Whether you agree with him or not, you can always rely on @IanDunt to eschew hypocrisy and say the unsayable. open.substack.com/pub/iandun…

You can criticise Starmer and Reeves for all sorts of things - insufficient honesty at the election, insufficient bravery now - but it is astonishing how comprehensively the last government ran the country into the fucking ground.

Looks like a newspaper owned by the Fourth Lord Rothermere, who inherited it from the Third Lord Rothermere, who inherited it from the Second Lord Rothermere, who inherited it from the First Lord Rothermere, is bitterly opposed to Labour's plans for inheritance tax

At some point perhaps the MSM should focus on whether this guy has some sort of mental condition that makes him a pathological liar on a level that no one else in our political history has ever approached, and that maybe this goes to whether he’d make a good president?

In 2022 alone, the Tories took over £62k in donations from Lubov Chernukhin. The wife of Putin’s ex finance minister. Post invasion, to be clear.
Weekly meetings with the PM and chancellor. No outage or headlines despite national security risks.
Why wasn’t THAT on the news?

A candidate for President of the United States posts that his opponent used “blow jobs” to further her career. Why isn’t he being asked about this? And how many ministers are going to support him in spite of it?

It's far nastier to paint over a children's Disney mural at an asylum seeker dentention centre than to take down a portrait of Thatcher at 10 Downing Street. Tell me I'm wrong.

You probably know the start of this Olympic story, but do you know how it finished?
This photo is of Eric Moussambani, aka 'Eric the Eel' from Equatorial Guinea, competing in the 100m Freestyle event at the Sydney 2000 Olympics, alone.
Why?

Now that prisoners - including some convicted of violent crimes - are being released early due to overcrowding, it is even more outrageous that peaceful climate protesters face jail. The Tories' authoritarian anti-protest laws must be repealed.

Everyone knows Labour are going to win the election, but if you’re feeling like there’s no point in voting as the outcome is a foregone conclusion, I’d like to draw your attention to something really radical that is on offer tomorrow: 1/8

I can categorically say I’ve never loathed a political party like I loathe this Tory party. I’ve never felt this angry about what a govt has done to our country. And never thought that a bunch of politicians deserved the total crushing defeat these Tories do.
How many agree?

Thinking about how it would be reported if the ex-president of a non-Western country was ruled immune from prosecution by a panel of judges he himself appointed

It’s revealing that she feels it’s entirely reasonable that a family should want to emigrate, simply for a better life. No war or persecution, just a lifestyle choice.
