burst”. So did Pomponius Mela wrote. Join me to discover the foodways of Irish ppl! open.spotify.com/episode/5O3q...
if people can’t apply for family to join them after their successful asylum applications, more women and children will be forced to make illegal and dangerous journeys to the UK, rather than sending male relatives first who later plan to reunite with family. this is: obvious.
Yvette Cooper looked at current British asylum policies and thought, what we need is for *more* children to die in the English Channel
Lascaux Cave in France contains paintings from the Paleolithic era, 17,000 to 22,000 years ago. The paintings depict people, animals and abstract symbols and you couldn't do them today because of woke.
A bit of fire
is it only asylum seekers our Labour Prime Minister would object to living next to or would the sentiment apply to black and brown people in general? if merely the former, would he like to explain how he knows people he sees, say, in the street, actually are asylum seekers and not citizens?
I knowwwwww!
Say hi to my little camembert friend! With little rosemary "hair" for complete authenticity!😆😆😆
"In some ways this row serves a useful societal function: this country has depressingly few unifying symbols any more, and since Vera Lynn and the Queen are both dead, fighting with Americans on social media is one of the few things that can still reliably bring us together."
Someone should introduce this motherfucker to Surinamese food. His racist head would explode.
‘Far right racist’ thugs tried to break into hotels hosting Asylum Seekers. There have been arrests. These hotels are some of the nearest to Heathrow. Where exactly do they expect them to stay? Shouldn’t every single politician be condemning this? Every single one!
This is the peoblem he moved to US so why is he bothering us?
Africa-born Carswell, aka Popeye, helped inflict Brexit on us and then fled to the US, from where he posts racist comments on social media.
I can't believe a guy with his lack of charisma and that face can be so so so racist...! Well i can as he doesn't have any other talent...a black hole for charm and presence he resorts to the simplest thing. Attack the innocent.
