The bleak problem is that to a man the British commentariat would fucking love to work for Palintir, with all the things normal people consider moral and ethical impediments actually being a huge bonus for them.

precedent set. i expect anyone wearing the poppy will have it digitally removed.
First they censored “Protect The Dolls”, now the BBC are censoring pride pin badges leicester.news/bbc-edits-out…

Should I panic buy lots of items so that Supermarket profits get a boost, which when combined with Black Friday and Christmas spending artificially inflates GDP in early 2027 thereby enabling the government and BBC News to announce "Good News on Growth" just as Fuel Bills go up?
Why should I stockpile and what will I need? bbc.in/4yESD4t

It really is fascinating how we construct what facts you’re allowed to be ignorant of, and those you are not. It’s central I think to understanding the operation of the media, the curation of the public conversation.
“I didn't know that.”
After defending Zionism, @MikeTappTweets is challenged by @ShehabKhan on Jewish people abroad being able to obtain Israeli citizenship while displaced Palestinians cannot return.

I texted my children that we got the puppy they’ve been begging me for and sent them a link with pictures. 🐶When they clicked on the link, it took them to a webpage that said YOU’RE GROUNDED. They’ll be spending the weekend retaking our family’s cybersecurity training course.

Perhaps the most stark and revealing (accidental?) admission in the David Bell 'antisemitism in UK schools report. Antisemitic attitudes aren't increasing, only anti-Israel ones are. That's what most of this is about.

This is absolutely insane.
The UK seems to have been involved in the kidnapping of Maduro - and the story spiked by an MOD D-Notice.
The kidnapping was the most brazen act of criminality, and UK involvement would almost certainly have been given with Starmer's sign-off. A wretched, wreck of a PM. An unforgivable assault on international law.

One of the weirdest things about British politics is that everyone on the right over the age of 35 somehow thinks they were alive for World War II

Hes selling it and it’s deeply embarrassing for all the leftist content creators who could do little more than complain about the optics.

i remember when words and concepts had meanings, when they might be arbitrary but still they had standard meaning… it was bad with neo-liberallsm but with illiberalism, neo-managerialism meaning has evaporated. Democracy means Genocide and so on…

Feeling unsafe as a British Jew and sitting down for a chinwag with the guy who kept a book by Holocaust denier David Irving on his shelf, for the publication that published the article "In Praise of the Wehrmacht".
Okie dokey.
Historian Simon Schama and Michael Gove discuss the resurgence of anti-Semitism in Britain, why British Jews increasingly feel unsafe, and what history can teach us about the war in Gaza.

We could be refurbishing and building houses. We could be developing technologies to improve the sector's productivity, and to enable the democratic co-design of places. But the money is being used to maintain the lifestyles of landlords. This should annoy us more than it does.
