If the UK and France can't or won't hold the line against a Victor Orban Secretary-General bid, they should give up their Permanent Seats on the Security Council. No shame in no longer being globally relevant, but if it really has gotten that bad it would be humiliating to keep pretending.

Lula: "We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate. A crime in the digital world must be treated the same as a crime in the real world. We cannot have monstrous companies earning millions... not paying taxes... wanting to steer elections."

An honest Ali G show would be about how the rich white kid with the “black” accent suddenly becomes posh and lawyered up when the police find the coke at the house party

I think one thing is that Ali G's youthful audience 25 years ago didn't actually get the joke - they weren't laughing at the parody of a middle class white guy pretending to be black (a niche type at the time), they were laughing at the sexist jokes, drug references and befuddled ageing interviewees

The toxic truth about your period products. How do you know if your sanitary products are safe? Sadly, in the UK you don't. There are more regulations about candles than tampons, pads or reusable products. 🧵1/3

There’s 3,428 billionaires out of a world population of ~8,300,000,000 people. Why are we letting 0.000041% dictate the entire world we all live in? I say we break off into groups of 2.4M, assign a billionaire to each group, and get this ship back on course.

If it's true that it was Musk himself that's responsible for turning off Ukraine's Starshield capabilities with no warning, he is a murderer. At that moment and throughout the massive Russian attack that then began, Ukraine lost the use of interceptor..

Elon cut off Starlink to Ukraine because they blew up his Russian bots and so now his posts don’t get enough likes? Do I have that right?

The estimated lifespan of the outer solar system has been downgraded from 100 billion years to just a few billion years, according to a study that probed “terminal instability” during the Sun’s death.

Crazy that we hear about Train Drivers who get £60,000 a year for driving a train. But we never hear about the boss of Tesco who gets £30,000 a day and doesn't even pay tax in the UK. Or the £250m a day that the likes of Amazon, Vodafone, BP and Shell don't pay in tax.

Palantir should not be operating in the UK, and they should certainly not be allowed to hire Lord Tom Watson who has privileged access to sensitive information. It shouldn't even be a question, Tom Watson should be removed from the Lords today.

Not only did I meet Robert Kraft, I worked for him. His kid Jonathan asked me to “remove the black music” from my gameday playlist in ‘94 & I refused so they fired me. I was the cheerleader director at the time.  I sued them for wrongful termination and won. So yes, I know that motherfucker.

Did you ever meet Bob Kraft?

13 workers left Palantir and issued this statement. "Palantir is increasingly complicit, normalizing authoritarianism under the guise of a 'revolution' led by oligarchs. We must resist this trend."

The doctor who claimed that vaccines cause autism lost his medical license for faking for the study. But his lies and the damage he did to public health persist long after his paper was pulled. This is why science communication is so difficult; all it takes is one grifter.

It'll be pretty embarrassing if the dinosaurs went out with more dignity than us. They can't say they knew about the meteor for decades, knew exactly what to do about it, had all the technology and resources to stop it but didn't so five of them could own everything

Jeff Bezos and Facebook's Eduardo Saverin are planning to buy a large stake in Liverpool FC. This is terrible and should be blocked. Football clubs should be owned by the countries they are in so the money from their supporters goes back to THEIR communities.

In a report endorsed by the former head of MI6, the Henry Jackson Society said a staggering 50% of the Russians in London - 75,000 - were informants for Putin. Russia has many operatives across Europe.

A Paris court today rejected Russian television star Xenia Fedorova's appeal against a ruling that she must leave the country, a week after French authorities accused her of acting as "a conduit for disinformation campaigns" orchestrated by Moscow.
