British people moving back from Dubai should be taxed at 100% until we’ve made up the difference

the incentives here are so obscenely terrible that the entire thing should be illegal by default

β€œI am sabotaging negotiations because I stand to make piles of money on Polymarket” is absolutely in play, what a horrifying clusterfuck

I thought Keir’s best speech during the GE campaign was his speech on not being able to afford the little things that bring us joy. Really baffled me that he’s trying to paint Hannah as such an extremist when she has essentially given a more articulate version of one of his own GE speeches

Yesterday was the biggest PokΓ©mon Day we have ever had on Serebii, and even beat out the launch days for PokΓ©mon X & Y and PokΓ©mon Sun & Moon, which is nuts.

I can't thank you enough for all of your support; I always worry with PokΓ©mon Day coverage, especially when I'm away.

Yeah, having now slept on it properly, it is weird that no losing parties statement really reckons with why people might have chosen the Greens and instead they all chose to blame sectarianism. It does suggest that they still don't really recognise people who vote Green as, you know, real people.

Yeah if they've made a competitive battle simulator used for official tournaments pay to win then I'm really concerned

This 'correction' from @lewisgoodall.com regarding accusations from Reform and the Conservatives that the Greens engaged in sectarianism, deserves to be widely read.

BREAKING: it appears that the MHRA, in control of the UK puberty blocker trial, appointed a senior officer who had previously mocked supporters of trans rights online.

Recusal is not enough here. He and those responsible for appointing him should resign.

How can trans people trust them now?

To be absolutely clear: this is the lowest percentage of the vote in a by-election for the Conservatives or Tories since the party was founded at the time of the Glorious Revolution in 1689.

Labour MP Ian Byrne: "The lines from the PM and Cabinet today essentially labelling the Green Party as extremist is appalling, desperate and frankly embarrassing.

"It also makes very clear that the leadership has zero understanding of where it has been going wrong."

A consistent recurring theme of Farage byelection losses over a decade - Oldham 2015 with Ukip, Peterborough 2019 with Brexit Party, Gorton & Denton 2026 - is to talk loudly about electoral challenges about minority voters. But never to actually put the case to authorities. Media should spot pattern

Does this mean one more regulation in SV?

Because launching in April is pretty... Tight turnaround for team building

β€œGorton and Denton now have a divisive MP and they deserved a Labour MP” is actually quite an insult to 40+% of those who voted lmao

They deserve to be humiliated as much as the Tory party has been. Blind ignorance of the issues facing this country, their electorate and why people aren’t voting for them.

You came third in a seat you’ve held for years. Have some fucking shame.
