Mehdi, you were a middle aged man having spent decades in the UK, and having gone to Oxbridge and worked in the higher levels of UK media, when you were recorded describing non-Muslims as "kafirs" & "animals" in a gathering of Muslims. I would not call others bigoted.

Take a moment today to think about the courage of Joshua Wong.
A young activist who’s only crime is defending the liberty of others in Hong Kong.
Today for his courage he’s been punished with 10 years in prison by the Chinese Communist Party.
He could have run. He could have lived in exile. He chose courage.

Turns out the Labour government is baffled by the fact that Poundland, a company that sells high volume goods at rock bottom prices with very thin margins, might go bankrupt after they’ve continually increased their labour costs
That’s astoundingly cretinous

Nothing highlights the fiscal failure of this government more starkly than the plight of Poundland. The chain's 600 stores and 12,000 workers sit on the verge of collapse, not because its customers have walked away - Poundland's sales grew by 6.7% in September - but because of this government's unaffordable tax rises, which makes it impossible to run a business that works on slim profit margins to keep its prices down for its customers. How ironic that a government preaching about helping the least well-off is forcing a company out of business that does just that.

Just shy of £23,000 pounds separating those on the minimum wage and those now in the higher tax bracket. This is completely unsustainable, the squeeze on middle earners and the pressure this places on employers is nothing short of a scandal.

I hate it. I hate it every time I see a woman trade in her distinct beauty for the same cookie cutter inhuman bullshit as everyone else. It's sickening watching every unique feature be annihilated and a stunning woman be turned into a cheap plastic knockoff of herself.

The vile comments on this post offer a snapshot of what Jewish people face daily. I’m not Jewish, but I’ve had a torrent of abuse since calling out antisemitism in schools. It’s not acceptable and these people are gross.

Always happy to rebut mendacious anti-semitic activism

We got a furious response from the former Conservative minister Lord Michael Gove when we asked about his position on Israel at the Labour Conference.
Gove claimed he knew more about antisemitism than Zack Polanski, the only Jewish leader of a major political party in the UK. He also accused us of not being journalists and of an obsession with Israel, despite the Labour government's change in position on the occupation of Palestine being the key topic at this year's conference.
Gove now sits in the House of Lords and is editor of right-wing magazine The Spectator.

This is appalling by the @TheEconomist: it's saying to those woman and girls who have been sexually assaulted 'calm down, don't get hysterical, it's not an epidemic. It's all fine'.
A hard look at Britain’s data suggests so. But it is hardly an epidemic economist.com/britain/2026/1…

Something I’ve noticed about “femosphere” podcasts is that literally all they talk about is men and relationships.
Joe Rogan, the biggest male coded podcast, is known for talking about drugs and wild animals and random shit-talk with the odd bit of spicy political stuff.
Women are ingesting absolute poison on a level equivalent with the very worst of the “Manosphere” and the asymmetry in the way each is received in polite society is so vast to be a chasm.

It's subtle, but with a trained eye, you can detect a slight difference between the way that The New York Times Editorial Board is treating the accusations against Ilhan Nur Said Elmi (aka Ilhan Omar) and the way they treated the accusations against Donald Trump.

There's no incentive to leave if California's net wealth tax is a one-off, says advocate @gabriel_zucman, author of an annual *global* wealth tax proposal & whose own paper on California's said "if Proposition 40 passes...it could encourage...a permanent annual wealth tax."
