I know it's a bit harsh, but wouldn't it be easier for phones to be locked down at the time of purchase. Then parents unlock what they see fitting for their child. Some parents may say oh that's too difficult, well it's time to wise up.
That's why we've launched a campaign to balance the BBC: www.libdems.org.uk/bbc
We need to do a lot more than just identifying if these attacks are from abroad. We need to take a serious look at system design. Decoupling, air gaps etc. Take some tips from the forces
Keep it up tice and thanks. A great way to increase our membership. (see bio)๐
Dirty Don ... 'The caption, apparently from Pashcow, reads: โJeffrey showing early talents with money + women! Sells โfully depreciatedโ [redaction] to Donald Trump for $22,500.โ'
The BBC is our national broadcaster yet Nigel Farage dominates 60% of the BBCโs website mentions of opposition leaders. The BBC mustnโt boost his divisive politics. Ofcomโs rules for election time balance should apply all year round. Support our campaign to balance the BBC. bsky.app/profile/libd...
More fear and the stoking up of prejudice causing fear and danger in Nuneaton as American footballers are targeted as asylum seekers www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/local-n...

On National Emergency Services Day, we pay tribute to the 2 million emergency service workers who dedicate their lives to ensuring the safety of others. Thank you for the vital work that you do.
Come on treacle town you are better than that, for goodness sake. Normal people of Nuneaton must be really embarrassed by the actions of the local knuckle draggers.
Chancellor, isn't a bit like a gamekeeper turning poacher
Makes me feel sick. Tell you what if any kiddy fiddler like trump or epstein messed with any of my daughters, I'd dread to think of the consequences.
It would be interesting to know the views from people living in Durham. Or even crafty making some sort of public statement on behalf of local government.

How long do we have to wait for Nigel Farage to apologise for Brexit and the mass media to ask why he won't
Iโm not big on Tennis, but the US Open is already trolling Trump with a diversity honour guard.
Sad that all due to trump and security measures, so many ticket holders are missing out on some great tennis. Ticket holders should contact Rolex for a refund
trump is so popular they have to censor the booing at a tennis match lol.
I always had trump down as a cricket guy. You know, no balls and caught in the slips sort of guy.
Rick Davies, Supertramp frontman and co-founder, dies aged 81
Yet Reform + Tories are now spuriously denouncing the very issue they disastrously created between them. Farages' championed Brexit has an awful lot to answer for with regards to the UKs current demise... though the msm constantly appear to give him a free ride... ๐
"panty pad" well Bull would need one, if you get my drift.
So, Reform Party chair, David Bull (seen here wearing a panty pad of sympathy when Trump got shot on the ear) and anti-vax crank, Dr Malhotra (who thinks the Covid vaccine gave the royals cancer)โฆ ๐คกโ ๏ธwrote Reformโs โhealth policyโ together๐คกโ ๏ธ How TF is Reform not being laughed out of the door?
US open: Trump was pretty gutted that the Spanish player, Carlos Alcaraz, won the tournament. He really hates Hispanic people to an insane degree.
Protests expected as 51 Israeli arms makers among exhibitors at London trade fair
The U.S. Open menโs tennis final got off to a slow and confusing start on Sunday as thousands of fans were forced to wait outside Arthur Ashe Stadium because of enhanced security for President Trumpโs visit. When Trump was shown on video screens, fans unleashed a loud round of mostly boos.
Oh dear, a lot of boos for trump after the first set.
Stands are half empty at the start. Unreal given the price of the tickets
Trump causing chaos at the US open. Massive queues due to security checks. I wonder how long trump will stay awake.

Farage would abolish the banking regulator introduced to protect consumers, & stabilise the sector after the 2008 crash. More evidence he doesn't stand for working people. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/sep/05/reform-uk-could-strip-city-watchdog-of-power-to-regulate-banking-if-elected
'low teens' familiar territory then.
Led By Donkeys have got Fartrage's number.
Passed through Solihull yesterday. 1 in 3 of the Union Flags were upside down!!! How can you be a patriotic if you are that stupid and not know which way round it should be. Quite disrespectful, to be quite honest.
Max Windsor-Peplow is Richard Tice's Office Manager. He's paid under a Parliamentary budget for what should be Westminster office work. However he's being 'loaned out' as a Reform UK field-based Campaign Manager.
โFarage has given two contradictory versions โ one that he bought it and the other that his girlfriend owns it. If the second one is correct then he has ยญengineered a massive saving on stamp duty, larger than the one that forced Angela Rayner to resign.โ โ @goodlawproject.org https://bit.ly/4m81Zzt
Nigel Farage stands up for free speech by having a protestor dragged out of the Reform conference.
How can it be normal when it has misfits like Truss, Jenkins, 30p Lee, mad nads, Widdecombe ... then you have farage who sucks up to Trump. That doesn't look normal to me, more like an admissions list for an asylum. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Yep, recycling plastic is practically impossible
Oh.
Reform are increasingly considered mainstream because Labour and the Tories arenโt attacking them. Preferring instead to โunderstandโ their supporters grievances. Thank goodness the LibDems are clear how dangerous Reform are, and will take them on.
There's Stadium Announcers and then there's Pete who's made few appearances in this neck of the woods.

