The National Crime Agency report on serious and organised crime in 2024 points out the connection between gangs & crime and far-right ideologies and affiliations - essentially the dates given refer to riots after the Southport murders.

Absolutely hysterical piece on Greg Wallace from Caitlin Moran @mscaitlinmoran.bsky.social in the Times. The best piece of life advice I can give you is to go read it. Right now.

Peter Hesgeth, US defense sec, and Mike Waltz, nat security adviser, included The Atlantic's editor in chief @JeffreyGoldberg in a Signal group about plans to bomb Yemen (!!!). Besides the stupidly, & hoo-rah tone, here's what they think of European allies. Story: www.instagram.com/p/DHmhIzaB6dz

The Home Office decided RAF Scampton was a waste of money. So it wasted more money protecting it.

2 weeks ago I paid £5 to subscribe to "How to Survive the Broligarchy" by @carolecadwalla.bsky.social and I've only received one article. Other news outlets' daily newsletters are free. Should I expect more?

With "Over 62,000 subscribers", that's min £310,000 a year...! Come on Carole... be fair

On @BBCr4today just now, Matt Schlapp (chair of the American Conservative Union) said Zelenskyy should be "kicked out on his camo-clad butt". He also told Nick Robinson that he should learn history.

Under the Budapest Memorandum in 1994, Ukraine returned nuclear missiles - placed there by Russia - in exchange for security assurances that Russia would neither attack nor to threaten to attack Ukraine. 

That went well, then. You can trust Russia 100.

Is there no end to Israel's aggression, hubris and imperialism? They are currently in the process of occupying southern Syria. Whose are these "military forces and assets"? They didn't seem bothered when Syria was jammed full of Russian stuff. It's an outrage.

Gaza ceasefire deal at a standstill, negotiating phase 2 is already 3 weeks late. BN is a prince.

"As for Trump, he has said he is fine with whatever decision Netanyahu makes, whether to continue with the deal or return to war."
