Incredibly brave. Imagine the faceless bores the BBC will have making their programmes if they continue down this path.

Incredibly brave. Imagine the faceless bores the BBC will have making their programmes if they continue down this path.
1. Some good news at last. This week’s column is about the amazing thing a couple of us stumbled into three years ago, which we’ve now developed into a global research programme. It doesn’t change everything, of course, but it could help change quite a lot. + 🧵 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
The access crisis in NHS dentistry was made in Westminster.
Choices made at the Treasury mean practices are now delivering NHS care at a loss.
But no health professional can work this way.

'It’s almost poetic that the loudest voices now decrying Britain’s immigration numbers are the same ones who fought hardest for Brexit’

Rachel Reeves set to blame Nigel Farage for tax rises in the Budget, saying he delivered Brexit with “easy sloganeering” and then walked away
It’s about time

Farage is saying all teachers are Marxists. They're not. They just teach that we should care for one another. But that offends his fascist instincts. The result is he is turning on a profession that teaches about compassion and empathy - because he loathes it. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/10...
I could watch Zack Polanski utterly wreck Zia Yusuf ALL DAY LONG.
The Greens requested an interview on the Laura Kuenssberg Show with Zack Polanski when he was elected leader, but were denied, with a promise to interview him during Green conference instead.
This was then scrapped citing the Manchester synagogue attack. Polanski is both Jewish and from Manchester
We flounced out of the EU on the say-so of politicians who lied to us. And what a total shitshow that’s turned out to be. The polar opposite of what they promised. Now the call to flounce out of the ECHR. By the same people. Telling the same lies. Has the country been kicked in the head by a horse?
Well, there's a thing.
New research from Oxford University says that misleading media coverage is shaping UK public debate on immigration, human rights and the European Convention on Human Rights #ECHR👇

Brexit - championed by Farage - has been a significant factor in many of the UK’s problems - it’s time UK news shows and Labour started pointing that out

Public sector budget cuts implemented by the Tory government and impacting Sure Start and CAMHS for example, resulted in the decline in support for vulnerable children and families with little consideration of any "laudable desire to ensure young people are happy and well-supported" Mr Hunt.

The ever-eloquent @rafaelbehr.bsky.social pointedly refusing to mince his words on what Farage has done for us. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Reform UK, which has a grand total of four MPs, was just given an uninterrupted platform for an hour and a half on the BBC and Sky News channels, in order to talk about its plans for mass deportations
When was the last time the Greens (with four MPs) or the Lib Dems (with 72) were given the same?
Two-faced Farage stokes fears that the UK is “going bust” due to a “brain drain” while pocketing £40,000 to deliver a keynote speech for Nomad Capitalist – an organsation that encourages people to flee the UK for global tax havens. goodlawproject.org/uk-brain-dra...
Clive Myrie, "Why is Netanyahu planning to occupy Gaza?"
Lyse Doucet, "Is it to save his government from collapse as so many have said for so long?"
This article…
… is, by a long way, the clearest account of the UK government’s complicity in Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza that I have ever read.
Please read and share.
It is political illiteracy to slash Special Educational Need support
It beggars belief that politicians see slashing budgets and restricting access to EHCPs as the answer to the SEND crisis

The Telegraph today carries a news story about someone paying £7.4 million for a handbag (Hello, Lady Bracknell!). And an opinion piece describing a wealth tax as a ‘moral abomination’. What a time to be alive.

Are Starmer and Reeves now going to make children with special needs pay to balance their books? www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/07...
And not questioned or clarified by the interviewee 🤦♀️
Why does the world still allow trophy hunting? We've done so much harm already. RT if you think there should be a worldwide ban on this barbaric practice.
Nature is amazing. Protect it.

That’s OUR message taking over London! 🤯
We’ve rolled out 365 ads across the city — 365 ad spaces that Big Food can’t touch now! 😎
They’re not backing down, so neither are we. It’s time for a #CommercialBreak! 👀
Labour is cutting disability benefits to balance Rachel Reeves’ budget, while handing billions in tax breaks to the rich. In this video I explain why this is morally bankrupt, and why Labour’s 70 MPs who backed down have failed the poorest.

For too many children school is a miserable experience. Why? Because we’ve still not learned that if the child doesn’t learn the way we teach, we need to start teaching the way they learn.
Thread: why we need to pay attention to children’s and young people’s mental health, *before* making major alterations to the benefits system. @yorkshirebylines.co.uk @bylinesnetwork.co.uk @researchdigest.bsky.social @bpsofficial.bsky.social
