Musk’s absurd poll on the racist and reactionary Trump is the last straw. I have opened a Mastodon account <@nextwavef> and will be working to make the most of Mastodon. I’m not going to delete this account yet, but I will in time. My Mastodon server is <https://t.co/iZrCnYgNbV>.

Green Party: “Israel should stop committing genocide”

British Journalists: “You vile racist antisemites!”

Reform: “we are going to open concentration camps for migrants”

British Journalists: “This is a bold new policy from the latest disruptive force in British politics.”

The Parliamentary Labour Party is still in the denial stage regarding its forthcoming liquidation. The irony is that because McSweeney and Starmer set it up to be impervious to democratic challenge it cannot process the feedback on even existential danger. https://t.co/RWotdAxyXo

He wrote this for THE DAILY MAIL.

The newspaper is a racist cesspit which has spent decades whipping up hatred against minorities.

The absolute front of these people!

Resurrecting Tony Blair from the political dead would be political suicide for the Starmer Govt. Particularly after the resurrection & fall of Mandelson. It would confirm the dearth of ideas & strategy in the Starmer Govt & how beholden it is to New Labour.

Shame that #safc wasn’t able to play this Villa team.

@GoalPulseX Relegation fight? At 46 points? Have you looked at the table?

Marking May Day at the Salut Folk site by celebrating Ed Pickford’s classic The Workers’ Song,

The first ones in line for that pie in the sky…”

@Spursawy23 @totnumjoe @BrianBrobbey6 Racist b*stard. Please delete this post.

[Andrew Curry @nextwavefutures]

Guessing that Newcastle have used six substitutes because one was a head injury replacement? #safc

[Andrew Curry @nextwavefutures]

@CharliePMullan Just fouls on Brobbey, I think.

[Andrew Curry @nextwavefutures]

@Michaelsafc10 You can see he slips slightly as he’s about to kick it. Just support the team and the players.

@WYDITS Who’s is the £380m squad? The Sunderland team cost about £130m to assemble.

[Deirdre Heenan @deirdreheenan]

An indignant Laura Kuenssberg asks Communities Secretary Steve Reed.

"why would Israel say something that is not true."

Give me strength, where do you even start with this?

@petrucehan @Amy_Siskind Yes, but a lot cheaper to course correct then.

[Tim Walker @ThatTimWalker]

Why isn’t a newspaper south of the border willing to spell out what the overwhelming majority of us want?

[Andrew Curry @nextwavefutures]

@Ian_Crow3 @FA_PGMOL And if players think they’re going to get away with it because of referees not being competent on field and VAR not intervening, they’re going to keep doing it, and the game will get worse.

[Andrew Curry @nextwavefutures]

@Ian_Crow3 @FA_PGMOL Player runs through the back of an opposing player, leading with his elbow. That is not “normal contact”. VAR seems to be being used as a heatshield to protect referees who don’t want to referee what’s happening in front of them.

If only there was some sort of club we could join that would make this stuff easier for all products across the whole of Europe. 🤯

Compulsory Competitive Tendering was first introduced in 1980 by Margaret Thatcher to prevent the U.K buying from its own nationalised industries.

The Conservative Gov’t that @ClaireCoutinho was a member of between 2019 & 2024 did NOTHING to change these procurement rules.
