sounds like a good news story

You’re just the second best fictional clergy

This self harm - the loss of jobs, prestige, innovation, soft power - because of the ‘genius’ McSweeney strategy of sucking up to Reform voters, racists & right wing newspapers…

None of whom will ever vote, like or endorse anything Lab does

A toxic brew of political cowardice and stupidity

ReTory

Wasn’t Willetts also a key figure in the selling off of council houses?

And how the architect of it all - David Willetts NEVER gets grilled on this by journalists…when talking about generational unfairness…

This is £600m from the same university sector that is pretty close to collapse in a growing number of major institutions?

Many of them universities that are among the biggest employers in the very ‘left behind’ towns and cities that Labour talks so much about…

Genuine q - In pol journo work could anyone ask gov…where exactly did that policy come from? WHO proposed it? Guessing they would never respond to that
The tax on int students is crazy…just wish there could be some accountability

Blue Labour attacks on universities continue

One of Britain’s biggest success stories must suffer cos…you know…the 20% of voters who hate all foreigners, vote reform, will never vote Labour…but the govt priority is to place their prejudices over the national interest

You have a tax on international students, you have less of them, huh, you have less revenue, and whoopsdaisy, you're back to the taxes you didn't want to hike and everyone is cross.

I left Twitter in 2015 ten years ago because of the scale of threats, abuse, cyber-stalking I received & the real world impact it had on me personally & professionally. Under Musk X is worse. He is a foreign hostile actor, interferes in our democracy, incites violence. Gov should be bold & abandon X

The letter the BBC could send to Trump in reply to his $1bn claim 12th November 2025 Yesterday this blog offered a close reading of the letter Trump’s lawyers had sent to the British Broadcasting Corporation. As a follow-up, this is a letter that the BBC could se…

"You state in your letter three times that your client has suffered “overwhelming financial and reputational harm”. This is presumably on the Beetlejuice principle that it you say something three times it somehow appears"

Is there a more useless lens for understanding culture and society than ‘gen’ this or ‘gen’ that ?

While doubtful Starmer knew this was being done, surely no doubt McSweeney knew - and approved - how on earth is he still in employment?

The first of what we can hope will be many legal victories for the music industry in its fight against the AI pirates. A Munich court ruled that OpenAI had breached copyright law and was liable to be sued for damages for appropriating content without authorisation.

BBC board member with Tory links ‘led charge’ in systemic bias claims, say insiders Sources say Robbie Gibb amplified criticisms of Trump, Gaza and trans rights coverage, and had ‘a lot of oxygen in the room’

Well, this is quite a serious allegation. I do hope the BBC shows true impartiality and investigate whether or not some of its Board members are systemically biased. www.theguardian.com/media/2025/n...

Bluesky want to add an algorithm to create more filter bubbles? Heavy sigh…

Elon Musk is once again inciting violence on British streets because the government has taught him there are literally no consequences for doing so.

They even carry on using his far-right social network to promote government policy as he does it. The absence of backbone is *astounding*.

Unlike Zarah it seems, I support international solidarity against fascist imperialism and that’s why I support military & humanitarian aid to Ukraine.

There’s no peace without defending Ukraine. There’s no peace with Russian occupation.

Our public service broadcasters channeling Trump’s- very fine people on both sides.
We are in big trouble

Massive news. Some one has invented owned media, and here’s the marmalade dropper… it isn’t the same as journalism. Mind blown

Hard stare that should read

Next time Vance tries to criticise the UK about free speech - just give him a hard star and project this onto a large screen

There you go!

…the university where genetic fingerprinting was invented and is a core part of the UK space sector….
