I'm proud that the UK has been Ukraine's staunchest ally from the start. We mustn't falter in the face of Trump's bullying now.
Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

Here's our News Agents video essay which explains the truth, and spells out why Trump clings so close to Putin and lives in his warped reality.

Dear BlueSkyers. Sadly I'm getting many reports of scammers pretending to be me here, incl messaging people with 'investments' . Pls share/help me spread word that, as you know, THIS IS MY ONLY BLUE SKY account (proved as my handle is an official MoneySavingExpert one). All others are scams

07.01.2025 18:36 β π 82 π 35 π¬ 4 π 3The government is keen to amp up protection measures β¦ like ending the automatic right for parents to homeschool kids if their child is subject to a protection investigation β¦ creating national insurance-style numbers for kids so they donβt fall through the cracks between systems β¦ and ensuring councils hold a register of children who arenβt in school. Theyβre hyping the cost-saving ones, too: A cap on the number of branded clothes schools mandate as part of their uniforms to cut costs is included (saving more than Β£50 a child, ministers say), as is a legal entitlement for kids in all primaries to attend free breakfast clubs (saving Β£450 a head). But thatβs not all of it: What the governmentβs making far less noise about is how the bill would also roll back many of the freedoms given to academy schools by Michael Gove and the Conservatives β making them follow national pay conditions and teach a revised national curriculum, while restoring council powers to open new schools
Major reforms to schooling in England get their second reading (first proper debate) in Parliament today
Politico: The Govt argues the Childrenβs Wellbeing and Schools Bill "will protect kids vanishing from the education system"
Free breakfast clubs on their way, and overhauling Academies
A touch of revision: Farage seemed to change his tune somewhat on Tommy Robinson last night, having been ticked off by Musk for not celebrating the far-right bruiser as some sort of political prisoner. βI do question why heβs in prison and being kept in solitary confinement,β Farage said on his GB News show last night, having previously pointed out (quite accurately) that Robinson is in jail for contempt of court. The real grading system: The Reform leader reckons he could patch things up with the worldβs richest man. Farage acknowledged that Musk had called for him to be replaced but said he has since βretweeted me twice, and who knows, maybe weβll make up.β
Here comes the cringe-inducing sycophancy from Farage re. Musk, who called for the Reform leader to go. Via Politico:
