Incredible amount of China-panic over at the other place, apparently they might be trying to influence the UK away from democracy.
Funnily enough not mentioned is the other superpower whose leaders have explicitly stated their intentions in that direction.

You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes.
Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

@mattbishopmp.bsky.social - this is absolutely ridiculous.
These people have sucked the money out of water companies & given back nothing in return.
Time to call them out - permanently.

Michael Gove admits that post-Brexit trade deals were bad for farmers
Michael Gove has admitted for the first time that the Australia and New Zealand trade deals negotiated by the former Tory government did not protect Britainโs farmers.
This deserves more attention than it has received.
Gove: "we were too anxious as a government to secure those deals in order to show that Brexit was working".
Exactly as so many of us warned at the time, and as the government denied at the time.

The image shows a healthcare worker in blue scrubs gently holding an older personโs hand, symbolising care and solidarity. Text on the image reads โSign the EveryDoctor Charter.

As @bengoldsborough.bsky.social shared earlier this year, cash is a lifeline for rural communities.
That's why we're calling on the government to #KeepCashAlive and preserve our only form of public money โ

The biggest lie in economics: why โrational manโ or "homo economicus"never existed
Neoclassical economics is built on myths โ and none is more absurd than the idea of homo economicus: the perfectly rational, fully informed, self-interested human who supposedly drives all economic decision-making.

The "man of the people" rides a Bentley stuffed with unexplained cash while playing martyr.
The nano Nazi's theatrical defiance masks what any reasonable person suspects: a grifter who's cashing in on bigotry refusing to let authorities see the receipts.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.
The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.
Read that back.
When 400 people control more wealth than half a countryโs population, we have a very serious problem.
