For the love of god, why doesn’t someone at #Starbucks teach their staff how to make coffee?

This is like luke warm, brown water. #coffee

Today's breaking news.

#DailyTelegraph readers must have a very strange view of what's important in life.

The front of the Daily Telegraph website for 22 July 2025. Two royal stories, two about Rachel Reeves, one about Afghans 'tricking' the system and non-doms.

The grammar police have started arrested people for signs like the one I held on our last demo. It'll be an interesting test of the law, because "I support Palestine. Action is needed now" is an expression of opinion. It would make no sense without the full stop.

Watch as an activist is arrested in Glasgow for displaying a sign reading 'genocide in Palestine, time to take action'

'We're not terrorists', he said as he was taken away by police

Morrisons aren’t going to win any clear labelling awards here. Not surprisingly we thought this pack contains 100% British Butter. It’s such a cynical move.

Bear in mind that if you held up a sign saying "I support genocide", you would not be arrested under the Terrorism Act.

George Monbiot @georgemonbiot.bsky.social · Jul 5

Just received news that 27 people have been arrested in Parliament Square under the Terrorism Act 2000 for holding signs saying "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action".
This is real police state behaviour.

THE CRISIS OF AMERICAN LEADERSHIP REACHES AN EMPTY DESERT
In Chad, 3,500 Sudanese refugees arrive daily - fleeing violence in Darfur.
Many are hungry & dehydrated but aid cuts mean little awaits them.

Every book published in the United States is sent to the Library of Congress. Also, if you are under 16 you cannot use the reading room or order books.

Reporter: The president fired the Librarian of Congress. Why?

Leavitt: There were quite concerning things she had done at the Library of Congress in the pursuit of DEI and putting inappropriate books in the library for children.

He certainly didn't need to come to this Indian Restaurant on a cold, windy Thursday evening in March. He spoke about the attack at Westminster the day before, human rights, the future of the Labour Party, opportunity, deprivation, helping others and making a difference for the better."

However, when you hear a politician with conviction talk with passion about their party, the country and changing the world for the better, it's difficult not to be just a little optimistic.

Keir Starmer didn't need to become an MP - I'm sure it wasn't for the money.

Here's part of a post I wrote back in March 2017. I'm honestly not sure how I feel about it now...

"It's very easy to be cynical about politics and politicians, I've certainly been guilty of the that myself."
