It's smoke and mirrors and Carney is a willing partner with the US and all the shitbirds who run it

Why experts say Trump is unlikely to win the Nobel Peace Prize this year Longtime Nobel watchers say Trump’s prospects remain remote despite a flurry of high-profile nominations and some notable foreign policy interventions for which he has taken personal credit.

Why is PBS even entertaining this foolery?

While I agree that it wd have been a sign of empathy and respect towards the Jewish communities in Britain to pause the protest on this very day, I also do find these attempts to declare who is British and who isn't increasingly worrying.

He’s the guy who was unanimously hailed by the press for destroying racism in his party and then went on to do an anti-migrant speech ripping off Enoch Powell while the same journos coughed awkwardly and said it was certainly quite extraordinary

As a guy with crohn's disease who often has to ask to use bathrooms in cafes etc on the fly, I just wanna say that it is always morally correct to refuse to let ICE to use your toilets. If they rupture their bowel and shit themselves to death in your doorway, that's what big wheelie bins are for.

We're officially in extreme drought. Hoping for that to give way to extreme, relentless, pissing down rain.

It's gone. It's not reclaimable. It's a symbol of colonialism and racist hatred. Sticking a wanky little phrase across it isn't going to change that. Sticking yet more flags all over the place is going to make people feel further isolated by it though, and give the racists just what they want.

NEW: A source very close to the senior leadership of MI6 has got in contact. They wanted to make public the opposition within the intelligence agency to the proscription of Palestine Action.
Senior figures are said to feel it is a distraction from the battle against real terrorist threat - and should never have happened.
The source has been verified.

Guys, every person you see on Fox News in a mask is just Robert O'Neill, retired Navy Seal and occasional Fox News contributor. He's the former Antifa, former Gazan, former gang member. His eyes are very unique.

They're really on a mission to make you feel like you're responsible for climate change if you need meds to breathe. Tell you what, reduce some of the billionaires to not being billionaires to help greenhouse gasses & we'll keep staying alive with our inhalers.

This website would genuinely be so much better if there was a special Discover tab for Americans that only show them posts by other Americans so the rest of us stop getting aggro from their most brain fried centrists who seem genuinely bewildered by context and angry that other places exist

I see pieces like this a lot, often w/ a spin of lamenting cultural degeneration, but reading is a LABOR issue, it’s declined because so many people are working overtime or two jobs & employers expect after hours work. France has Earth’s highest reading rate b/c long lunch breaks & labor protections

He's not wrong, though. Hollywood is mediocre but that's a bit rich coming from the man who made Exodus, Gods and Kings.

odd how the people claiming to build the 'decentralized network of the future' still somehow have veto power over everyone else?

Every large-scale platform is run by techno-fascists, that's just reality. This is the only social media I'm on because the community of good people is strong and important but it's also vulnerable to the whims of those in charge, who aren't our friends. Best to keep that in mind.

If I were an investigative journalist in the UK (are there any left?), I would be having a good look at the extent to which NHS leadership seems to have allied itself with a fringe medical movement that more or less condones conversion therapy. qnews.com.au/australian-r...
