Jim Watson you're a genius.
Or is it a divine intervention?

Fortunately bookies odds are based as much on the weight of money going in a particular direction as the probability of a specific outcome?
When did this become a market to bet on?
And
Who else is known to be touting themselves for the award?
Saying he the bookies favourite is meaningless really.

Robert Jenrick holds up a judges wig like a puppet during his speech to the Conservative Party Conference.

We have an independent judiciary in this country. Robert Jenrick wants puppet judges.

The Conservative Party once believed in the rule of law and our shared British values - no longer.

Self interest and in one case in particular a family history of support for and promotion of fascism.

The Trump playbook at work?

Up there as an image with the iconic lone protester and tank in Tiananmen Square.
That's where you are now in the US.

Why would a cycle route take you to Old Trafford?
Who's gonna cycle from Kent?

Balance, my arse.

This is a lie.

There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.

But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

Goody-bag merch from Tory Conference branded "When Labour negotiates Britian loses" and signed "Kemi Badenoch".

It helps to be able to spell the country you say only you are competent enough to run.

Love this. Superbly done. Please send this far and wide. @donwinslow.bsky.social

This is what a Tory party conference looks like without corporate lobbyists.
This during the shadow chancellor s key speech.
Even big interests in business know they're finished.

It seems there's a playbook being followed.

Austerity II anyone?
47 billion reasons to avoid voting for a sequel.
If you believe you avoided the direct negative impacts last time, don't expect to be so lucky if you give them yet another chance.
In any case we're still living in the shadows of Austerity 1 everywhere you look.

Syed Ways indeed. Matthew Syed is proof the Overton Window has been successfully repositioned.
We're in the 'inside out' as well as the 'upside down'.

A mass shooting in Alabama, but no, send troops to Portland. A democratic judge and senator's house gets burned down, but no, it's the left that's violent. Sickening.

Left: Kemi Badenoch says the attack on the Synagogue "was not just an attack on British Jews, it was an attack on all of us"

Right: Kemi Badenoch did not mention the mosque set alight

Isn't an attack on a mosque "not just an attack on British Muslims, it was an attack on all of us" - as well?

YouTube video by The Guardian Patrick Stewart sketch: what has the ECHR ever done for us?

‘Nine-jobs Nigel’ Farage denies not declaring extra earni... Roles outside Parliament make Reform leader the highest-earning MP, but register of interests has not been updated since end of May

Nine jobs Nigel Farage hasn't updated his ­register of interests in months.

Potentially hundreds of thousands of ££££ from his many "outside interests" remain undeclared

This whole thread is so depressing and indicative of why social media damns us all to endless categorisation based on little knowledge of one another.

“Call it ‘order’ if you want, but what I see is a cop assaulting an unarmed civilian. In 1933 Germany, ‘police brutality’ wasn’t a concept either—just state-sanctioned violence. Portland is the warning: this is how democracy dies.”

A hideous, and for traumatised British Jews profoundly unhelpful, expression of allyship & agreement with a violent, racist, serial criminal & former member of an avowedly anti-Semitic organisation from the *Israeli Minister of Diaspora Affairs* and so, as Sunder says, the Israeli government. 1/3

To misquote Mary Howitt, 'Will you walk into my parlour said the fly to the spider'

I wish you all the luck in the world.

Kemi Badenoch mistakenly says NI voted in favour of Brexit In a BBC NI interview, the Tory leader said the

Reform UK have quietly reinstated the councillor that threatened the Prime Minister (and WAY more), without explanation.

Javier Milei had to beg a bail-out and already needs another. Argentina's economy is in a tailspin. Gov't bonds and peso in freefall. People starving, throwing rocks at him.

Farage last year: "He's amazing. It's Thatcherism on steroids. Cutting and slashing expenditure. That's leadership."

Not hilarious or even mildly funny. It's too serious to be honest.
We need Leveson II.
