If you read one thing today, make it The Bear’s withering dismantling of Reform UK’s “budget” with the precision of someone who understands numbers… unlike the people who wrote it. A a masterclass in calm annihilation that's ruthlessly savage. 🔥

The truth behind Reform UK’s reckless budget
£25bn of imagined savings, real-world cruelty and mathematics that should come with a trigger warning

I remember, as an Asian, being set upon by a large group of white youths. But it was in a kind and funny way and not at all hurtful. We parted laughing and joking at my bruises. I miss those good times. I'm with Nige on this one.

This is one of the most damning videos I’ve ever watched of Farage.

He essentially admits being racist at school - only says he didn’t do it “with intent”.

The quiver in his voice at the end - he knows he can’t squirm out of this one.
“I would never ever do it in a hurtful or insulting way”

Nigel Farage responds to allegations of racist behaviour from when he was a teenager at school

As we learn of Trump’s ‘peace plan’ for Ukraine…

I would just like to remind you of this part of the Epstein emails that we read about last week:

“Ask him if Putin has the photos of Trump blowing Bubba”

I’ll just leave that with you.

An really important thing a lot of people don't realize about Trump is that he doesn't bully people he doesn't think he can bully.
Let’s be clear.

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social got Trump so charmed that Trump posted two photos of the two of them with Franklin Roosevelt’s portrait behind them AND one of just Mamdani and FDR’s portrait.

The #NathanGill bribery case is one of the clearest documented instances where money, messaging and political access intersect in a way that can be traced from a European politician back to figures in Medvedchuk’s and Medvedev’s circles - and thus to Putin

The Nuremberg trials established:
1 Obeying orders does not absolve individuals of their responsibility for war crimes
2 Moral agency doesn’t disappear under a military hierarchy
3 Coercion must be extreme to excuse actions

An illegal order is no order

Obedience is not an excuse for atrocity

It is worth noting that yesterday was the 80th anniversary of the Nürnberg trials, in which the United States and its allies tried and ultimately convicted war criminals. Those were the times.

I hear the building is still available.

Newmarket MP Matt Hancock gave a £37bn Covid testing contract to Jockey Club director Dido Harding, who subcontracted it to Grand National sponsor Randox, employer of Tory MP Owen Paterson, whose late wife chaired Aintree racecourse. That's how the Tories handled the pandemic.

Farage can now be easily boxed in to a corner where his only ‘defence’ becomes: “Yes I spouted Kremlin propaganda & Putin worship but, unlike Nathan Gill, I didn’t need bribes to do it.”
It is, once again, a question of whether interviewers have the temerity to shut down his whining obfuscations.

This is vital context to Zia Yusuf's attacks on @zackpolanski.bsky.social.

Few people have paid attention to how Yusuf made his millions.

He sold "ultimate luxuries" to the mega rich.

Yusuf is desperately trying to torpedo the idea that him and his mates should be taxed.
Before Reform, Zia Yusuf was a digital butler to the super rich
How Yusuf made his money...

One of the most nauseating parts of right-wing discourse over the past few years has been their insistence that lockdowns a scam.

The Covid inquiry says that 23k people died because we locked down one week too late. God knows how many more would’ve died if the herd immunity crowd had got their way
