800 words please on why this proves the Labour and Conservative strategy to primarily target Reform voters is working perfectly.

After justices warned of prolonged suffocation, Alabama subjected Anthony Boyd to the longest nitrogen execution in U.S. history. Boyd was the chairman of Project Hope, a death row-led nonprofit. Its members are left reeling in the wake of their leader's suffocation execution.

This is horrifying beyond words: www.treadbylee.com/p/after-just...

Off to a good start for me with violent stomach upset and food poisoning 🙃

TFW you wake up with the “thousand pies” song in your head from Octonauts and the Great Barrier Reef.

Going to hospital four times in two weeks is four times too many.

I shudder at the very thought of it. What times we’re living through.

That’s awful. I hope your friend is okay. Solidarity and love to them.

When the fascists went to university (and the campaigns to keep them out) Recently there have been several mentions of Oswald Mosley being invited to speak at universities in the early 1960s. One from a piece in The Times opining for the ‘lost days of campus free s…

In the 1950s-60s, British fascists, such as Oswald Mosley, were invited to speak at various university campuses. They used these invitations to portray themselves as part of a legitimate debate (while also courting infamy), but their speeches were often opposed.

I mean, call me a Loony Lefty if you want, but it *is* starting to look a bit weird arresting disabled pensioners protesting peacefully one day and telling coked up bellends attacking you to “calm down” another day the same month.

Obviously, just my opinion. I might have got it wrong.

Today people went around my neighborhood in north east London spray painting St George’s crosses onto people’s homes. Many of these houses have non British people living in them.

This is getting very dark, very quick.

Meme; far right extremist shoots another far right extremists and then says "Why did trans people do this?"

My friend was travelling in from Bromley, where there was a flag waving maniac stood outside the station with a BB gun and accosting every black and brown person who passed him. She reported to BTP and they said they’d had hundreds of reports like hers.

I really hope not either 😩

With the recent news about Greenwich and Kent I think this is honestly what they think the solution is.

UCL, Kings and LSE are so close you can walk between all three without finishing your coffee. Which one of you is closing your history department then, lads?

Can anyone on here recommend an audio transcription platform (I don’t mind it not being free but don’t have a budget for a person to do it right now, because the audio is 1h long and that would be £££) that transcribes in Haitian Kreyòl?

are more centred in these discussions? Not always the case of course, but I would think very much the case in this institutional example.

I guess in the context of the graffiti (a radical act of defiance/subversion done in isolation) there is no opportunity for dialogue about what might be wrong with its messaging (before that act has taken place). In the case of a cultural institution, there is, and ethics of care and community…

Today’s discovery is everyone who was too scared to speak up about against fascism or genocide has found their voice when condemning the death of a far right figure.

Thank you David. It never rains but it pours!

I’m not very good at looking after myself, I’m told!

Thank you!

Thanks Rebecca! Timing is terrible with the start of my new project, but when is there ever a good time for these things to happen?!

What a wild week. In and out of A&E and urgent care with a fractured leg and suspected thrombosis. I would say “stick a fork in me, I’m done”, but please don’t as I am now on blood thinners.

Thank you Miranda!! Would love to have you involved!

😂 going to make this my auto reply.

Again and again the press runs these numbers, and again and again they fail to point out that the foreign-born prison population is LOWER than the native-born, proportionally.

Because if they stated that basic fact, they wouldn't have a story, because the only story they want is "racism is right".

Today’s Labour think their job is to hold the public to account, down to whether we want watch porn anonymously and what toilets we use, and can’t let our desire for health and safety and decent wages and a pleasant environment get in the way of shareholder profits. Sad people!

Oooh this is out now!! Exciting!!!
