He has just been arrested. So according to this ghoul’s own logic, we now know that there is no ‘two-tier policing’. He will, of course, continue to lie about it regardless. #FarageRiots

I've said it before and I'll say it again:

Tsundoku, from Japanese, is the act of buying yet another book that you fully intend to read, but never quite get round to.

PM is real threat, failing to name racism, undermining rule of law with terrible Rwanda Bill, trampling over rights to protest. This didn’t need “urgent address” he could’ve said it in Parliament. Fake theatre from desperate PM of a dying , discredited govt

The mask has really dropped now, if there were any doubt who the real extremists are, it is #Sunak's government - threatening to take visas off protesters and stirring up anti-Muslim hate.

Even before the wartime crackdown, you rarely saw as many people at an opposition event as at Navalny’s funeral procession. This day will be remembered. (Video via Meduza.)

This is Sarah and Gemma, Wendy’s daughters. Our mum died peacefully early this morning. She wrote a blog post before she died so you can read about it from her perspective.

BREAKING: Alexei Navalny, the Russian opposition leader who organized anti-government demonstrations and was a prominent critic of President Putin, has died in prison at the age of 47.

At first glance, this seems appalling and absurd. But there's a reason Rishi Sunak is backed into a corner and can't apologize. Here's why. 🧵

A humanitarian nightmare is engulfing the people of Gaza.

I invoked Article 99 of the @UN charter, because we are at a breaking point, with a high risk of the total collapse of the humanitarian support system in Gaza, with devastating consequences.

Hey @FootLockerEU - sorry to your social media team but I'm desperate. For a company worth billions, your chat bot service is appalling. I wish I'd read @Trustpilot before ordering from you. 6 messages to the help desk, all ignored. You have my money and I don't have my order.

Hey @FootLockerEU - you sent me an incorrect item. I contacted your help desk who apologised for sending the wrong size - not item - and to return for a refund. I want the item I've paid for. I've sent 3 messages but had no reply since the incorrect reply. Please advise

In 1978 there weren't many politicians who stood with the LGBTQ community. Dianne Feinstein tried to save her friend Harvey Milk's life and she remained a friend to our community forever after.
May she rest in peace and may her memory be a blessing to all who loved her. 🕊️

The hilarious story of how Michael Gambon auditioned for Laurence Olivier at the start of his career - as told in Antony Sher's book Year of the King.

RIP.

I returned to NYC from my house on Cape Cod less than a week after 9/11. The first thing I did when I got home was race downtown to see the fallen towers. Many of you know this story, but when I got there and raised my camera to my eyes, a police officer approached me, whapped me on my arm, and said, "No photos. It's a crime scene." I realized then that we'd have no historical record of this horrific event if pictures weren't allowed. I had studied a few historical archives at the Library of Congress in D.C., and I knew I had to be the one to create an archive of this seminal moment in my city's - our global - history. Over the next 9 months, I returned to Ground Zero, a.k.a, The Pile, daily (with a few travel exceptions), to photograph the wreckage, light, architecture, and the incredible group of people who were there to excavate, clean up, rake for remains, and help in any way possible. It was a community of remarkable people - a brother and sisterhood - of ironworkers, NYPD, FDNY, Captains, Chaplains, security workers, and politicians. I snuck in daily to photograph and got kicked out daily. It wasn't until I quite literally stumbled into a group of men from the Arson and Explosion Squad, who asked what an older guy like me with a big old camera was doing down there, that I found my way in without fear of being evicted. They all quickly believed in the importance of the photographic record I was attempting to make. They gave me their phone numbers and said to call them if I had any trouble, and they'd bring me back to the site. Eventually, I got an official mayoral badge that granted me easier access to the Pile. In the end, I made over 8,500 pictures. My focus was never on human remains. I wanted to capture the place, the light, the people. I owe so much of this experience and access to my band of brothers from the Arson and Explosion Squad. Here is merely a tiny selection of some of the pictures. Many can be seen, however, at the Museum of the City of N.Y., World Trade Center Memorial Museum, Smithsonian Museum of American History, Library of Congress, and about 500 in my book, Aftermath: World Trade Center Archive.

"Post-Covid ‘super deduction’ scheme introduced by Rishi Sunak when chancellor allowed water industry to claim £97 million in tax rebates.'

Yep you got that right. Water companies paid no tax but claimed £97 million in rebates.

Rent-a-Minister Grant Shapps embodies Government chaos. He’s held 5 different cabinet posts in past 12 months. Transport, Home, BEIS, Energy, and now Defence. This govt is a desperate scrambled cohort of failure & an election to get rid of the lot of them can’t come soon enough
