Thanks for including me.

For any Terry Pratchett fans out there.

It's so clever and heartfelt.

I hope you're able to manage them in a way that works for you and they don't become too disabling. I feel like my day to day level of anger and distress is manageable til one more thing happens, then I have to have a firm word with myself.

One of my favourite sides of politics/media.

Farage opposes better workers rights, Braverman wants to dismantle workplace equality, Reform want a lower minimum wage, and your guy writes this? Farage has 9 jobs, never bothers with constituents, is rich enough to argue about whether he banks at Coutts, and he represents the working class? 🤡

Meh it's nothing, It'll be gone in a couple of days. We all know how phenomenally fast he heals - just look at that ear - not a mark on it, absolutely perfect.

Montie being a plonker with a purpose.

🚨 It looks like the UK government is gearing up to upend copyright law in favour of AI companies, legalising the theft of their work.

This is despite creatives' huge protests, and despite previous proposals being roundly rejected by the public.

Please spread the word.

Cheniere Energy Received $370 Million IRS Windfall for Using LNG as ‘Alternative’ Fuel - Inside Climate News The country’s largest exporter of liquefied natural gas benefited from what critics say is a questionable IRS interpretation of tax credits.

The IRS gave the largest U.S. LNG producer and exporter a $370 million refund for ‘alternative fuel’ tax credits that critics say it never should have received.

Wildlife suffers horribly, not only from large oil spills but also from regular, smaller spills of oil & chemicals from drilling operations in UK waters. You can read more about the harms fossil fuel extraction causes wildlife in @oceanauk.bsky.social's report 👇

“We all know it’s fracking, so treat it as such. It’s banned; therefore, it should not be approved" says Councillor Steve Mason.

Fossil fuel firms claim a 'proppant squeeze' is different from fracking & therefore not banned in the UK.

What a loss.

Piece of advice for those caught up in the middle east countries that are being attacked by Iran:

Your basic holiday insurance more than likely is now void due to war related disruption.

Advise that you check with your insurer immediately and get additional cover now.

Reform win a seat: The true Volk have spoken and we all must listen.

Greens win a seat: Early reports that Muslims may have ‘voted’ (an ancient Islamic practice designed to steal elections). How severely should the franchise be limited in response?

Play in the War Room.

OK, the Gorton and Denton by-election, I have some thoughts!

Let's take a look at some of the FACTS and burst a few of the more ridiculous takes doing the rounds

But first up, can we acknowledge just what bad losers Reform are?!🤣

Right, let's get started...

And let's be clear what's being suggested...

That Muslim wives and daughters are going into the polling booth wanting to vote REFORM but their dominant controlling Islamic husbands demanded they voted for the unmarried, white woman plumber, in a party led by a gay Jewish man.

Screenshot from GB News Twitter account. 'The most toxic by-election in British history: a masterclass in how diversity and multiculturalism have failed.' @PatrickChristys gives a breakdown of the controversial campaigns in the Gorton and Denton by-election, accusing the Greens of 'shamelessly pandering' to Muslims. A picture of Patrick Christys in a GB News studio.

GB News ran a piece about the Greens "shamelessly pandering to Muslims"

Imagine any other broadcasting channel running a piece suggesting "shamelessly pandering to Jews"

That person would be kicked off the air quite rightly, within hours, but say it about Muslims and that's okay...

Apparently🤷‍♀️

Look after yourself.

The Tangerine Grope machine turns into Nostradamus when it comes to under-fire Presidents and their plans for Iran...

You're so right Paula. Also that little breath of fresh air gives us strength to pick up the flaming torches and keep going.

Such a great song.

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

And Russia was a shadowy figure behind the architects of brexit and is very interested in destroying the EU.
