I’m not normally that person but….

It’s really annoying that Democracy for Sale a has hardly been credited anywhere in last 24 hours for breaking story of Labour Together paying to spy on journalists *almost two weeks* ago

Hadn’t expected Tory press office to be the exception!

We've got some Lydia and Lewis, Blind Dates in Minecraft (featuring some special contestants and an even more special mod), and romantic advice from some, erm...professionals. XOXO, see you there! 💕

Zack Polanski stood outside Palantir HQ to demand that the spy-tech firm - which has supported deadly ICE raids and enabled genocide in Gaza - gets out of our NHS

Say no to Palantir in the NHS ❌👇

I wrote about my experiences being sexually exploited as a child, and what we need to do to make sure AI doesn’t make that a reality for millions of children.

When the Scottish Government replaced PIP in 2022, it set out to do things differently.

Although the new benefit has the same criteria & is paid at the same rate, it was designed for “dignity, fairness and respect”.

I'm not sure Trump does say what he means. He rants incoherently one day and then delivers an incompatible, equally incoherent rant the next after being influenced by one person or another.

It'd be more accurate to say that a "say what you mean" style of politics is borrowed from e.g. Tony Benn.
"This is the new spirit of politics - say what you mean - and it's borrowed from Trump."

During his victory speech, Zohran Mamdani stuck the boot into defeated candidate Andrew Cuomo - even quoting his own father.
