FYI‼️ Jason Arday has been cleared of plagiarism for a fourth time. Just incase you haven’t heard it from the same media outlets who hounded him to his death.

Went to a weight loss meeting. A motivational speaker called Carol told us to listen to our bodies. I do Carol and that's why I'm here, mine keeps telling me cake and crisps.

Can we please make him pay for lying? It's the only way this nonsense stops.

This morning on BBC Breakfast, Nigel Farage said he had received “zero help from the state” with his security. Yet reports say he had previously received publicly funded protection and was offered a taxpayer-funded package including a bodyguard, a secure car and a trained driver.

I don’t think we should get used to a man this wealthy, this full of hate and this willing to demonize a small minority having so much power in our economy and in our politics. To defend democracy, we must defeat the oligarchs.

I thought it was a mistake to give him as permanent contract. Nothing about him suggested an ability to manage against serious opposition in the Premier League, leat alone the Champoins League. Didn't learn from OGS and let sentimentality decide. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

Having said that, Man U are a mess but trying to work with a certain philosophy consistently would help. For their faults, that's what Liverpool and City have tried to do (with limited success with Slot). It's like Chelsea but with less to show for transfers. Spurs too.

Reform MP Andrew Rosindell, ex Tory who dodged rape etc charges is soft on tax havens - letting millionaires pay less tax than poor people with 3 lousy jobs By coincidence, he's just back from 'fact-finding tours' AKA luxury holidays in Isles of Man, Jersey & Caymans worth £thousands via Private Eye

Absolutely disgusting, but what can we expect from an adjudicated rapist and a congenital liar?

Q: Amy Acton's stepfather was indicted for rape. Now that you know all that, sir, do you change your mind about the ad? Trump: No. I don't care

Remember when Reform MP Andrew Rosindell went on GB News to accuse Labour of being a “government of self-service” and called Keir Starmer accepting gifts from donors “utterly shameful”? We do. 🧾 Well, it turns out Mr Rosindell has been enjoying some rather substantial hospitality himself. 🤔

Care work is highly skilled work and only paid so poorly because of the failure of successive governments to value it properly

The comments made by Nigel Farage about Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) are complete bull****! The £200bn figure he uses has no basis in reality and is unsupported by any reliable data - and he knows it. If UK news shows won’t call this boll**** out let’s do it ourselves youtu.be/RNno57MA4As?...

EXCLUSIVE: Pete Hegseth wanted Gen. Dwight Eisenhower’s globe for his office. His staff broke it. The Pentagon denied us access to take photos, but we obtained some anyway. A story in global affairs: wapo.st/3WF2YQo

Sixty years, tomorrow. They gave the man in charge a knighthood. They made the local community pay for the remembrance garden. No-one held to account. I always think of the dinner lady, Nansi, who shielded five kids with her body and died in the process but they all lived. #Aberfan

Really important, on Trafalgar Day, to observe that there are both women and black people included in this image. It's not anachronistic or "woke" to tell their stories, and ignoring them is doing a disservice not only to those people but also to their contemporaries who made sure they were seen.

Wasn’t just harbour - they were often wives or partners, and would be on ships “informally”. There are women in “The Death of Nelson”:

It's an economic catastrophe, possibly on par with Brexit in terms of damage done.

In addition to her confusion about France, UK net migration is already plunging. She surely knows this. RW populist lying about migration is so fucking tiresome.

With Trump's removal of Starlink, Russians are now hunting cars full of people in Kyiv, using jet drones for which Ukraine's interceptors no longer function to stop. Three people murdered an hour ago in southern Kyiv, with six others injured, three of which are children.

We were coldly, cynically, systematically lied to Tories, particularly Boris Johnson and Matt Hancock, will forever have the blood of the elderly on their hands. A reminder that Hancock got a lucrative TV gig. And Johnson still rakes cash in for his newspaper column. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cm...

What the Tories did to our nation is probably irreversible. They broke everything, tore down, everything, dismantled our public services and our communities. Never forgive, never forget.

People need to understand that the only reason Trump backed down on SpaceX and Starshield so quickly is that he got push back right away, politically and from Ukraine. He is a bully and a coward. Stop criticising Zelensky for standing up to him.

wizardpug.bsky.social reposted

You may be happy with the populist right attacking immigrants now, but their agenda is tax cuts and rolling back the welfare state. That means the crosshairs are going to land soon on the “undeserving poor” and your skin colour won’t save you or the ones you love.

Here’s Kash Patel

Peter Jukes@peterjukes.bsky.social

So Trump not only disarmed Ukraine by removing the Starlink/Starshield capability with defensive drones (the system only operates in Ukraine), he blinded it too with withholding advanced warnings of Russian missile attacks. How evil, cowardly and craven. Is Kash Patel still in Moscow

Years ago, Farage commented that there was no room for racists in UKIP. I took it to mean they'd have to join a waiting list. Reform are Continuation UKIP.

Looks like another Reform member caught on camera saying racist things is blaming Racism Pills again. "Councillor Miller told us he was heavily medicated at the time due to a chronic pain condition, and he has now resigned from Reform UK." www.itv.com/news/2026-10...
