I invented unsocial networking. Soon, we'll all be doing it! I also like tea. I have never been in a quiz team with @RevRichardColes

Nigel Farage has spent £1m taking out adverts in the papers to distract from the Nathan Gill Russian bribe scandal.

We can't let him buy himself out of this. We need an investigation into Russian influence in our politics.

Over the last couple days I became super interested in the question of what’s actually in a model’s giant array of weights. The gigabytes of floating point numbers that power LLMs. Do we know what’s happening in there?

Turns out we do, for some simple things!

'Liz Truss' is the to Tories what Liam Byrne's "there is no money" note was to Labour, and they should carry on using her in that way. And link that to Farage's "the best budget since Thatcher" tweet.

Just RT this, as #BBCNews seems to think it's suddenly a big thing, having barely mentioned it the past 5 years.
Feels slightly disingenuous to say Reeves has "chosen to freeze the personal tax allowance until 2031" when the previous governments had already frozen it since 2021, and had announced a freeze until 2028. This further extends it, which isn't good, but this has been going on for the last 5 years.

Please, please, please, stop dicking around with live electrics* as it only results in bangs, scares, and smells.
Stop it. Stop it. Stop it.

I think, given the build-up, and the OBR fiasco, Reeves has done a decent presentation here. Not ruffled, nor wobbly like last time.

Political 'journalists' no longer report on the facts and truth.

They share gossip and speculation.

And when the facts are know they move on to the next round of speculation and gossip.

I can guarantee you before the end of today, many in the media will be speculating about the next Budget!

"Just a couple of hours until the chancellor unveils details of the budget..."
Not only has this 24x7 speculation been going on for weeks, but it's not being unveiled at 10:30 in the morning!!!!

Farage's words are being misconstrued, because his words are hard to make out - being muffled by the big, white, pointy, hat he's wearing.

More 'credible actions for a US president' stuff.
"the judge ruled that the appointment of Lindsey Halligan as interim US Attorney was unlawful - Halligan is Donald Trump's former personal lawyer and has no prosecutorial experience"

Wonder why Trump appointed her?
