Look it's very simple, Britain faces an existential threat of socially conservative Muslim voters bringing in Sharia law by voting as a bloc for woke progressives who will turn all our children trans.

Labour’s response to the by-election tracker:

1, Starmer sends a letter saying the voters are bastards, I sense the hand of Galloway behind this

2, Mahmood statement: we’re going to be even more cartoonishly evil

3, we’re going to actively support more war crimes

Fractured Scottish poll bodes ill for Labour and Conservatives this May Scottish Labour trails in fourth on the regional list as the SNP lead on 34 and Reform UK hold second place, the final Scottish Election Study poll…

I momentarily forgot about the existence of vet's fees and was really confused about how expensive the butter was.

There‘s lots of political incidents that still need clear accountability but if the Epstein stuff just gets turned into a stupid meme for zany tik toks and reels and there’s no justice then I feel like it will make people more insane than usual. How can anyone carry on pretending like it’s normal

Anas Sarwar launched his Holyrood campaign almost entirely on the foundations of how much people are right to hate and fear trans people and they should be segregated from society.

Within a few weeks he then completely botched a coup on his own boss and his career looks likely to be over.

Fitting.

omg thank you

After a century of defending other countries against foreign aggression, the United States is now positioned as an imperial power trying to seize another nation's land. • Listen to this article • 11:40 min Learn more By Peter Baker Peter Baker is the chief White House correspondent. He and his wife, Susan Glasser, asked President Trump about Greenland during a 2021 interview for their book on his first term.

I remain awestruck that you can be chief WH correspondent of the New York Times while apparently accepting the version of history that you were taught in grade school in the 1970’s

people keep being like “hey sorry for the beef last week/year/decade” and I cannot even describe to you how little you care about or even remember any internet beef when you see 50 cars full of masked paramilitaries roll into your immediate neighborhood every day. all is forgiven, fight with us

I only just saw this last month for the first time!

Okay, but this tragedy has happened right now under Starmer's Labour.

Extract from Rob Reiner's Wikipedia Filmography 1986 - Stand By zme 1987 - The Princess Bride 1989 - When Harry Met Sally 1990 - Misery 1992 - A Few Good Men

Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama.

Us: Across your entire career?

Reiner: In a 6 year period.

Us: That sounds-

I had to look twice at this because at first I thought Colin the Caterpillar had been in some kind of awful accident

read the first two "Culture" series books while vacationing, and though they are ripping yarns and perfect beach reads (especially Consider Phlebas) the standard view amongst the technology brothers that they are somehow serious looks at a plausible (if deep) future never really occurred to me

i do think there is a degree of deserved poo-poohing that police/prison abolitionists have earned through their inability to articulate their ideas in a readable way but i find it very funny when that comes from americans who believe in equally insane shit like "a for-profit healthcare system"

Screenshot of a headline reading: "Refugees' jewellery could be seized to pay for asylum costs, says Home Office minister."

This is a new low from a govt plumbing the depths of performative cruelty in hopes that the public won’t notice they have no answers to the real issues facing this country

A sensible, humane govt would focus on safe routes to prevent people making dangerous small boat crossings

if you live in Edinburgh, or nearby, and love trams ... you've not got long to do the consultation consultationhub.edinburgh.gov.uk/sfc/tram-nor...

It is great how on its face ridiculous it is when these transphobes go on about “dangerous biological men“ and its 10 of the hottest women youve ever seen lmao

I for one will not be satisfied until he has the "Andrew" taken away as well. He has three middle names, let him use those.

this is great, FYI Edinburgh people

One of the really, really toxic elements of stale 2-party politics is the notion that parties "own" voters.

It's on full display here.
