It can be done @IpswichTown Class act that.

AOC: As far as AI, I, I do not regularly integrate it into my daily life, but I know many people do. For me, a lot of my job is writing-based, and I like to do my own. I’m old fashioned.

Awkward for the Blue Labour briefcases who assumed white working-class voters would be won over by flag-waving and performative cruelty to migrants.

NEW: Will Google's AI hype man kill the BBC? I've written about Matt Brittin because the coverage of his time at Google is shockingly naive. The BBC's next DG made his career as a yes man at a rapacious AI monopoly that preys on news journalism in order to destroy it. 1/

Absolutely not. That place is getting shuttered day one of any rational government

🚨 BREAKING: Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has officially called for President Trump's removal from office under the 25th Amendment!

Apologies for swearing. Wrong side of bed this morning and I've had it with the Thatcherites who respond to discussions on nationalisation with 'return to the 70s', 'inefficiency' etc. Instant block. These numbskulls are responsible for the decline of this nation's economy and its social consequences, which include some locales becoming virtually derelict. Return to the 70s is neither the intention nor is it possible. There's a lot of reading on the transition to a functional mixed economy - this is a good start. worldofbooks.com/en-gb/products…

@meadwaj It's a good initiative, but it is such an ugly word.

Thinktank @VerdantThinking launches today - our first report is in the Guardian: "A “Doge of the left,” could save up to £30bn a year for taxpayers by rooting out waste, fraud and tax avoidance, according to the first report from a new green thinktank.." (Link below...)

@LizWebsterSBF @ARNJ47 And why shouldn't public ownership keep a service up to date for the times it operates in? 🙄

@ARNJ47 “19th century infrastructure”? Try: 👉 medicines delivered 👉 legal documents 👉 rural communities connected This isn’t nostalgia, it’s essential infrastructure. It’s not madness to renationalise failure. It’s madness to keep repeating it.

Madness to renationalise. Madness to maintain 19th century infrastructure with a post box every 100m needing emptying

🚨 HUGE on GMB 🔥 We’re told Morgan McSweeney’s WhatsApp messages with Mandelson are gone because his phone was stolen and police didn’t investigate. But as @Kevin_Maguire points out: 👉 WhatsApp messages don’t disappear with a phone 👉 They can be restored from backups 🧨 So the real question is: Why can’t these messages be recovered?

Labour have been smearing the Greens on our evidenced-based approach to drugs. If the PM won’t listen to us, and he won’t listen to the experts, will he listen to the families at @anyoneschild, who have lost loved ones under the UK’s current negligent drug policies?

"There’s zero operational dependency on what govt taxes to what it can spend"

This makes no sense. Of course McSweeney’s texts are available in these circumstances — I know because this happened to me McSweeney’s “device was shut off remotely and he was given a new one with the same number the next day” theguardian.com/politics/2026/…

We will never forget who backed this war.

@Heccles94 Because while it fails in terms of service, it succeeds spectacularly in terms of a small number of people making a shed-load of money out of it. 🤨

So why are they trying it with the NHS?

"The decline of the West is not necessary or historically inevitable. It is the result of choosing policies dictated by its rentier interests." -Michael Hudson

The working-class vote is what matters in a democracy. theguardian.com/politics/2026/…

Zack Polanski sets out his day 1 priorities if PM: 1. Change voting system from FPTP to PR 2. Introduce a wealth tax 3. End homelessness (including by ending right to buy, building social housing and freezing rent)

In Denmark - the country Britain’s Home Secretary constantly cites as an inspiration - the ruling centre left party is don sharply to its worst ever vote share, while both parties to its left and on the radical right gain.

Privatisation of utilities and services. It's just not working, is it? Declining functionality, crumbling infrastructure, insecure employment and free money funnelled into the pockets of parasitic investors and financiers. Private wealth, public squalor. Renationalise now!
