Elon Musk is boosting the British right - and this shows how Elon Musk is boosting the British right - and this shows how

A magnificent piece of work. Comprehesive, revelatory & shocking. Journalism this good is always rare & precious but never moreso than at times like this. Latter day Lord Haw Haws being plumped, preened & delivered to your doorstep in plain sight by a Nazi-saluting goon

I hear the Epstein Ballroom will be illuminated solely by gaslighting.

No immigrant has ever sacked me, or cut my wages, or offshored my job, or closed my hospital, or stopped my mum's disability benefits, or crashed the economy.

Those things were all done by white English men who went to Oxford and wore a nice suit.

Dear @UKLabour,

No matter what good you do domestically

For so many of us, it won’t matter one tiny bit

You will forever be the party complicit in genocide.

The Telegraph today carries a news story about someone paying Β£7.4 million for a handbag (Hello, Lady Bracknell!). And an opinion piece describing a wealth tax as a β€˜moral abomination’. What a time to be alive.

Not just excess, it’s a system built to keep people hungry so the rich can keep feasting. But the masses are waking up.

Powerful video…

We were born on a planet abundant enough for everyone to thrive…

But the rich and powerful carved it up, waged war on what they couldn’t own, called it scarcity

…and sold us the illusion that we must compete for crumbs.

Word of the Day: HYPERNORMALISATION - the state of a society where people continue to live according to rules that they know are not actually working.

I think it would be good to get some women in charge of the countries that have nuclear weapons. Women talk to each other. Women can be reasonable. Enough with the macho men and swinging dicks.

See how quickly that escalated…

We put fragile, emotionally underdeveloped narcissists in power

…and then we wonder how wars start.

Please enjoy these shelter pups reacting to getting a kiss. Some are bashful, some have butterflies, and all deserve approximately 10 million more. 14/10 for all

All of us.... every single last one of us... are descended from immigrants. And without it, this country would just be a bunch of uninhabited islands on the edge of the world. Everything that built this country... and everything it is... springs from that. And we should embrace it, not decry it.

There's not many around to ask but I reckon there's one group who think the commemorations of WW2 are too much - the people who lived through it.
My parents and relations who fought and lived through 39-45 rarely mentioned it.

Starmer is not a brave man. I still do not know what he stands for. Leaders need to have a clear vision and be brave!

Old oak tree with twisted branches in autumn woodland of ancient oaks

A single 400-year-old ancient oak produces 234,000 litres of oxygen a year while soaking up carbon dioxide, and can support more than 2,000 species of bird, insect, fungus, and lichen. Nature is amazing - we need more of it, not less. Please repost if you agree 🌳

Stunning view of episode 18 of the ongoing eruption.

1. There has been a major effort by that old combination – big business and the far right – to diss foods derived from plants. The meat lobby invests big time in misinformation. And the far right hates β€œsoyboys”, while associating itself with red meat-eating. It's a match made in hell. 🧡

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.
