Reform is tipped to win next week in Caerphilly, a bellwether election because Reform is coming for Wales first, then the UK. Yet close to zero scrutiny of the candidate, Llyr Powell’s relationship with his former boss & friend, Nathan Gill. Why? Please read on & share 1/

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

Here it is. The UK digital slavery deal in which we invite the worst companies on the planet to feast themselves on our national assets & compromise our national security. This isn’t just naive, it’s dangerous. We have just tied ourselves to a technofascist surveillance state.

Last week, the new owners of the Observer wrote to tell me they would *not* be issuing me with a new contract. So...I want to say publicly that it was an absolute privilege to speak on behalf of my Observer colleagues during our strike. I don't regret doing so. And I learned so much from it. 1/
