@johncusack @BernieSanders We as a society clearly reject neoliberalism, but the media make us reject socialism in favour of far right ideology.

Meanwhile our prime minister and foreign secretary turned into jellyfish.

London mayor @SadiqKhan has issued a statement on the US election:

“I know that many Londoners will be anxious about the outcome of the US Presidential election. Many will be fearful about what it will mean for democracy and for women’s rights, or how the result impacts the situation in the Middle East or the fate of Ukraine. Others will be worried about the future of NATO or tackling the climate crisis.

"London is - and will always be - for everyone. We will always be pro-women, pro-diversity, pro-climate and pro-human rights.

"London is a place where we’re proud of our diversity, proud of the contribution of all our communities and proud of our spirit of unity. These are some of the values that will continue to bind us together as Londoners."

"The lesson of today is that progress is not inevitable. But asserting our progressive values is more important than ever - re-committing to building a world where racism and hatred is rejected, the fundamental rights of women and girls are upheld, and where we continue to tackle the crisis of climate change head on."

@nakamuramartin @GuyFawkesRetro Oh yeah if you’ve not had the OLED then it won’t matter. But for me it will feel like a bit of a downgrade.

[Chris @ChrisDSmi]

@nakamuramartin @GuyFawkesRetro Possibly but the OLED pops in a way that LCD just cannot. I watched my son play MGS the original on his LCD and looked worse than I remembered, then I played it on my OLED and it looked so much better, the colours just pop and the screen looks so clean and clear.
