israeli terrorists are burning down the Christian town of Taybeh in the West Bank, uprooting Palestinians for jared’s resort😢

Saw a news report yesterday about children as young as 9 being given weight loss jabs on the NHS, and I think it shows just how utterly bullshit the “lack of research into long term impacts” excuse for banning puberty blockers for trans kids really was. It’s purely ideological.

The men who raised the flags Nigel Farage says this summer’s movement was led by ‘ordinary people’ expressing their patriotism. That’s not what we found

It's not a grassroots working class movement.

"Wherever we looked for prominent flaggers and leaders of this movement, we found people smugglers and sex doll salesmen, people with dubious criminal pasts and people willing to put in a good word for Adolf Hitler."

The East India Company spent most of the half-century prior to 1820 in various states of looming bankruptcy, vexatious scandal, and aggressive war. Famine and revolt erupted routinely on its watch. Is this a good thing?

Following three years of significant investments in addiction services, opioid overdoses have declined by 32% in the last year.

We’re saving lives and showing what’s possible when we meet this crisis with compassion and action.

Think that would've had a chance of working if he'd been upfront about everything at the start of the campaign. Basically making it part of central message of why he's running.

Reminder: We spent YEARS reading thousands and thousands of articles on the Tea Party and how it was a true expression of the American people's will, and it never mounted anything nearly as big as Saturday's No Kings rallies. [1/3]

Tel Aviv football derby between Hapoel and Maccabi called off after rioting Israeli police make nine arrests, citing ‘disorderly conduct, riots, injured police officers’ and infrastructure damage

Starmer should never have got involved with the decision of the local authorities in Birmingham regarding the Villa match and linking it to anti-semitism was idiotic.

handwritten note from Carter-Ruck's file saying "They will bring in blockchain -> if no blockchain -> scam -> fraud -> criminal"

NEW: Britain’s top libel firm, Carter-Ruck, acted for OneCoin - a $4bn crypto-fraud.

The firm threatened whistleblowers, journalists, regulators, and even the police.

Carter-Ruck's work helped the fraud continue as long as it did.

Was that a crime?

A miracle they’re still alive. Elated for their families. Can’t help but think of all the hostages who would have also come home two years ago had Netanyahu chosen his own people over his thirst for war.

Our media seem to love it as well. Bit sickening watching many of them this morning suddenly decide that Israeli Gov ministers claims about UK recognition of Pal state set all this back. You'd think this wasn't basically same CF agreement on offer for a while now it's been rebranded by Trump.

Ubisoft reportedly cancelled development on its next Assassin's Creed game last year over political concerns due to its planned post-American Civil War setting.

Charisma has never really been a necessity for people who make a living telling the wealthy and powerful how right and special they are. Sadly it's the modern version of Kings and nobles putting their fav courtiers in nice jobs trying to increase their own influence and power.

Had a similar reaction. When did pandering to wealthy people who've become so precious that they can't handle anyone criticising them become "Contrarian". It's like one of the oldest professions in the world. The wealthy and powerful have always had their groupies telling them they're great.

Like most bad pundits he keeps on telling the same crappy stories over and over again.

Pretty certain he was telling the same story in one of last Netflix specials or at least one just like it that was also not funny. Mind you couldn't finish the last couple he'd done felt like he couldn't even bother trying to be funny in them.

Let's be clear a what's happening here: the "censorship" and "bias" narrative is being extended to Wikipedia bc the far right knows that getting bullshit into LLMs is how to shape reality as "answer engines" replace search engines.

Wikipedia is core to that fight so the grievance blitz is here.

Starmer on Tuesday: "We must stand against racism"
Starmer on Wednesday: "Human rights laws are stopping us sending people to face torture so we need to rethink them."

Labour on Tuesday: "Labour is the party of working people"
Labour on Wednesday: "If your boss mistreats you, tough shit"

Sitting watching Good Morning Britain hosts complain about Keir Starmer talking too much about Farage and Reform in the last few days is something to see. You wouldn't think this very programme spends nearly every morning from 6.30-7am speaking about cheering on Farage, Reform and immigration.

Mate you don't even understand WC people in your own country give it break with trying to understand people like my family and me here in UK. Like most idiots pushing this crap you don't seem to understand the difference in size between UK and US and why that would change the politics of fracking.

@KillaKreww MrBeast had a contestant TRAPPED inside a BURNING house to win $500,000 in his new video [link] @MrBeast This blew up, if you're curious obviously we had ventilation for the smoke and a kill switch to cut off the fires. We had professionals test this extensively and the guy in the video as stated is a professional stunt man. I take safety more serious than you could ever imagine.

Content creators tend to think any spectacle is defensible if they can say health and safety concerns have been attended to behind the scenes, but that’s not really it imho. Mr. Beast’s whole thing is that his subjects’ desperation for cash allows him—a wealthier person—to indulge his sadism.

I fully understand how difficult it is to remain focused on any one particular atrocity but this really ought to be a serious scandal and people need to pay heavy prices for this

Ah great a peace plan between one side and the country who backs them why didn't anyone else think of that. Surely this'll get him a Nobel prize. Bibi must've been laughing all the way to the US thinking about how stupid Trump is.

The chief paradox of the next few decades is going to be that aging countries around the world need new people, but can't get them because they don't want the "wrong kind" of people

the modal domestic terrorist over the next decade is going to be a terminally online 20-something who cooks their brain in irony-poisoned social media spaces and decides to kill a bunch of people as an elaborate shitpost

Why are the American president's claims about autism the first item on British news bulletins?

He's not our president, the advice doesn't apply here and he's not presented any evidence to support his assertions.

So why spread these claims? What make this the biggest story in the UK?
