How is Reform’s charmless candidate still a contender in Gorton and Denton? Ask Labour | George Monbiot This byelection should have been a stroll for Keir Starmer’s party. Instead, all hope of defeating Matt Goodwin now seems to lie with the Greens, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

No sense of irony

I really appreciate this TikToker with Tourette syndrome, Shay, for taking the time to educate so many of us (including me) about her disability and coprolalia in light of what happened at the BAFTAs with John Davidson when Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo were on stage.

I learned a lot.

He's ashamed of the Supreme Court, says the man who had shamed America.

How does the USA intend protecting its troops or civilian population against future biological warfare?

It’s nothing short of TV gold: mix horror with wild comedy and call it Starmer’s last stand | Marina Hyde The only reason we might not get our seventh prime minister in 10 years is that no one can find one, says Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

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

Will ICE be proving 'security' at the US mid-term elections?

I won't vote strategically every again. Labour under Starmer has betrayed us. Vote with your heart and conscience.

We are opening an investigation into Grok because we believe that X may have breached the DSA.

We have seen antisemitic content, non-consensual deepfakes of women, and child sexual abuse material.

Downing Street says Trump 'wrong' to claim Nato troops avoided Afghanistan front line Veterans and bereaved families call the comments insulting, as the prime minister's spokesperson says

'Wrong' seems to be doing a lot of heavy lifting for no 10.

Biological sex is not a static reality. Scholars have spent decades pointing out how assuming a sex binary is not only wrong but also unethical as it erases the lives of those who are embodied differently. Courts should not give effect to “common sense” when such sense is unethical and unscientific.

My prediction for the next orange tantrum: Threaten to break up NATO (which, in my opinion, would be a good thing)

There is a difference between illegal and immoral.

Trump will never support NATO in a time of need. Time to change five eyes to four eyes, and NATO to WETO (Western Europe Treaty Organisation.

For non-German speakers:

“Dear media, I can’t stand the headline "No agreement between the US and Denmark” any longer. If an armed man storms a bank, you don't run the headline: "Robber and cashier can't reach an agreement on money transfer." Stop framing imperial aggression as normal diplomacy.”

4 frame comic. A street journalist asks an elderly woman : ma'am! What do you think of the radical left fear mongering that we could someday see fascism in the US? She replies: dear boy, the US has been a blueprint for fascism all along. Hitler specifically cited Jim Crow, US anti-miscegenation and white only immigration laws as inspiration for his eugenics policies. Germany sent people to study what was being done in the US to export it over there. In the 30s, tens of thousands of Americans attended massive rallies by fascist groups such as the friends of new Germany or the German American bund. Then in the 40s, two dozen Congress people were charged with sedition for planning a fascist overthrow of the government. And since WWII, the amount of fascist groups and militias has grown exponentially. Not only can fascism come to the US,it has always been an inherent part of American society.
