Oh look. There really are "no go areas" in England.

And they're marked by St George's flags

The Northern Lights might well be visible in the early hours of Wednesday or on Wednesday night in the UK, with the best chance being across the northern half of the UK, although some opportunity will exist in the south. If you see the Aurora Borealis, please share pictures!

If you still support Trump, I don’t judge you for your choice of political party.

I judge you for your lack of morals, ethics, compassion & humanity.

I judge you for your support of racism, misogyny, pedophilia, homophobia, treason & fascism.

So will others. So will history.

"Those who launched the latest attack on the BBC have close ties to the MAGA movement, from Friends of Trump like Farage and former Tory Prime Minister Boris Johnson to others with links to the US Christian Nationalist organisation the Heritage Foundation."

The BBC fiasco shows a core left–right difference, the left long criticised its bias but defends its core principles when unfairly attacked.
The right, having shaped its bias by installing their own, now gleefully throw it under the bus, amplify foreign attacks, and call for its destruction.

The BBC's senior leadership resigning en masse over one dodgy edit in one programme, simply because the right wing press demands it, tells you everything you need to know about where the power really lies in that relationship

Great interview with Andrew Lownie about his book on the former Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson & the reaction to it by the palace. With a mention of the @fpalondon.bsky.social! We invited him for a press briefing in September when the UK media still tried to ignore the book.
Andrew Lownie wrote an explosive book about Prince Andrew

Then came the backlash.

Legal threats. Journalists were told they’d lose Palace access if they spoke to him

Anonymous social media accounts accused Lownie of visiting sex workers.

The BBC’s week from hell might look like accountability - but there is more than a whiff of orchestration about it all.

When the Telegraph cheers and Trump claps, you have to ask yourself:

Who, exactly, benefits when the Beeb bleeds?
The Beeb Bleeds, the Telegraph Cheers, and Trump Claps From the Balcony
The people who always hated public broadcasting finally smell blood - and the BBC seems too tired and compromised to fight back.

Rather than global cooperation on preventing people seeking asylum, there needs to be global cooperation on ensuring they can do so safely if we are to avoid further tragic loss of life. There's no question Rohinga Muslims need asylum. It's a question of how they get it.

Every single time Labour behave more like Reform, it helps Reform.

They will have plenty of time to reflect on their car crash level stupidity after they've been obliterated at the 2029 GE.

Unfortunately, all the rest of us will be left facing the consequences.
