Hope the people of Gorton and Denton have checked with the people of Clacton to discover what it's like to have an attention-seeking, grifting, racist, misogynist, Trump-loving narcissist as their can't-be-arsed-about- anything-but-power MP.
A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.
Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
Auschwitz took time.
AHH no. What's he done now??
Fully agree.
It's a no win situation for Starmer. Everyone knows that Burnham is playing games, so might as well just put a stop to it, from his point of view.
It would also help if he pulled his finger out and performed much better!
I would respectfully suggest old Mel bear him by a few decades!
But nice to see I'm so far removed from Musk these days that I totally missed this. Nice catch!
For anyone who hasn't seen it
Reminds me of the Mel Brooks musical.

Just a little piece of Poland, a little piece of..."

[Scene is the entrance cabin to a NATIONAL TRUST PROPERTY AND GARDENS] 1 NATIONAL TRUST EMPLOYEE [inside cabin]: Hello there 2 [A young family - two parents two kids - have arrived at the front desk]. DAD: Hi - do you have an activity trail, for the kids? 3 NT EMPLOYEE: Of course β youβre just in time for the Autumn Gammon Trail! 4 MUM: That sounds fun, doesnβt it kids? 5 NT EMPLOYEE [handing an activity sheet and pencils to the kids]: Every autumn, the Reform Trust gammons flock back to the National Trust for the AGM. Just follow the trail round the grounds, and see how many you can spot! 6 NT EMPLOYEE [hearing something in the gardens]: Listen - that's their call [Calls emanating from the landscape]: tut-tut woke-woke 7 NT EMPLOYEE [showing the family an apparently empty fenced enclosure with some bushes in]: They are extremely sensitive and fragile... But you can bring them out of hiding if you put a little sign down mentioning slavery. 8 KIDS [pointing]: There they are! [Some little red faced PEOPLE wearing Barbour jackets and gilets emerge cautiously from the bushes. They are creeping towards a TINY SIGN in the middle of the enclosure]. [Little people noises]: woke-woke tut-tut woke-woke 9 [Close-up of the TINY SIGN - we can read that it says]: Slavery had a bit to do with building this massive house. [Noises from the little people again as they inspect the tiny sign]: tut-tut woke-woke 10 MUM [pointing]: What's that one doing there? NT EMPLOYEE: Oh, that's so sweetβ¦ 11 [We see that one of the people is sat on a rock, with a little laptop open on a tree stump, and they are furiously typing away]. NT EMPLOYEE: I think he's writing a column for the Daily Telegraphβ¦ 12 [We see close up to the little personβs screen, it is a word document reading]: Are National Trust scones secretly WOKE? [ends]
If you're a National Trust member, it's that time of year again: Midnight tonight is the deadline. It's a shame people have to keep doing this to keep a toehold on historical truth in this country, but here we are. Voting link: www.nationaltrust.org.uk/who-we-are/a...
This went live last night - a big PDF bundle of the books I've written at Image. Includes The Wicked + the Divine, DIE, Phonogram, Ludocrats, the first Power Fantasy, We called them giants, etc. Basically, this is the stuff I got into comics to do, and a great chance to grab it.
after careful study, I believe only people born between 1975 and 1995 should be allowed to use the internet
Hey hey, it's time for the second and final part of Karl Marx. The struggle to write Capital and why it mattered. Bust-ups with Bakunin. Fame at last. His disastrous finances. And the fight to define Marxism after his death. We do the reading so you don't have to.
I often get the 'Cider Express' out west to get home.
Canned G&T sounds positively civilised compared to the zoo-on-rails you get from 7pm onwards!
Don't get me started on using the plugs either.
That's a large dose of social awkwardness as you slide down while making eye contact with the person opposite. You don't need that on a morning commute.
It's the worst. They are mad lads.
You're basically inviting 2-3 other people to come sit down and make you feel very uncomfortable, while awkwardly having to move your bag and huffing about it.
You are choosing violence. Airline window seats all the way.
It is possible to cherish the BBC as an institution while also saying that BBC News is failing very badly, day after day, in its duty to inform and that it always fails in a right-wing direction. It desperately needs to recover its integrity
Hell of an innings. Sad needs though - feels like the end of an era.
For what it's worth I've very much enjoyed you as host and an also a backer of both OGWIN and Origin Story.
Here's hoping you are going on to even bigger things!
I really despair. This is so, so awful.
*which.
Still getting the typos after all these years! π€£

Lou. No.
What a finish! Well done England! Now the Men need to step up! #England #ENGSPA #Euros #Champions
An AI slop factory apparently tried to rewrite our article about AI not replacing workers en masse, but hit the paywall... so just summarised the paywall. If this is the robot that takes my job I'll be v embarrassed

1. The person who wrote this headline has never set foot in a mental health institution.
2. Talking to a mirror is great for practicing speeches.
3. No, habibi, humans need food, shelter, potable water, exercise, medicine, warmth, and the presence of Dolly Parton in this world, not arguments.
Amazing shoes!
Slurp is worse than both.
