Bruno was only a little baby when we found him on the road just over a month ago. You won’t believe what he looks like today and the good news he’s getting. This will put a huge smile on your face! It did for me! ❤️

OK, there is something very, very weird going on in the press right now. It certainly appears, from the outside, as if certain people are being very much protected in a way that was not afforded to certain other people! Let's start with the facts around Lola Salem... 🧵1/

You can see the genocide from space. Yet still it is widely denied.

Google is updating its satellite images of Gaza. The comprehensiveness of effort required to reduce an urban landscape to this is beyond imagining. Literal carpet bombing.

🧵 As front-page headlines go, this has to be one of the most misleading I've seen in a long time It's an out-and-out lie But notice the trick they use to get away with it...👀 *They're* not lying - they're just quoting someone else who is👍🏻 In this case, the leader of the opposition🙄 1/33

Thomson Reuters, which owns news agency Reuters, has signed a $125M deal giving ICE access to its databases of personal data. USA Today has partnered with Palantir to gain "actionable intelligence" on its audiences. The media should be opponents of Trump's police state — not collaborators.

Whilst Andy Burnham has found the time to opine on such vital issues as 'vertical drinking', and whether a bread roll should be called a ‘barm’, he has not found the time to comment on some of the worst racist violence on Britain's streets in the postwar period www.adambienkov.co.uk/p/illegitima...

#TheYearInReform Look, it's very simple. Nothing to see here. Move along. Reform UK is a party - sorry - a company built around British Patriotism and being frank with the public, and it is led by straight-talking anti-elite Nigel Farage.

Written a bit about the massive influx of abuse, threats and targeted harassment I've received due to The National reporting accurately on the far-right's activities and aims. TLDR: The National won't be silenced. www.thenational.scot/politics/264...

Yes, the inclusion of Gaelic and Scots in their proposal exposes their incompetence. But the real issue here is that racists are trying to criminalise any minority languages in election campaigning. Oh, that and the secret bungs and the fraudster funding, let's not stop talking about that.

The National@scotnational.bsky.social

Proposals by Reform UK to criminalise election materials produced in Gaelic and Scots have been blasted by speakers, with the party being accused of 'incompetence and ignorance' over Scotland’s official languages

At the recent Alliance for Responsible Citizenship conference, ex deputy first minister Kate Forbes was flanked by far-right figures who were “using their Christian faith to justify stripping away civil liberties, personal freedoms, and democratic structures,” says Humanist Soc chair Jennifer Buchan

Bethan's Rock is a small grey stone on display at Poole Museum in Poole, England. It was donated to the museum in 2019 by a five-year-old girl named Bethan, and it has since attracted significant attention on social media and become the museum's most famous object. - Wikipedia

"Police had responded to a report alleging someone attempted to steal a box of diapers from Walmart" 😲 Also, police in the US are estimated to kill 10,000 dogs a year while attending incidents & are twice as likely to do so in black/Hispanic areas. bsky.app/profile/wera... US police are dangerous!

If rumours are to be believed I'll be living with a seventh different Prime Minister shortly. If it carries on like this I'm going to stop making the effort to learn their names.

Jesus Christ, what a shock at the end of this. What a dreadful end Jameson faced. I dinnae usually comment on US gun laws and practices, basically because the stupidity of them is beyond my ken that it's an accepted way of living. But ffs, this lethal overreaction was utterly beyond the pale.

Sorry to re-up this, but the media silence on the massive, country-changing shift towards arbitrary justice and authoritarianism is almost the most astonishing aspect of the case. The new dispensation is being normalised even as it's happening. Please spread it far and wide. We need to know. Thanks

George Monbiot@georgemonbiot.bsky.social

Both the government and the Court of Appeal now treat protesters as terrorists and terrorists as protesters. It's hard to accept that a "Labour" government is imposing rightwing authoritarianism on the UK, but please read this column to see what's happening.+🧵 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

None of these tax dodging, foreign-based crypto billionaires and moneymen give a single shit about our country or democracy. They’re buying Farage power so he’ll remove our rights and protections to maximise their profits. It really is that simple and that corrupt. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Where’s Farage? He’s not been seen in Parliament for weeks, doesn’t hold constituency surgeries, cancels big TV interviews last minute & hasn’t been campaigning in Makerfield. Oh look, there he is!! Popping up to spread more racism & use the tragic death of a young man to draw attention to himself.
