Donald Trump's Gen Z popularity plunges A poll shows the president's net favorable rating among those aged 18-29 has fallen dramatically in the past three months.

Gen Z's opinion of Trump has shifted dramatically in just 3 months; a massive negative shift of 37 points from +19 to -18. It's too bad it took implementing Project 2025 instead of just reading it or watching a video about it or listening to a podcast about it.

4th February 2025, Norman Wisdom would have been 110. So here's a photo of him at The Goldstone, former home of Brighton & Hove Albion FC, singing "a new club song" (I was told it was Sussex by the Sea)

@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social this evening was the worst in a couple of decades. Paddy’s a lovely person, of course. But the presentation was terrible. And the content even worse.

Stay up to date with our work to end fox hunting and protect British wildlife by following us over on Instagram, we're on our way to 100,000!

The scale of the decline of Google search in quality, relevance, usability and more should have triggered a full-scale alarm in Alphabet’s boardroom months ago.

The fact the company is just plodding on while its core product is visibly worse than it was is a disaster.

It’s Monday, for those who celebrate.

I'm so glad to find Auschwitz Memorial on here. If you haven't followed them already, please do so now.

Hello BlueSky. Sorry, we were delayed on our journey here. This is the official account for #BHAFC fanzine Dogma. Issue 14 is in development now, with lots of other exciting plans in the pipeline. Our aim is, quite literally, to paint the city Blue and White. SEAGULLS!

Archbishop of Canterbury: “Hold my beer…”

Tis the feast of St Nicholas, 4th century Bishop of Myra. Legend has it he rescued 3 boys who had been killed and put in a barrel by a butcher who wanted to pickle them then sell them off as ham.

3,060 trees planted at the cost of just over £12!

UK cheeses miss out on international prize after getting stuck in customs At the World Cheese Awards in Portugal, British entries were conspicuous by their absence after failing to clear import controls

British cheeses miss out at the World Cheese Awards in Portugal - not because they weren’t worthy of prizes, but because they got stuck in customs. What a metaphor for Brexit www.theguardian.com/food/2024/no... nho

I'm old enough to remember when Food Banks weren't a thing.
And now we got supermarkets trying to get our Christmas custom by their virtuousness in supporting them. Personally I want an end to them (with people able to afford their food). Am I being Marxist?

Evan Ferguson starts at Wembley this evening! 🇮🇪
