This is a lie.

There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.

But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

🇪🇺🛡️ European Commissioner for Defense Andrius Kubilius:

German intelligence claims to have evidence that the Kremlin is discussing an attack on NATO. And if they are discussing it, are they planning an attack? We don't know. Such signals must be taken seriously. They may indeed be prepared for war.

**taps mic**

"So, where do you sit?"

"The Rod Hull Courts of Justice."

Dear Gods of all that is stupid...

IT'S REAL.

Misinformation and myth: the UK’s phoney war over human r... The debate over the future of the European Convention on Human Rights will shape conference season and beyond

As Kemi Badenoch confirms plans to pull out of the ECHR a reminder that much of this debate is driven by myths and misinformation observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

We flounced out of the EU on the say-so of politicians who lied to us. And what a total shitshow that’s turned out to be. The polar opposite of what they promised. Now the call to flounce out of the ECHR. By the same people. Telling the same lies. Has the country been kicked in the head by a horse?

Reform UK’s Nigel Farage with the Russian Ambassador (that he denied meeting), and with Oleg Voloshyn's wife Nadia Borodi, Voloshyn bribed Nathan Gill.

Farage is still silent.

It’s deafening.

Young people’s favourite politicians? Farage, Burnham and Trump New polling from Merlin Strategies shows that Britain’s youth are desperate for radical change

That's the power of pod?

"As regards media figures, more teens know of @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social (37 per cent) and @rory-stewart.bsky.social (26 per cent) than they do @owenjones.bsky.social (24 per cent)."

These are sad times for Britain when the dominant political and media narratives are normalising the notion that immigrants are second class citizens. It’s not only cruel and demeaning but also stupid and self-destructive & those promoting it do not wish the country well.

Moldova's pro-EU party wins vote mired in claims of Russian interference The election was seen as critical for Moldova's EU path, and President Maia Sandu warned the country's future was in danger.

Some really welcome news from Moldova. The lesson, once again: When broadly moderate, liberal voters grasp the magnitude of the danger and unite, they win - and win big. ~AA

How much trouble is Labour in - and is the PM the right man for the job? Ahead of Labour's annual conference, Laura Kuenssberg asks if the PM is the right man for the job.

No, no, no. It is not the BBC’s job to ask these questions www.bbc.com/news/article...

you probably need to be of a certain vintage to understand the absolute hilarity of ken starr being in the epstein files

We don't live in a world anymore where you can do one piece for the Telegraph and an interview with the Guardian + appeal to two different audiences with different messages. Anyone interested can see what you're doing.

This is Soooooooo GOOD!

Paracetamol use during pregnancy not linked to autism, our study of 2.5 million children shows Our research provides strong evidence against the concerning claims made recently by US president Donald Trump.

From the original Swedish researchers.

OBAMA: It's fair to say that 80% of the world's problems involve old men hanging on who are afraid of death and insignificance, and they won't let go. They build pyramids, and they put their names on everything. They get very anxious about it.

Republicans can’t win on their policies, so they are trying to dodge accountability by rewriting the rules. These lawmakers are going out of their way to silence the will of the people and deliberately undermine our democracy.

As Jackson Lamb returns to our screens for a new outing this week, Blaise Metreweli is settling into her new office as C, the head of MI6. Of the two, it’s a fair bet that Metreweli faces the more difficult task.