This actually happened: they dressed up the truck with a guy tied down on the roof, while the driver and passengers wore moose heads. They drove down Interstate I-35 and caused 16 accidents. Yes, they went to jail, yes, they were so drunk, and yes, men cannot be left alone. =======================
By the looks of the smirks on that table someone set him up to spout bollocks. Come on who hasn't done that sort of thing to an arrogant boss before.

Reform Farage got his arse well and truly spanked. โthis Putin-loving free speech impostorโ โa fringe politician from the United Kingdomโ "think twice before you let Mr Farage make Britain great again" โYou need money from Elon Musk in order to get elected prime minister of Great Britainโ
Farage dodged parliament, went to the US, slagged off the UK, lied to Congress, grifted for donations and hoped to persuade the US to punish us for the Online Safety Act. And got his arse handed back to him. Youโd think our โpatrioticโ media would go nuts. But no. Some quiet mumbling. Beyond feeble.
BBC's front page doesn't seem to mention this (I wonder why), but at least the Guardian does. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
They don't write on the walls like they used to. Two places I recall had some fine literary work. A GEC factory in Coventry and the student bar a Warwick Uni. Different styles but equally funny.

Theyโre having a grand old time with Xi right now and Donnie is besides himself jealous!
Clean bowled there. The smirked look on the of the women face on the left says it all.
Private Eye. That's the day ruined, and I haven't even got to the Reform page.
Oh balls, looks like I'll get nothing done tomorrow.
Tories call for suspension of Reform UK councillor over ice cream van inquiry
Reform parents instilling their family values. Treating their offspring to an extended lunchtime in the local spoons, get pissed, stagger outside, shout abuse. Itโs people like that that give treacle town a bad name.
I am 76 & I have had most of these vaccinations at one time or another. Also vaccinations against Covid, Tetanus, plus Cholera & Yellow Fever when travelling in foreign countries. These prevented me catching horrible diseases & dying a gruesome death. They did not harm me, they protected me!

To be honest Farage hasnโt the faintest idea about most things. The poor bloke canโt even find his way to Clacton gods sake.
He's a very naughty boy. www.leicestermercury.co.uk/news/local-n...
Looks like someone has restored the value of properties in Hampton in Arden. They've gone.
Starmer could have said: Vandalism isn't patriotism; daubing red crosses on Chinese takeaways and writing racist graffiti isn't patriotism; perfomatively sitting in front of a flag or tying one to a mosque isn't patriotism; Patriotism is about making this country safe, happy productive for all.

Headed up by no other than the snake oil salesman Farage the Brexshit mouthpiece.

This is what communities are about. It isn't knuckle dragging morons disrespecting the flag to spread hate, it is people like Crystal Clean Windows. We saw it after the riots last year. The far right are not representative of local communities. H/t to @ottoenglish.bsky.social for the original post.
At the UN Security Council, as PM Yulia Svyrydenko showed the body of a child killed in a Russian strike, Russian representatives stared into their phones. A stark reminder: for Moscow, human life means nothing, cynicism is their official policy.
I remember an over night stop in north west Spain. In the middle of the night the heating system was making all sorts of banging noises. In the morning the better half said "that wasn't the heating system dear"
Nurses have to put up with a lot of shit, practically from the likes these morons. I know it a bit extreme, but anyone treating nurses like this should have the words "do not resuscitate" marked on their wrists.

Some one told me that they had seen flags in Hampton in Arden (West Midlands). I bet that's knocked ยฃ100K plus of the value of some properties. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
"Over the last five years police forces across the UK have received over 170,000 dashcam clips" The problem is the forms have many questions. I'm sure many go unreported because of this. e.g. West Midlands Police total over kill. I'd love to see the fail to complete stats.
Once more some clown has drawn the flag upside down. Thick or what!
