“Imagine a room awash in gasoline, and there are two implacable enemies in that room. One of them has nine thousand matches. The other has seven thousand matches. Each of them is concerned about who's ahead, who's stronger. Well that's the kind of situation we are actually in.” — Carl Sagan
Scottish Labour Party at the door.
Like en masse.
Wife answered and said she is for Scottish independence etc and won’t vote UK Labour.
My main point is that they are the only party that knock on my door. There were 6 of them. SNP and others nowhere.
But then Labour must be v scared
What is difference between USA and Israel strikes on Iran and Russia strikes on Ukraine?
What we see here is Donald Trump, acting as he always does, as a global chaos generator.
The further we stand away from that, the better off we will be.
Well said @georgemonbiot.bsky.social 👏

Rubio: “Let me tell you, Iran is run by lunatics, religious fanatic lunatics.”
Why is she dressed like a fucking supervillain in a Despicable Me film?

Reform fury as someone else wins by Our By-election Editor Tim Shipsink The losing candidate in the Gorton and Denton by-election, Matt Goodwhinge, has demanded an immediate re-run of the election on the grounds that he lost comprehensively to someone else. "It's totally unfair and rigged," said Goodwhinge. "I shouldn't be required to sit there and suck it up, just because I lost." Mr Goodwhine continued, *I can't believe that all those voters I demonised failed to back me. Especially after I was endorsed by Tommy Robinson and ten million Russian bots on X. "We have clear evidence of family voting, where people voted in order for me to stop deporting their families." Mr Badloser concluded. "I'm the victim of colour prejudice. They didn't vote for me simply because I'm not green." Reform leader Mr Farage, speaking from a sun lounger on a rock near the Chagos Islands said, "It's a tragedy that the people of Manchester won't see Matt in Westminster, but my constituents don't see me in Clacton either."

Beautiful from Private Eye on the massive toddler-tantrum that Matt Goodwin and Reform are having, because they got whooped in Gorton and Denton.
FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?
Big money has bought British politics
75% of Reform’s money has come from three rich white men

If I was @zackpolanski.bsky.social, I would be pointing out to the BBC that whatever model they use to justify giving Farage & his boot-lickers season tickets for every BBC show under the sun must surely now treat Green Party politicians in exactly the same way. Might even be one for the lawyers...
This joke isn’t funny anymore
"We called London a war zone and moved to Dubai by mistake"
I see the papers which screamed ‘tAKe bACK ConTRol’ now want the UK to be nothing but an obedient servant of the USA
This has been on the front page of the BBC Scotland website all morning. It talks about “eight years after the referendum”. The latter was in 2014. A child could do the arithmetic better!
Trump is insane
Putin couldn’t do a better job destroying the West.
Can’t wait to see how Trump ‘sells’ impact of his illegal war to Americans as everything goes up in price and stock markets fall.
Shambles
Free drapes for all?
Kafka understood that an even greater indignity than being turned into a giant insect was still being required to go to work afterward.
Trumps Illegal war will make everyone poorer apart from the super rich obvs.
Honestly the collective national level of disdain for Brits living in Dubai on all my social media platforms today really is bringing the UK together as one in a way that's hard to achieve in the modern era.
Starmer's ability to find the exact sweetspot which pisses off everyone is extraordinary. He's a savant.

Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch. Bye bye.
If Anas Sarwar has been told not to commentate on UK politics, how exactly does he expect us to believe he'll function as a First Minister? Westminster will make some awful policy decision and the FM will go - "I'm not allowed to talk about that."
