So this is here now. This is why, going forward, you see a blue check tweeting inflammatory nonsense, you don’t engage. Don’t reply, don’t quote retweet, nothing. Block and move on. People now have a financial incentive to piss you off.

New post: The Farage-Coutts affair exemplifies the bankruptcy of UK media and politics https://t.co/szjlkyjP3k
Farage does not have some unique ability to capture headlines. Instead those choosing what will be headline news find it useful to amplify what he has to say.

Blocking the roads like this is completely unacceptable. They should lock up the people who did this and throw away the key.

Poor countries like Holland, Denmark, Germany....?
This looks like freedom to me.

Corrupt motherfucker.

Now that the Tories have gained the unswerving support of the fossil fuel industry expect massive undeclared in-kind support for their election campaign. You know, intensified social media targeting, fake accounts, fake economics, fake science... A Brexit re-run.

I did a google image search for men next to potholes and put them all in a montage.

Aside from the "banning holidays" guff, this is quite revealing of Sunak's thinking on the climate.

In short: no need to change our lifestyles, as "technology" will solve the problem.

Techno-utopianism: sloughing off the responsibilities of the present onto an imaginary future.

Carbon capture and storage has been promised for 20 years. It has never materialised and never will. Its sole purpose is to create the impression that oil and gas drilling is compatible with a habitable planet. Any politician promoting it is working for the fossil fuel industry.

What an amazing commencement address — 

"Look for the person who is cruel... Over my many years in politics and business, I have found one things to be universally true: the person who is the kindest in the room is often the smartest."

@R1chardatron Deffo a synth. I’d guess a D50, but wouldn’t bet my house on it 😀

The fact that people believed it was a good investment to spend huge amounts of money on a link to a picture of a pixilated monkey will never stop being one of the most funniest and stupid things ever.

One man can’t use a Coutts bank

Millions now using food banks

Which gets the most coverage?

Which gets most Govt intervention?

Which gets the speediest action?

This country is broken.
