JB is the only BBC journalist I trust.

Quite the move isn’t it, migrating to a war zone to avoid paying VAT on school fees and then letting a severely disabled teacher in a wheelchair cross a city under fire over the weekend to pay him what to her will be loose change. Who makes these people?

Bad timing on the day that the International Table Tennis Federation was about to award Trump the ‘Ping Pong Ball of Peace’.

"The Peace President."

The choice is stark. Reform are the party of foreign wars and high bills.

The Greens want de-escalation and energy security through renewables. Solar and wind prices don't fluctuate when rogue US presidents launch illegal bombing campaigns.

Fuck me…the return of Jesus is it?

‘Mum. Look here!
It’s another instalment from Isabel Oakeshott.
Today she’s telling us how brave her au pair was in cooking the family’s Native lobster, roasted heritage carrots and buttermilk purée whilst being bombarded by enemy missiles…’

In this crazy world, the only constant is fast becoming that the BBC US corr Sarah Smith's analysis of Trump is going to be awful

MPs’ basic salary to rise to £110,000 by end of parliament, watchdog says Ipsa cites rising abuse and constituency workloads as reasons for above-inflation increase of 5% from April

MPs’ basic salary to rise to £110,000 by end of parliament, watchdog says.

This should be accompanied by a total ban on second jobs, which in most cases is a corporate bribe. Must end all conflict of interests.

Being a MP is a full time job. MPs must act exclusively as MPs.

Greens overtake Labour in sensational poll The Greens have polled higher than Labour in the latest poll by YouGov, which puts them only two points off Reform UK and five ahead of the governing party.

"Of those who voted Labour [in 2024], just 37% would vote Labour again".
Read that again to absorb the full, astonishing weight of what it means.
Starmer, Reeves and co have burnt their house down.

I’ve loved all of my trips to the USA (in sensible states) and I am genuinely fond of Americans but what other country has this amount of completely deranged, ignorant, shamelessly racist, far-right, crazy clowns in positions of genuine power and influence?

Is there something in the water there?

Turns out lowering bills, protecting the NHS and rebuilding our public services is really popular.

This is just the beginning - people are seeing through the attacks and demanding something better.

And we're making hope normal again - together.

Important that the Labour Government doubles down on it’s policies to attract racist voters then…

Your #FoxOfTheDay today shared by Steve Halward , thank you Steve !

We need more refusal. Every news article needs to preface that the US and Israel have acted illegally. This fact is already being dropped from news reporting. Starmer should have said and done this, instead he’s capitulated because he’s a bootlicker.

Hmm…quick sense check this morning and it’s ‘let’s go with this’.

Yep

The right despise and are terrified of everything that doesn’t look like them. As a consequence they will also forgive literally any crime committed by those who do look/sound like them.

Totally agree on Frimpong to RW, do that now.

Yeah, that’s fair. I know we only saw about 30 mins of Leoni but you can tell when a player looks good.

I suppose the gamble on not replacing Diaz looks more iffy now because none of us expected Mo’s form to absolutely fall off a cliff.

Yeah, agreed. What we certainly do need this summer (and I think this is where it’s a bit dicey if Slot doesn’t have as much influence as perhaps he should) is a more varied transfer policy to ensure that the squad is a bit more rounded in every position.

We’ll be fine!

I think that the hysterical ‘Slot-out’ stuff is pathetic but he isn’t above criticism, neither was JK.

Slot absolutely deserves more respect and I am sure that he’ll get the chance to get us firing again.

In terms of the low-block stuff, we’ve struggled for years against this, Klopp’s sides too.

Also…fuck off, bot.

Grow up! She’s a far right piece of shit, peddling far right shit.

I couldn’t care less if she was a man or a woman…she’s a fucking weirdo.

That’s a good point.

Perched upright on a weathered stump, a small brown Wren tilts its head back mid-call against a soft golden backdrop, alert and vocal.

Many MPs claim to care about nature.

Tomorrow afternoon will be the test.

On Tuesday 3rd March there will be a debate in Parliament on red lines for nature.

We’ll be watching to see who shows up. Empty seats will say a lot.

Tell us who you expect to see there tomorrow. 👇

So the Spanish PM couldn’t give a shiny shite about Spaniards in the Middle East or is he just not a vacuous shell?

"They don't even have jobs and they've got shit hair and they're all just poo bum willies!"
