Lords Heseltine & Kinnock seem more alive to these self-evident truths than most members of the Commons. Similarly, I find thinkers with direct lived experience of far right dictatorship, Greeks of a certain age for example, crystal clear about what’s happening now.

Mike Johnson says he'll swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social as soon as she wants. Okay, so how about today?

If you can't see how this will end, then you're not paying attention (not least to what's going on on the other side of the Atlantic).

This is a lie.

There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.

But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

Interesting: Leaving the #ECHR would be a grave mistake, writes former UK Lord Chancellor and Justice Secretary Sir Robert Buckland KC👇

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Remembered this from last night and wondered for a moment whether I’d dreamed it. Sadly not.

What an admirably clear statement from the Jewish Leadership Council, especially when all of those involved must surely have been dealing with so many other urgent challenges in safety, security and grief + shock today before having this further divisive and distracting intervention to address too.

On @lbc.co.uk now - please tune in...

Quite bizarre to think there was a co-ordinated campaign to vandalise ULEZ cameras with like 5,000 incidents and people getting criminal records all because Sadiq Khan introduced a policy that's reduced pollution and saved people's lives.

COLLINS: So you're telling me you're willing to vote no every time?

BERNIE SANDERS: Damn right

Republicans don’t need a single democratic vote to fund their regime. Here’s why. Please share widely.

Keir Starmer’s words being deliberately misquoted on headlines round the Country.

We need Leveson 2. And if you watch the Hack you will see why.

Just fuck off with this. How about start the conversation by highlighting how much immigrants contribute to the UK - not least by propping up the NHS and social care system!

Also - forced volunteering is not volunteering, it's unpaid labour.

Reform MP backs up Nigel Farage claims that migrants are coming for your birds.

Merseyside family left 'terrified' by Nigel Farage's latest plans Rory, Jana and their children are one of many families in the UK that could be deeply impacted by Reform UK's plans to scrap indefinite leave to remain

"We are fully embedded in Merseyside life: we work full-time, pay taxes, run a business, and own our home, but after Reform UK's announcement about scrapping or undermining ILR, families like mine are now fearful”

Waking to #r4today striving to make sense of Trump’s speech without acknowledging the elephant in the room - he’s deranged.

If Europe keeps placating its own far right, how can it possibly stand up to Trump? | Thu Nguyen and Jannik Jansen European leaders’ weakness is undermining the democratic principles on which the EU was built, say Thu Nguyen and Jannik Jansen from the Jacques Delors Centre

"History shows this damage-limitation strategy cannot win over authoritarian actors. And each concession chips away at the stigma that once kept far-right ideas at the margins. What was once extreme is increasingly treated as normal".

Farage’s plans to abolish Indefinite Leave to Remain would ruin lives and tear families apart.

Rather than dismissing Reform’s xenophobic proposals as 'unrealistic' or 'unaffordable', our government should be clear that they are cruel and unjust. We must stand up for migrants' rights.

Farage vows to scrap indefinite leave to remain, placing thousands at risk of deportation Reform UK plans to force non-citizens to apply for visas with high salary thresholds and no access to NHS services

Thousands of Londoners have indefinite leave to remain.

They have legal rights and are our friends, neighbours and colleagues, contributing hugely to our city.

Threatening to deport people living and working here legally is unacceptable.

Certainly, but having left the EU and weakened ourselves, it’s born of pragmatism. Not great to see but I understand why we’ve done it. To better times.
