The Next Terrorist Attack And What Comes After (Updated)

Modern tyranny is terror management.
I wrote this essay in April 2025 and updated it in November. I'm posting it again now because my fear of this scenario has continued to grow.

What a result for Hearts.

Just naked racism from Farage and the Mail.

Only British and commonwealth citizens are allowed to vote. It's not 'stealing' to legally take part in your own country's elections

The current argument of the British right is that Muslims turned out in "blocs" with "family voting" to cast their ballots for a party led by a gay Jewish man, and this shows that multiculturalism has failed, voting is "sectarian" and we are in a crisis.

Hmmmmmm.

David Graeber made a warning about Keir Starmer in 2020. They did not listen

Thirteen years ago tonight the Cowdenbeath Thistle match was abandoned due to fog. The rest, if you’re a Thistle fan, is history.

Labour’s Send revolution is a high-stakes experiment. It also threatens precious parental rights | John Harris Bridget Phillipson’s 10-year plan is generous in places, but it has its problems. Not least that it could be trashed by a Reform government, says Guardian columnist John Harris

And here it is: the SEND reform plan, and why - for all its good intentions - it threatens a terrifying loss of rights, just when the worst imaginable govt might be newly in power www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Peter Mandelson has been arrested by the Metropolitan Police under suspicion of Misconduct in Public Office, following search warrants at two addresses in the Wiltshire and Camden

Comedy genius Stan Laurel died on this day in 1965.

Ulverston-born, he did a fair bit of his growing up in Glasgow, while his dad managed the old Metropole Theatre, next door to the Scotia Bar.

Stan also made his stage debut in Glasgow, at the Pantopticon Music Hall, on Trongate.

I had thought they had blown it. Punched the air when I saw they had gotten the third.

There’s been a glitch in the Matrix.

Closer examination of the Epstein files provokes fresh questions about Reform UK treasurer Nick Candy and his brother Christian’s development of the One Hyde Park super-prime apartment block: messages within the latest release appear to contradict their tax-avoiding account of the project.

Had a great visit to the Moonwake brewery in Leith today.

Ah yeah, remember the good old days when the only way into the 24-hour butcher's was via a trapdoor in the miniature phone box?

FACT OF THE DAY. 21 February 1946. Aneurin Bevan announced the Labour Government’s proposals for a National Health Service. The service began on 5 July 1948. Its introduction represented one of the greatest social reforms in British History which helped every citizen.

The People's Palace is an important working-class history museum which tells the story of how ordinary people banded together and challenged bosses, landlords and governments to make Glasgow and Scotland a better place to live and work. It's shocking it will now remain closed.

Farage talks about the Second World War quite a lot for someone who would inevitably have spent it interned on the Isle of Man.

See the list of 23 MPs who accepted donations from Labour Together LABOUR Together is under fire after it emerged that the think tank that propelled Keir Starmer to power has been accused of spying on journalists…

The 23 Labour MPs who were funded by the shady “think tank” Labour Together, formerly led by Morgan Mcsweeney and Josh Simons.

Good work @agcreports.bsky.social

The front pages of the Daily Mail, Sun, Independent, Daily Star, Daily Record, Daily Mirror, Times, Daily Express and Daily Telegraph. All show the photo of the pedo Prince looking like he’s seen the devil himself - hiding in the back seat of his car as he’s driven away from the police station yesterday. A truly beautiful collage of consequence.

I can’t remember the last time a single photo dominated the front page of every major newspaper in the UK.

Phil Noble of Reuters, take a bow.
