So proud of our flagship Kent Council, who cut wasteful spending by painting yellow lines outside a school that has been closed for nine years.

YouTube video by Femi - F Politics! Reform UK Danny Kruger: Migrants are a threat to women & girls

Danny Kruger claims migrant men represent a disproportionate threat to women.

FACT-CHECK:
Reform MPs are a bigger "Per Capita" threat to women and girls than ANY minority group.

Every time I hear a politician say that an issue is “dividing” this country they always then come down on the side of the right wing view of it. Just once I’d love to hear someone say “this issue is divisive, which is why I’m making the argument that kindness and compassion is important”

Not the first to make this point. But there is a tyrant in charge of another country who is accused of being heavily linked to a paedophile sex ring - and supposed ‘patriots’ in this country are passionately willing him to take down our national broadcaster. Madness.

Emails highlight Jeffrey Epstein and Steve Bannon relationship New documents show the pair discussing travel arrangements and UK politics in messages from 2018.

Farage, Boris Johnson & Rees-Mogg apparently plotting assaults on UK democracy with Bannon, who was reporting back to Epstein. Nothing to see here, newspaper folk…

People on the Left often complain about the BBC being too right wing, while people on the Right accuse it of left wing bias. Now, to me that says it must be fairly balanced.

And YES - I have a show on BBC Sounds. But this isn't about me, and I genuinely think it would be a tragedy to lose the BBC.

Opposing views should be openly challenged with logic and reason, not silenced with the threat of bullets - that way lies a very grim future.

Actually, it happened because the far-right religious nutter, climate sceptic and Islamophobic billionaire, Paul Marshall, looked at Fox News in the US and thought “Why can’t we have a propaganda channel that pumps out non-stop bullshit too?”

How did those presenters keep a straight face

The BBC have always been biased against me. As I explained in detail during my 38 appearances on BBC Question Time.

McDonald’s in Dalton Rd, Barrow: 1* food hygiene rating Dalton Rd, Barrow McDonalds rated as ‘major improvement necessary’ in 1* from a health inspector

Yikes! 🤮

The McDonald’s at 148-150 Dalton Road, Barrow-in Furness, has been given a one-star food hygiene rating…

…and has been told that ‘major improvement is necessary’ to appease health inspectors.

Yorkshire Water: it’s time to end the rip-off Handing the company back to local people would return both control and value to those who need it most

"Yorkshire Water was privatised in 1989 under the Water Act, launched debt-free and promoted as the start of a new, efficient era.

What followed was anything but. Today, the company carries almost £7bn in debt. Our rivers are polluted, our bills keep rising, and we’re told to pay still more..."

China’s CO2 emissions have been flat or falling for past 18 months, analysis finds World’s biggest polluter on track to hit peak emissions target early but miss goal for cutting carbon intensity

This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"

China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

Trump's White House & fawning hacks here don't really care about the 0.001% that the BBC gets wrong. They care about all the stuff it gets right.

I Want You to Understand Chicago Politics Chicago 2025-11-08 I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time. Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again. An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next. Understand what it is to pray in Chicago. On September 19th, Reverend David Black, lead pastor at First Presbyterian Church of Chicago, was praying outside the ICE detention center in Broadview when a DHS agent shot him in the head with pepper balls. Pepper balls are never supposed to be fired at the head because they can seriously injure, or even kill. “We could hear them laughing as they were shooting us from the roof,” Black recalled. He is not the only member of the clergy ICE has assaulted. Methodist pastor Hannah Kardon was violently arrested on October 17th, and Baptist pastor Michael Woolf was shot with pepper balls on November 1st. Understand what it is to sleep in Chicago. On the night of September 30th, federal agents rappelled from a Black Hawk helicopter to execute a raid on an apartment building on the South Sho…

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.
