Who needs mysterious Thai-based crypto-billionaires or convicted criminals called Posh George? You can support Team Binface by bunging me the cost of a trio of affordable croissants (£3) at https://t.co/F8x87pEplq. Or don’t. I love you either way.

Labour, Tories, Lib Dems and Greens: I demand you stand down in Clacton. I will be a unity candidate and pledge to build at least one affordable house.

Nigel Farage says he wants The People versus the Establishment. So be it.

Leave him to me.

It's publication day of Minority Rule, and I'm a little bit hungover!

It's been 3 years of writing, writing paralysis, and writing again, and sometimes it felt like I'd die of old age before getting this thing done. But it's FINISHED, it's available in SHOPS, and you can listen on AUDIOBOOK.

Three years ago today, Putin's tanks rolled into Ukraine, and Russian aircraft began bombing the country.

Trump is lying. Russia started the war, not Ukraine.

Putin is a dictator, not Zelensky.

One of the finest podcasts in memory, an analysis of Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness capping @dcsandbrook and @holland_tom horror show on King Leopold and the Congo. (I read Adam Hochschild’s book 30 years ago and still have nightmares) https://t.co/NGrT3d4hws

@AyoCaesar breaks down how the Left's misuse of identity politics can undermine its own goals.

The green economy grew by 10% in 2024 and generated £83bn. It’s time to stop backpedalling on the green stuff and hit the accelerator. The faster we decarbonise the faster we cut energy costs, create jobs and strengthen our economy.

@triclassified This is a great show, don't get me wrong, and yes, you do speak of a much greater, wider problem, but this episode in particular seems quite unbalanced, painting China as the boogeyman, when the impact of western tech company algorithmic influence is a far greater problem

[dragonsafari @dragonsafari76]

@triclassified It seems mad to me that you can pount the finger at Tik Tocs potential in creating cognitive cocoons as a potential future danger, but breeze over the clear FB and X that has already been weaponised to demonstrable effect with Brexit, Trump and the general rise of the far right?!

@joxxol @realgingerpirlo @holland_tom I'm not quite sure why you're including me in this post or what your point is exactly, but here's an interesting little tit bit to add to the story...

[dragonsafari @dragonsafari76]

@BDSixsmith @maitlis I would imagine this is posted in response to the criticism that Channel 4 received for having that over baked meringue crust on the show.

Couldn't be that simple, could it...?

[dragonsafari @dragonsafari76]

@joxxol @holland_tom Obviously, it's a complicated picture, but I'm not sure you can say gender and race didn't play a part. Right?

[Susie Dent @susie_dent]

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

[dragonsafari @dragonsafari76]

@joxxol @holland_tom Nah, I think his point about American racial prejudice and innate misogyny is pretty spot on. Sad but true

[dragonsafari @dragonsafari76]

@holland_tom Dominic was brilliant...some how, strangely reassuring to see him alongside the politico's whilst the dawning of a new age of terrifying uncertainty unfolded before our eyes
