Kemi Badenoch isn't the stupidest person to lead the Conservative Party but she should be very grateful Liz Truss exists.

If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it. All the stuff you didn't get taught in school!
David Olusoga's new series on Empire is excellent
So much better than the one by Paxman a few years ago
It's made me furious all over again that being educated in Bath I learned literally *nothing* about slavery

Frustrating in many ways tonight. Played some excellent stuff first half- but left some chances out there.
2nd half atrocious. Apparently Guessand was still on the pitch.

Disgusting behaviour by the Swiss fans. Hopefully, lots of arrests and the club thrown out.

The despicable and parlous state of Westminster politics is such that a Tory MP is one of the few in House of Commons speaking up for Palestinian rights.
TORY MP takes Cooper to task for ignoring Palestinian deaths and rights
Labour are so fucking lost that a TORY has just spoken up for Palestinian rights before any of their sorry lot did

I am so tired of these ghouls in parliament. Making tiresome, tiresome, badly recited jokes while making us poorer and the future bleaker.
Watch as Rachel Reeves brands Greens leader Zack Polanski a 'keen hypnotherapist'

Performative cruelty and pandering to those on a vile platform run by a neo-fascist billionaire.
Wowzers, I get stick for criticising this government.
Looks like they're only gearing up their far right fandom.

“The Motability scheme was set up to protect the most vulnerable. Not to subsidise the lease on a Mercedes Benz,” Reeves says.

So much of our politics revolves around catering to the emotions of people who become furious when someone else isn't suffering as much as they think they should
The restriction on car makes in Motability is a perfect and horrible example of Government By Vibes. it saves no money, it helps absolutely nobody, all it does is makes a few cruel and angry people feel better while disadvantaging people with mobility needs.

I've been chasing British Airways for nearly a year for 2 refunds they owed me, after they charged me 3 times for the same flight!
Finally, after threats and all sorts of nonsense, I got the money!
Never give up!

If you read the whole thread, it becomes even more sinister.
I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

If you're a gun lover, you're not on the left.
What do you do when you’re a gun-loving leftist who doesn’t fit into mainstream American gun culture?
