I hope he has dropped it because it looks like a mates-money-maker with the name of Blair’s son written all over it. As an older pensioner I don’t want a digital bit of crap based on my desire to work - survival will do! I’ve done more than my hours already.

Ed Miliband turns on Elon Musk. “He incites violence on our steeets. He calls for the overthrow of our government. He disseminates disinformation. He thinks he can tell us how to run Britain. We have a message for Elon Musk: ‘Get the hell out of our politics and our country!’”

a bit too late for Americans to be panicking about trump - they voted him in when everyone was warning about him - but a good synopsis of what the shutdown in USA is about. 👇

‼️ EU preparing €130bn loan for Ukraine from frozen Russian assets

The problem with Flat Earthers is we can't rid ourselves of them by pushing them off the edge of the world. 🤔

During WW1 there was a rumour that aspirin caused the Spanish Flu. As I was writing about that last year I often shook my head in disbelief at the stupidity of our near ancestors. Seems a lot of people are still dumb enough to believe nonsense.

Sgt Peppers album cover consisting of things that only made it because of immigration in to the UK, either immigrants themselves, the children of or as a result of someone else coming here.

Farage wanting to kick people out of the country because they migrated here made me angry and made me think about which best of British people and things wouldn't have happened were it not for the brilliance of immigration to the UK.

National embarrassment Donald "Bigly" Trump

UK is ‘worst country in Europe’ for drug prices, says Mounjaro maker Eli Lilly CEO says Britain’s strict regime means it could miss out on new drugs being rolled out unless it pays more

Corporations holding Govts to ransom.

CEO of Eli Lilly, $114m pay packet last year, says the UK is “probably the worst country in Europe” for drug prices.

Big Pharma cartel wants the NHS to pay more for drugs, make bigger profits.

Govt must manufacture generic drugs, end profiteering.

It’s almost as bad as “putting the nation’s health at risk” - no doubt your keyboard had a #YodaMoment

Political cartoon showing Donald Trump sitting with mouth open, saying “I’M ALLOWED TO GIVE HER A PARDON.” Above him, in a thought bubble, is Ghislaine Maxwell—his imagined version of her. Her lips are stamped with the word “PARDON” in bold block letters, functioning as both a gag and a symbolic label. Her earrings resemble stylized vulvas, reinforcing themes of sexual exploitation and complicity. The cartoon satirizes Trump’s fantasy of control, suggesting he envisions pardoning Maxwell—who was convicted for trafficking underage girls for Jeffrey Epstein—as a way to obscure his involvement in the Epstein files.

"Trump’s churlish speech—and his faulty finger-pointing—only further display how isolating his presidency has been on an international level. Trump’s constant hammering of the U.N. may cause countries that once depended on us as allies to go elsewhere, or strengthen their relationships without us."

So that’s where my long pink missing one got to!

The time to cleanse the BBC (modern Augean Stables) is so long overdue - all the Johnsonian/Tory matey appointees must be crowbarred out of their offices and replaced by a selection of reasonable minded human beings. Cast open the windows, let in the light and fresh air.

Now I know what the big crashing sound coming from your direction was = scales falling from eyes perhaps 🤔!😏

The BBC silenced Remainer voices for over 2 years after the Brexit referendum, even though around 50% of voters opposed Brexit. It barely mentioned our London marches.

The BBC has been the politically corrupt tool of the rabid right for around a decade.

Starmer must act to defend democracy.

Farage is so determined to suck up to the Trump administration that he's willing to put the nation's risk at health through dangerous insinuation. That's what is really going on here and its disgusting.

Reform's plan for a benefit clampdown Sir, Regarding Reform's plan to ban foreigners from claiming benefits ("Farage visas would make it harder to settle in the UK", news, Sep 22; "Time's Up", leading article, Sep 23), in my small company for the past ten years we have employed, on a yearly average, 32 eastern European people, two of them in senior management positions. They all pay British taxes and have had little or no unexplained absences to date. Sick leave for them is extremely low. As far as I am aware, none of them is claiming benefits for dependants. These diligent people provide compassionate care for their clients, living with them for a few weeks at a time. During the pandemic they were responsible for ensuring zero transmission of the virus to people in their care. I feel utterly ashamed that many of them will be reading about Nigel Farage's plan on their various social media platforms this morning. Chrstina Sell Managing director, Arbour

Our politics and media have become viciously obsessed with immigration. Farage has made sure of it. And in that obsession, they’ve all lost sight of the people they target. Fellow human beings trying to live and belong somewhere.
Shame on everyone responsible for this daily inhumanity

Fossil fuel & mining companies issue record number of lawsuits against govts to protect profits, defeat green policies & climate action.

Ed Davey, "It's so frustrating, so infuriating that Nigel Farage gets such an easy ride from the media"

"As he lies, as he divides, the BBC and others given Farage so much time and attention"

"But they never hold him to account for all the damage he has already done"

"The damage of Brexit"

Liberal Democrat Health Spokesperson Helen Morgan:

"Nigel Farage wants to impose Trump's dangerous anti-science agenda here in the UK. Peddling this kind of nonsense is irresponsible and wrong.

"It seems Farage would rather see pregnant women suffer in pain than stand up to his idol Donald Trump."

We can’t fix the NHS without tackling cancer waits. Supporting world-class research, and welcoming the experts who drive it, is part of that solution.

Farage refuses to criticise Trump over paracetamol despite health experts dismissing autism claims Reform UK leader says he has ‘no idea’ if US president is right to tell women to avoid drug during pregnancy * UK politics live – latest updates Nigel Farage has refused to criticise Donald Trump’s claims that paracetamol, sold in the US as Tylenol, could cause autism, insisting “science is never settled” and he would never “side with” medical experts. The Reform UK leader said he had “no idea” if the US president was right to tell pregnant women to avoid taking acetaminophen, also known as Tylenol and paracetamol, and suggesting that those who could not “tough it out” should limit their intake.

Resisting Faragism offers the Lib Dems a rare clarity of purpose | Rafael Behr Ed Davey’s rallying cry in defence of moderate, liberal Britain might give some coherence to a party with a reputation for opportunism, says Guardian columnist Rafael Behr

On anti-Faragism, the point of the Lib Dems and Ed Davey finding himself unmarked in front of an open goal www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Nigel Farage being pushed into a dangerous corner by Donald Trump... dangerous for our whole country 😬

Ed Davey must be the main opposition to Reform in the media. If, over the next six months, he's the media's go-to person for a response to whatever idiocy Farage is suggesting, and he's also talking about positive Lib Dem proposals, his position is safe. If not, he may face a leadership challenge.

Farage's comments are stupid because they ignore decades of scientific studies disproving any link between paracetamol and autism, and falsely compare a well-studied medicine to the thalidomide disaster—spreading needless fear and conspiracy nonsense. Typical of the man.
