We're witnessing the greatest sustained attack on the human spirit in history. Big Tech seeks to destroy the arts. They're destroying the school system. They want to make us lobotomized people who can't read, write or create. They've turned dystopian fiction into a manual.

Or Mogg who last night on Newsnight was telling Gillian Tett that because she wasn't pro-Trump that meant she was not impartial. Apparently you have to be pro-Trump to be impartial.

When you’ve protected British people’s rights from the authoritarian regime Nigel Farage craves.

Also "meteoric rise". Meteors don't rise they fall.

Cuts to social protection for people living in poverty have created “fertile ground” for far-right movements around the world, according to a United Nations report. https://cnn.it/3JlsNyN

I wonder how they will get around that regeneration scene if Billie Piper decides she doesn't like the contract she's offered in the next series.

He'll say it was rigged.

Where did the picture come from?

BlueSky would have hidden and slurred JK Rowlings truth-telling, fairness-demanding post too.

It must make everyday decisions so difficult. How does he know whether ANY medicine is safe? Or any foodstuff? Or any appliance? Or whether the traffic lights can be trusted? Or whether the sun will rise in the morning?

The purpose, of course, is to cow the rest of the press into only asking soft questions.

None of the last 31 political attacks was by anyone from 'the Left'. Not one. We can count them. The script written for Donald Trump which he read stiltedly straight after Charlie Kirk was shot declared assassinations in the USA were caused by “the radical Left”. He said: “For years, those on the...

Next time someone on the right claims all the political violence in this country is coming from the left, not the right, do please show them this.

You're welcome

The red bit is right wing extremists

How's the Nobel Peace Prize nomination coming along?

Just shutting Twitter down in the UK should be a serious public policy option. It’s a cancer on society. We’ve got to overcome the digital cringe of thinking that social media is untouchable on specious free speech grounds.

This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.

"Use case" where "use" would suffice really irritates me.

Four per cent. Four.

And yet the country is once again being pulled apart by intimidating demonstrations, stirred up by disingenuous and dangerous politicians and commentators.

They are getting exactly what they want.

Well he got fooled by Brexit but on the other hand he's supported the teenage cancer trust for years, for which he deserves credit.

Solar is now 41% cheaper than fossil fuels, new UN report finds: 'Fossil fuels are running out of road' Two new reports from the United Nations pointed to huge milestones in renewable energy sectors.

A green energy future is inevitable, and it fucks the minds of the fossil fuel industry.

Sally J (@sallyja) Ian, you seem to think that being transgender means having innate trans characteristics. That's incorrect. Gender nonconformity is innate because effeminate men and masculine women exist in nature and...

Poor Ian Dunt the Runt (I’m trying to be polite). He is getting absolutely destroyed on Substack. Lovin’ it. 🤣

Innocent subpostmasters went to jail, but now it is clear: the Post Office boss class belong there instead | Marina Hyde You thought it couldn’t get any worse, but the most widespread miscarriage of justice in British legal history just got wider, says Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

To end democracy? I don't want to be ruled by Farage, if it's all the same. We can all see what Trump's doing and how Farage is trying to bring that discourse into British politics. Thanks for your attention to this matter Nigel, but it's a bigly no thanks from me.

It might be just a statistical thing with chess: that the pool of men players is so much larger than the pool of women players makes it much more likely that the best players will be men.

Because if it weren't women would never win prizes. Or almost never, because there are NO women in the current top 100 chess players. Only a very few women, less than a handful, have ever made it into the top 100.

This saddens me. I'm all for the block button in response to threats or abuse but this was neither. It was reasoned expression of a belief protected by law and of a legal definition clarified by the supreme court.

This use of the block (& report) just reinforces both our personal bubbles.
