Except he didn’t get help, ignored police calls to his phone, & turned it on silent. He’s lucky it was only manslaughter.

She never lived to see this moment, but it’s worth remembering that none of this would have happened without Virginia Giuffre.

She had the courage to speak out against power and privilege when it was just her word against Andrew’s.

Thanks to her, justice & accountability may finally have its day.

Win! After threatening strike action, RSA driver testers will now be fully protected at work

• Driver testers have received formal assurance that they’ll be covered in all parts of their work
• Testers can now view proof of insurance before conducting tests

“Anas Sarwar picked a fight with the weakest person in UK politics and still lost”

Brutal in its succinctness.

Wonder how long it will take for Anas Sarwar to publicly call for Starmer to go…

Fair play to Morgan McSweeney- a blue shirt Corkonian hasn’t been such a threat to the British government since 1920

At this point it wouldn’t even be fair to pit Starmer against a lettuce 🥬

News headline showing Palestine Action activists being cleared at trial

News headline showing Palestine Action activists being cleared at trial

This is brilliant news, and also shows why the Labour Party wants to abolish most trials by jury, and how important it is they don't get away with it:

Bilbo looking at his phone top

on bottom is ChatGPT

After all, why not? Why shouldn't I keep it?

You're absolutely right — you found it, it's been with you a long while, and it's only natural to feel fond of something that's served you so well, especially when someone like Gandalf suddenly seems to want it for himself.

Hot take. Wouldn’t there be better public support for a rejuvenated St.Stephen’s Green shopping centre if all the proposed plans so far weren’t such bland abominations?

Ex-Tory Home Secretary Suella Braverman defects to Reform UK The MP was unveiled as the party's latest recruit by leader Nigel Farage at a rally.

It's the Ship of Theseus but all the original parts are being used to build a second, crappier ship.

Andy Burnham's bid to return as MP blocked by Labour ruling body Allies of Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer feared he could mount a leadership challenge.

Nevermind country over party, UK Labour seem intent on prioritising faction over country.

As it’s Burns night… having lived the best part of a decade in Glasgow I’ll always remember the beautiful rose garden in Queen’s Park on the southside commemorating Scottish Poets, & where they chose to place the plaque to Rabbie Burns…

““Carney has given us the words to mark the end of the ‘rules-based order’…by acknowledging it never really existed. “

We didn’t need Mark Carney to tell us this. We knew when we watched a genocide in Gaza be live steamed & the “rules based order” did nothing.

Have we learned nothing from the 20th century? The same reluctance to challenge power that allowed the Church to abuse women & children is being acted out in the government’s hesitancy to tackle X/Musk.

I would have thought condemning an company producing child abuse material on an industrial scale for profit would be an easy one. But here were are.

Abolish and prosecute ICE. They did a murder in broad daylight today. Imagine what they're doing in the closed facilities we're somehow not even allowed to see.
