Tories are just negative about everything.

Oppose everything.

Complain about everything.

Pretend they are not responsible for all the failings they caysed from their 14 years in government.

They have short memories & think we do too.

But Communities Secretary put them straight!

Dear journalists: Shut up about the β€œspecial relationship”. There is UK reliance on the US but for the time being there is no special relationship in any meaningful sense and talking as if there still is sounds ridiculous

Lessons in leadership.

Think about the future moment not just your impulse in the moment.

And this is going to get worse and worse for those who leapt in with little to no thought for the likely outcomes

The choice, consciously or not, is as it always is for the Xi Jinping class, merit or obeisance. May he choose the latter.

They have mostly bought places in New Zealand which they plan to escape to. So if I were a hostile nation, New Zealand would be my preferred nuclear target after Trump's ballroom.

Humanist Climate Action interview: Dr Helen Czerski on oceans, humanism, and the planet’s life support system Dr Helen Czerski is our patron, Professor of the Environment and Society at University College London, and a scientist who specialises in the physics of the oceans. At our Convention in Sheffield last...

"So much climate damage comes from assuming that Earth is simple, that it is easy to control and that it will bend to our will. Standing up against those simplifying assumptions is fundamentally a humanist thing to do."

From a recent interview I did... here's the rest:

Cruelty to immigrants is not what my party stands for. It’s time for True Labour, not Blue Labour | Stella Creasy We must get back to the party’s roots before it is too late. That means embracing difference, rejecting division – and f

@stellacreasy.bsky.social: "When we ask ourselves what is holding Britain back from being more productive, it is not immigrants or women who don’t have enough babies – whatever the claims of the right. Instead, tackling the cost of living crisis and confronting division should be our priorities."

There are a lot of posts out there with the close-up visual of Markwayne Mullin on January 6, but this is a better perspective.

He’s not protecting others; he’s protecting himself and hiding. You can see plenty of people at the entry door, ready to take on the insurrectionists, but not Markwayne.

GB News should be treated in the same way as Russia Today. It is a malign propaganda conduit and should be taken off air.

This isn’t a hallucination, Michael Gove. You’ve never explained the millions you disbursed to buddies with your crony Covid Contracts.

Cashing in on the worst public health crisis in a century should disbar people from public life permanently.

NYC mayor not banned from UK – Full Fact A series of videos shared on social media falsely claim that Zohran Mamdani said the UK has β€œlost its moral compass”, prompting Keir Starmer to ban him from the UK.

Videos shared online falsely claim Keir Starmer banned New York mayor Zohran Mamdani from the UK, after Mr Mamdani supposedly said the UK had β€œlost its moral compass” at an event they both attended.

But no such event happened, and he hasn’t been banned.

J.D. Vance is no different. This is a terrible take. He never had different ideas. Every Republican is exactly the same. They want America dumb and poor so they can be easily controlled workers for wealthy Republican donors.

Interesting from a Boris Depiffel Johnson whose core piffle is his coruscating inability to understand or accept why he lost his position.

Which makes our current expenditure and preoccupstion with AI *completely* *redundant*. It's merely a pointless distraction, and that most certainly won't save civilisation

Efforts should be focused on mitigating the climate damage, which I emphasise is inevitable and will otherwise be devastating.
