Come for @therestpolitics.bsky.social's special podcast on the UK Govt reshuffle.
Stay for the superb reactions by @rory-stewart.bsky.social & @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social to Alastair's phone getting nuked with calls! 😂

I know how you feel, Alastair - Same happened to me as a political journo.
"The Rest Is Politics" video podcast screen grab on the 5th September 2025. Alastair Campbell is on the left with blue glass frames on and a white shirt, raising his finger to point to the Camera, looking quite surly over TV producers nuking his phone with calls to appear on their shows in relation to Angela Rayner's resignation as the UK Deputy Prime Minister. Rory Stewart is on the right of the screen in his Star Wars Han Solo style outfit, with a very amused "Fight me!" look on his face, grinning and squinting eyes, with fists raised in the "Guard" position. For the full podcast go to www.therestispolitics.com or search for "The Rest Is Politics" on YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts.

What can sport tell us about who we are as people? ⚽👀

@traceyholmes.bsky.social is speaking about her new book, "The Eye of the Dragonfly" tonight at Gleebooks & it's superb!

@alastaircampbell2.bsky.social, you need to get Tracey & her husband Stan Grant on "Leading". @therestpolitics.bsky.social

Hey @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social, it looks like @rory-stewart.bsky.social is happier to be in this @therestpolitics.bsky.social YouTube promo shot than you are! 😄

What's the backstory to you climbing this? Is Bungee-Jumping next, or is that being saved for @scaramucci.bsky.social & Katy Kay? 😁🤘
Rory Stewart & Alastair Campbell tied to the edge of a very tall building's exterior walkway. Both are wearing special harnesses, so they don't fall. Rory is in the foreground with his arms spread out wide, smiling. Alastair is behind & above him, while waving with one hand. Alastair's other hand is grasping the safety equipment & he's looking a bit scared. Both are in dark pants & jackets.

Democracy is DELICIOUS!

Whomever Aussies vote for today, local fundraising efforts and crafty signs like this are always a winner.

My Democracy Sausage was already demolished before this photo was taken. I might do my civic duty & buy another sausage... 👀

Credit where credit is due to the Sydney Morning Herald... 👏

"Darth Orange" to describe Trump and his foolish tariffs? Well... It does rhyme with "Daft Orange", I suppose.... 😏

There's something about that park... 😉

Oh? So you've got a Holden Commodore? 🤔
Yes, they are bogan cars... 🔥

Seriously though, I'd be super concerned about having anything in the back of that Deepal, as it looks like there's nothing solid to secure stuff with. Jam the brakes on, and everything in the back would come forward hard.

Well, this is a slightly humorous development...

Wall Street is in for a massive bruising today due to Trump's Tariffs... And who is ringing the NYSE's Opening Bell today?

Trump darling, Newsmax Inc... 👀 #Trump #Tariff #NYSE #WallSt

That moment when you're listening to Rory Stewart & @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social talk about UK budget shenanigans on @therestpolitics.bsky.social, and the audio completely cuts out & jumps to a Leading promo... 👀

1st half of the podcast is a cracker on Trump's Signal scandal too.

Seriously got to wonder when a few governments are going to start declaring Musk, Tesla, Twitter, Starlink etc persona non grata...

This level of craziness is dangerous.

One of the many reasons why I don't want a Tesla or like them. That Elon can instantly pull & transmit this information, which was apparently transmitted back in realtime to Tesla during everyday prior useage is bloody scary.
Elon Musk saying on Twitter that it wasn't an issue with the cybertruck, after Tesla pulled the data on the truck's settings and logs from the records it'd transmitted back to them while in use.
