Yes. You can have as many qualms on her behaviour or her ideological leanings as you like, but that is a third order issue here, first order is the dictatorship, second order is the clown show in the Oval Office demanding she degrade herself.
Genuinely, guys, I'm not going to be too harsh on a woman whose had to flee her country and is desprately trying to find any way to get the world's most powerful state to remove the brutal dictatorship that runs it.

1/4 I had no idea this controversy about Tit Hall was in part to do with Classics
I should probably write something on this, given I did the four year Classics course at Cambridge (basically an access Classics course that allowed people who hadn’t been to private school study Latin and Greek)

To be honest if Netflix made a six part series about Jenrick and Polanski trying to run a political party, I would watch it.
Series two could be Sultana and Corbyn.

then, the transphobes , feeling victorious at how many people they have made unhappy and despairing in the previous week, move on to anything else that has a spectrum and the possibility of more colours than they can conceive - such hateful people - they cannot understand anything that is not THEM

The BBC is in crisis in the same way that GB News would be if you put Owen Jones on the board armed with a veto and plenty of coffee.

The voluntary cheapening of Newsnight — historically a space for investigative and explanatory journalism that was too big to fit in the bulletins but too small for Panorama — is also part of that story.

Folks, for too long in this country, we’ve struggled by with a Pentagon. Crooked Joe Biden thought we couldn’t top it. But tomorrow morning builders - great builders, special builders, some say the best builders in the world - start work to turn it into a Hexagon.

They recently merged with Three, so Vodafonethree probably *are*.
It's a shame Three didn't merge with Ee instead; they could have changed the name to Threeee.

Social media bubbles: On Bluesky everyone believes he’s giving your allotments to Blackstone, on Twitter everyone believes he’s giving white people’s allotments to black people, and on Facebook everyone believes this heartwarming AI video of a six legged puppy cavorting with a dying Ozzy Osborne
No idea why the internet is getting so aerated about Labour's supposed plans to get rid of allotments as they're not going to be much use after Starmer has geoengineered the blocking out of the sun.

It's often overlooked that Reform's current electoral position is considerably worse than Corbyn's was in 2019.
The fact that the mainstream parties have utterly collapsed is helping hide the weakness of Reform as a main opposition party. 27% of the vote is Michael Foot in 1983 territory!

Reform: opinion poll lead is well below what a successful UK opposition party needs, its leader trails badly on “do you actually want this guy in Downing Street tho?”
Labour: leader hated, on c23 per cent
Conservatives: need I say more?
