"When we ask people whether #Brexit has been a success or a failure, 62% to 11% say failure. And that really rockets up - when you ask people who did vote Labour last year and people who are still intending to vote Labour - that figure goes north of 85%." ~AA @pimlicat.bsky.social

It should
Donald Trump has made it his explicit policy to interfere in European politics and ‘cultivate resistance’ in the UK and elsewhere.

The government should include the US administration in the scope of its investigation.

I have to say the segment of former MAGAs crying about the economy and angry at Trump did not fill me with the amount of compassion it probably should have. 😂

I’m sorry, but it is disgraceful to be an academic who uses this technology to conduct research. It should be prohibited in all of our scholarly institutions, including universities and journals.

That reminds me of an old story. Sometime during the inter-war years there was a friendly fencing tournament between the Spanish national team and the Hungarian national team. At the reception on the night before, the competitors introduced themselves to each

How much Twitter do you have to snort to convince yourself that sexual violence is exclusively a foreign cultural import, or that education to combat it shouldn't begin until the people you're trying to reach are old enough to be perpetrators?
Dog-whistle and factually incorrect. Ladies, raise your hand if you were sexually assaulted by a boy at school? I’d wager this or a family member is most women’s first experience of sexual violence

Anyone who supports this is an embarrassment. "Instead of typing it out they'll generate their idea"? Are you insane?

With the majority of Americans getting their news through social media, and most social media users following only news about their interests, I wonder how many even know we’re on the verge of war. As to why we’re about to go to war, nothing remotely credible has been put forth by the Trump admin.
I still can't believe they're trying to make a war happen out of thin air. Not just their abrogation of Congress's role in formally declaring a war -- that's been a slippery slope for decades -- but their total unwillingness even to go through the motions of drumming up public support.
