Did an exam this morning for the first time in decades. Was horrible. Don’t recommend. Now the anxiety of waiting for results.

Douglas Carswell has skirted the line and now he's crossed it. This is disgusting racism from a former MP who now demonstrates who and what he is.

Finally saw Superman. That bit when he catches Lois and THEN the helicopter! Woooo boy!
This is a really good point. Vote for Lineker as a signal to the right wing press. Also, almost as important, please ensure Mrs Brown's Boys doesn't win anything.
Keir Starmer’s new director of communications isn’t just the founder of Portland Communications – which represented Qatar, Russia and Kazakhstan – he’s also come straight from the board of the anti-trans charity Sex Matters. The government is heading in a dark direction.

From the observer today, great cartoon from Rob Murray.
They did warn Johnson (and the Queen) not to appoint Evgeny to the House of Lords. Johnson broke all precedent and overruled them
Sounds legit to me. Some really crisp analysis in these two short paragraphs.

Still staggered that Byline has no less than six contributors named on the Kremlin’s latest stop list - way more than any other UK media organisation. But beginning to wonder if this is as much to do with our investigation of the Levedevs (who still control a raft of UK media)

There’s a persistent myth that new solar farms don’t really help tackle climate change because panels are “made with coal” and “never pay back” their carbon debt. This is simply false. - UN: solar ~8x cleaner than gas, ~19x than coal per kWh - panels repay CO2 in 4 months; save 57x over life

Question: Why did US put big tariffs on India despite major national interest in cultivating a strategic counterweight to China and trying to isolate Russia? Answer: Because the US president lied that he fixed India-Pakistan and India wouldn’t go along with the lie. (Seriously, that’s the answer)
‘Trying’ is an absolute gem. Yes, it has a very romanticized version of London but all the performances are wonderful.

Weekend at Bernie’s: The West Wing
The Sun in 2025 vs The Sun in 2016. Another Brexit lie busted. Of course the Sun’s new article makes no apology, or even mention, of their 2016 front page splash - which was ruled “misleading” by the press watchdog at the time - but what did The Sun care, when the lie served its purpose anyway.
Spectacular article, all the major insights captured, but an early one here into how sincerely these men care about protecting our women and girls.
I tutted at a man on the train? It was a cross country train so…
For example, look how much traction the Dems got in the US when they started calling Vance and the other guy weird. It ultimately didn’t work but, it managed to put a negative focus on him in the press. For a while.
It is exhausting how those of us on the left are constantly told to be careful and mindful and sensitive with the language and rhetoric we use, while the right just say whatever shit they want. Being on the right is playing politics on easy mode.
Wait… I’m *not* special???
The Human Rights Convention protocols add additional protections. Which of these protections once removed by Farage would cause you the most harm? Reintroduction of the death penalty for sure. Debtors prisons? Spousal inequality? Expulsion as a national? The right to free elections? Fascism alert.
Well played.

🧵Spotted on Market Day in Aotearoa New Zealand: A small human is wearing hot pink sunglasses that allow her to be naughty when she puts them on and NO ONE CAN SEE! But what is this?! Dad has a pair of naughty SPOTTING sunglasses?! Oh no! Hmm. Maybe they're PRINCESS sunglasses instead. (1)
Sand batteries are literally just silos of sand that retain heat exceptionally well -- so well that they can be tied to heat exchange systems to serve as proxy *electrical* batteries. Finland's new model can store enough power (100 MWh) to heat an entire town for a week. newatlas.com/energy/large...
Zuck’s pretty much come full circle. Pathetic, seedy little boy.

Labour have failed to connect Farage with economic disaster in the minds of ordinary people. That must change ✏️ @sanglesey.bsky.social

Same. Dad was away a lot, so used to stay up with Mum watching Hammer Horrors. And Marx Brothers around Christmas.
"There have been no counter narratives from Labour. There have been no attempts to fact check some of this stuff." Rylan's TV rant about migrant hotels was packed full of right-wing misinformation – and our government have done nothing to stop its spread
DAN!
Polling from @Moreincommon_ on Lucy Connolly More than half think her sentence was too lenient or about right. Only a third that it was too harsh. Only 18% think politicians should associate themselves her, while 51% think they should actively distance themselves from her.
I mean, if you will insist on making films where nearly every shot is an effects shot then yeah it'll get expensive. This is like buying a mansion and complaining how much it costs to heat and clean.
The fact that Reform were trying to run a person who had been dead for six months as their Croydon Mayoral candidate is proof if it were needed that they are not a serious party. It demonstrates abject incompetence and no vetting as well as utter contempt for the electorate.

This is just next level insanity. In January this year, Reform picked Sharon Carby, aged 70, from Bradford, to run as their Croydon Mayoral candidate. There was just one rather significant problem. She had sadly died in July 2024. insidecroydon.com/2025/08/27/f...
