BARBIE SPOILERS (?)

I think it’s very telling that right wingers saw a plot line about how men redefining themselves outside of patriarchy can and should be more fulfilling in terms of finding meaning than living shackled to it and their response was “it’s anti-men”

It’s Barbenheimer Eve.

How funny that now Margot is doing a film built for the ‘female gaze’ ie Barbie rather than the Male Gaze ie wolf of wall street… the sad little men-children are finding fault with her appearance. sad!!

First look at Hugh Grant as an Oompa Loompa in ‘WONKA’.

Confettigate: A Statement From Just Stop Oil

The lady who threw confetti in Bruton yesterday was upholding a tradition that is common across many cultures. We absolutely defend the right for people to throw confetti (of whatever colour) at weddings and other celebrations.

If it was a form of protest — which is yet to be established — we applaud it and thank the person concerned. It was peaceful and not especially disruptive, but got massive media attention for Just Stop Oil’s demand.

It has also helped people to recall that George Osborne, one of the main architects of economic austerity, is directly responsible for over 300,000 excess deaths, and that — as a newspaper editor — he was responsible for some of the most egregious climate-denying nonsense ever to darken the pages of mainstream mass media.

However, as much as we applaud the use of orange confetti at this wedding, we were not responsible.

Perhaps the press could focus on something more important now? Like the current government’s plans to licence over 100 new oil and gas projects, which will result in excess deaths the likes of which we have never seen. Or the fact that the UN Secretary General has said that ‘climate change is out of control’ as we’ve just seen the hottest average temperatures since records began. Or the fact that Canadian wildfires have now burned down an area the size of Portugal.

We are in catastrophically dangerous territory and the press have a moral responsibility to inform and educate people as to the causes of the crisis so that we can take action to defend ourselves. In 2023, it is simply criminal not to check your facts.

We live in a grotesquely unequal society that concentrates wealth, status & power in the hands of a few.

Real patriotism is about building a society that cares for each other and cares for all.

A Tory Prime Minister lying by saying the majority of grooming gangs are Pakistani.

A Tory Home Secretary blasting police for doing their job and dealing with a racist incident.

A Tory Councillor saying every white person should have a black slave.

All in the past 7 days.

I cannot imagine how miserable and bitter you have to be to complain about doctors fighting for a decent salary. The same doctors who are trained to save your life as well?

[Oli Dugmore @OliDugmore]

Cost of junior doctor pay restoration: £1bn

Things government happy to spend on:
Unusable PPE - £4bn
NHS Agency staff - £3bn

Bankers’ bonus cap lifted. Private sector wages increasing. Doctors?

Take your medicine.

Carly has been using her allotment to feed people struggling with the cost of living. Last night someone broke in and salted the land to stop her growing.
