Old guy with a beard. Unhealthy obsession with the state of democracy in the world. Teaches data visualisation. Talks on mental health. Publishes the Substack 'Untethered' about motivation, addiction and recovery. North Wales, UK.

The GOP is living in an Alice Though the Looking Glass world, but with normalised paedophilia.

As the woman says, this is a slide into authoritarianism. It benefits no one: not the concerned citizens who care about Gaza, not the police who would rather be doing better things, and not the government which looks like a bunch of clowns.

Just sitting on the pavement and clapping is now terrorism. Not saying anything, not holding or displaying any signs, just sitting on the pavement & clapping. Andy Burnham can stop this. But he isn't. Reporting by Steven Methven for @novaramedia.com

What is Andy Burnham going to do to get the UK government out of its Palestine Action omnishambles? A good first step might be to remove Yvette Cooper from government, as she was the idiot who caused the mess in the first place by proscribing PA instead of using criminal damage law.

NEW: Sir Jonathon Porritt, arrested under Terrorism law outside Westminster Magistrates Court. As police escorted him away he said "I am a supporter of Palestine Action, trying to save lives is not terrorism, exposing this Governments complicity in genocide is not terrorism." www.wedonotcomply.org

Google broke the law defined by the EU's Digital Markets Act and got issued with a fine for 890 Euros. Presumably Trump is angry because there is no Gianni Infantino he can call at the EU to get it overturned. Here is the whole story. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsUb...

The US has been abusing citizens of other countries in many ways including applying unjustified tariffs, starting a war with Iran and supporting Israel's massacre of civilians in Gaza. But the abuse of the judicial system in the UK is a new one. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Andy Burnham is an improvement on Keir Starmer, but the Greens are still needed. Burnham is weirdly ambivalent on some of the big issues: the EU, climate action (still considering allowing Rosebank and Jackdaw?) and action on Gaza. Polanski and the Greens' clarity on these issues is needed.

This is five years old but for old foodies like me this stuff makes me want to cook something simple but beautiful. And also actually to look up the St John restaurants next time I'm in London. www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3eJ...

Has Andrew Tate been spending his entire life fighting his desire to transition to a woman? - He admits that he doesn't like having sex with women. - He has a very small dick, by the look of his speedos. - He likes wearing silky things. Hmm... www.lowkickmma.com/wp-content/u...

I wish UK Ministers of Parliament who usually listen to Radio 4 and watch the BBC would make themselves aware of the danger of Musk's evil megaphone X. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fulv...

Aaaarghhh! My house and workplace has been taken over by plasterers playing pumpin' beats up the stairs! Seems like a good day to go to the beach and take pictures of fennel in flower.

Is there anyone who still doesn't believe that Trump is relentlessly undermining US democracy and won't stop until he meets real opposition? www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZj9...

In all the excitement about Andy Burnham's return, I had wondered whether Zack Polanski and the Greens would become irrelevant. Here's the answer. Polanski and the Greens are essential if we are to reach some kind of climate discipline in UK politics. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I'm not particularly interested in football (soccer) but I can see that it the outcome of a match can be influenced by a call from a powerful politician rather than the play on the field, there is no point in watching. Uefa and the UK FA need to leave Fifa. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

For all its flaws, it is nice to see that in the British parliament there is still humanity and respect for colleagues, whether or not they agree on policy. The demonisation of opposition leads to civil war, not progress. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVvF...

Politicians are not supposed to criticise the electorate, as Gordon Brown discovered with his 'bigot woman' comment. But if you are a racist, misogynist or homophobe, who are you most likely to vote for?

I used not to believe that there could be a large number of really evil people in powerful positions. I feel sad that Trump, Musk and their ilk have thoroughly changed my opinion on that.

She told Congress she knew nothing—never met the girls, never knew how old they were. The survivors say she's the one who told them to bring their school IDs. Read what they said. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/a-good-wee...
