Ha ha, don't think so. Greens are ahead of/level with Labour in every other recent poll.

23 year old Ruben Ray Martinez’s last words? β€œI’m sorry sir”.

ICE shot him 3 times and killed him.

Renee Good’s last words? β€œIt’s ok I’m not mad”.

Alex Pretti’s last words? β€œAre you ok?”

These are the people DHS calls domestic terrorists. Threats. Aggressors.

Abolish ICE

Humanity heating planet faster than ever before, study finds Researchers identify sharp rise to about 0.35C every decade, after excluding natural fluctuations such as El NiΓ±o

It doesn’t matter whether the rate of global warming is increasing. It’ll never cease to amaze me that people don’t care that it’s happening at all. It should be the most alarming thing ever.

GB News loses Β£22m, taking their total losses to over Β£130m. Except it's not a 'loss', it's an investment by Paul Marshall in providing a propaganda service to platform right wing grifters, gobshites, conspiracy nutters and contrarian fuckwits.

What he means by "involved" is that he wants bribes and payment to back a particular faction like he did with Venezuelan oil, the proceeds of which are sitting in private bank accounts in the UAE.

There's no reason for Iran to attack NATO nation Turkeyβ€”but a drone did. Iran denies sending it.

There's no reason for Iran to attack a UK base in Cyprusβ€”but a drone did. Iran denies sending it.

Now Azerbaijan has been attacked. Iran denies involvement.

I think this is Israel.

But don't accept my explanationsβ€”use elementary-school logic. If Iran had fired these drones with intention, it'd be counter to that intention to subsequently deny doing it. It'd be *proud* to say it did it.

And there'd be evidence the drones were fired *from Iran*. There isn't.

And as someone who closely monitors both websites I can assure you that X is a right wing radicalization pipeline, including for people who consider themselves smart and progressive, while Bluesky is just an overwhelming left leaning platform. Those are very different things.

A small girl wearing a rabbit costume and blue coat carries a book as she walks to school. 

Her mother (head out of shot) wheels her baby brother along in a pushchair. 

The baby says "Peter Rabbit may be the 'Hero' of the story, but surely the obedient, widowed Mrs Rabbit is a more effective symbol of the oppression inherent within Mister McGregor's regime"

The girls looks furious and snaps "Mum!! He's critiquing my world book day costume from a marxist perspective again!"

Media’s pro-Western bias is often blatant, sometimes subtle but always omnipresent.
Below is an example of the latter.

Does state repression of peaceful climate protest scare people off from engaging in activism, or does it galvanise them into doing more?

A tweet from the Daily Mail with a headline saying "Four biblical signs the world has entered the end of days as US bombs Iran

This perfectly illustrates my point that the British tabloids are aiming at a US audience. There like 5 people in the UK who think about this. But it is huge among US evangelicals.

British politicians need to ignore UK tabloids, as UK tabloids are talking to an audience in the US for clicks.

β€˜I can’t digest it’: deadliest attack on Israel since war began kills nine and destroys synagogue Fear and grief mix in the small town of Beit Shemesh, where missile struck ageing bomb shelter under synagogue

www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

Dear Guardian, if you humanise these victims of war (by the way, which war?) why not humanise the 100 schoolgirls killed in an Israeli-US airstrike? Or the thousands of Gazans now starving to death because there's a new Israeli blockade?

My tip to make washing machines last years longer is to fix them in a space so tightly that they can't vibrate when spinning. It's the vibration that loosens parts and shortens the lifespan.
