@ChalussetG @AJamesMcCarthy This is like saying you can't take a clear photo out an airplane window because it's flying at 500mph. Such a dumbass thing to say

At first glance this looks like a daytime photo- but it’s not.
I don’t think we’ve ever seen Earth at night photographed quite like this. Historic.

We see our home planet as a whole, lit up in spectacular blues and browns. A green aurora even lights up the atmosphere. That's us, together, watching as our astronauts make their journey to the Moon.

@RainbowzZz9 @PolitlcsUK @theipaper Moreover, the main problem with Grenfell was not the lack of regulation but the lack of adherence - the cladding they were using was already banned and inspections missed it.
You wont be able to prevent such a mistake happening again. No matter how much you try to regulate it.

@RainbowzZz9 @PolitlcsUK @theipaper Well this is just plain nonsense. There are 10,000+ apartment blocks in the UK. Only one has had a serious fatal fire in the last 100 years.

🚨 NEW: Reform UK's housing chief Simon Dudley says post-Grenfell safety regulations have gone too far
"Everyone dies in the end. It’s just how you go, right? You can’t stop tragic things from happening. Fires do happen"
[@theipaper]
English
@ConnorCLP1984 @PolitlcsUK @theipaper Yes because he said it in an insensitive way and caused outraged. But the principle that fire safety has gone way over the top since Grenfell is not a fringe far-right idea. You will find many people questioning whether there are now too many regulations to combat a minute risk.
English
@DanielNotDan21 @PolitlcsUK @theipaper Reform seems to disagree considering he just got sacked for saying that.
English
@RainbowzZz9 @PolitlcsUK @theipaper We had adequate fire safety before Grenfell. Bad things can always happen
English
@DanielNotDan21 @PolitlcsUK @theipaper Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.
English
@Puggersxdd @RichRedVoices @PolitlcsUK @theipaper Well before Grenfell there were tower blocks burning down all the time weren't there? Oh no there weren't you stupid cunt
English
@DanielNotDan21 @RichRedVoices @PolitlcsUK @theipaper What do you think the alternative is you stupid cunt?
English
English
English
@ConnorCLP1984 @PolitlcsUK @theipaper There is a level of reasonable risk. This level of provision is way past that. I'm fine with a single fire alarm and a working fire door. The legislation in the wake of Grenfell is obviously over the top

@BenObeseJecty @orlaminihane He says "in our area" twice here. Are you thick or just ragebaiting?
English
@orlaminihane “We are going to fight every seat in the council elections next year in our area, and we are aiming to win every seat in our area.”
So are Great Yarmouth First still standing candidates in these local elections, or not Orla?
It’s a simple question.
Rupert Lowe MP@RupertLowe10
For those who don’t know, I’ve set up a new local political party called Great Yarmouth First. I was elected by Great Yarmouth, for Great Yarmouth. That has guided everything I’ve done. New constituency polling has shown us on 44%, Labour on 17%, Reform 16%, Tory 13%. Lib Dems and Greens on 5% each. This shows that unapologetically patriotic politics has real support - particularly when it’s mixed with local priorities for local people. We are going to fight every seat in the council elections next year in our area, and we are aiming to win every seat in our area. A different kind of politics is coming, and I don’t think anybody in Westminster understands the power of it.
English
Rupert Lowe announces that his new political party, Restore Britain will only be standing candidates in the local elections in Great Yarmouth.
Four months ago he said his old new political party, Great Yarmouth First, would “fight every seat in the council elections next year in our area”.
So which is it?
Rupert Lowe is an active director of both Great Yarmouth First Ltd and Restore Britain Ltd. Is he pitting candidates for both parties against one another in Great Yarmouth? Or is Great Yarmouth First dead and buried?
Rupert Lowe MP@RupertLowe10
Restore Britain statement on the May elections. The Restore Britain team have consulted with hundreds of members all over the country about how we should approach the May elections, considering we have only been officially registered as a political party for twelve days. The elections take place in 36 days. I am going to be entirely honest with you all, unusual for a politician I understand - none of the usual spin or twisting. We are simply not ready to field thousands of qualified candidates - all over England, with Wales and Scotland included. We could. We have had the offers and we certainly have the ability to campaign. But that would be wrong. I am not going to present to the British people thousands of candidates who have not been properly vetted, interviewed or considered. That would be irresponsible and rash. We’ve seen what happens when new parties do that, and the voters get let down. Our priority has been on establishing local branches, we have spoken to hundreds and hundreds of amazing volunteers. Local infrastructure is forming all over Britain. Restore Britain’s small team have done in weeks what it has taken other parties years to achieve. It has been remarkable, and I want to personally thank them. Dozens of local branch meetings have taken place already, with more happening every day. If you haven’t already heard about a local event, you will soon. Please be patient and understand the scale of the logistical task our team are dealing with - almost 20,000 people have volunteered to actively help in every corner of Britain. A national billboard campaign has been running, with hundreds of thousands of leaflets already delivered. 124,000 members. More than the Tories and double the Lib Dems, polling at 8% nationally. It is all history in the making. But to properly process thousands of candidates on top of that is not logistically possible in such a short period of time, and I do not want to be in a position where we have individuals elected who do not understand the important responsibilities of local government. Paper candidates. Those with questionable histories. Opportunist careerists. Individuals who have no interest in working hard. Some even simply after the money. I do not want to present them to the British people. Look at Reform’s track record following its desperation to stand candidates - promising tax cuts, then hiking people’s council tax bills. A staggering 9% in one Reform council. 9%. Families cannot afford it. It is morally wrong, and I want no repeat of it. Let’s learn from their mistakes, not our own. We are going to do this right. Where we stand, we will aim to win. Where we win, we will properly represent those residents. We will put forward the right people, with the right ideas, and the right principles. In Great Yarmouth, my constituency, we have the infrastructure to do that. We have been working on it for many months. We are prepared. There are ten elections in Great Yarmouth - nine county council seats, and one borough council by-election. Those are the only elections we will be contesting in May. The plan is straightforward. Our aim is to sweep away the rotten political establishment. Decimate the Tories, Reform and Labour in Great Yarmouth. Show the rest of the country that it can be done. Set an example. Send a message. Then take that into the rest of 2026, and the elections in 2027 where we will aim to stand qualified candidates in every seat across Britain. Work has already started on this - potential candidates are already being contacted. In the meantime, I need your help. We need your help. Come to Great Yarmouth and help the campaign. The most important day is May 7th. There are also two major action days on April 18th, and May 2nd. I want to see hundreds and hundreds of Restore Britain members descending on Great Yarmouth to help us make history. Teams will be out every single day between April 7th and the election, with a bigger presence out on Saturdays. If you can make one trip to Great Yarmouth between now and the election, that would be sincerely appreciated. Particularly on May 7th. We are running the most professional local election campaign Britain has ever seen, but we need your help. If you are planning to make the trip, please register through the link below so we can track numbers. restorebritain.typeform.com/greatyarmouth We have just over five weeks to make history. To those asking how to vote in their own local election - my advice is this. Examine the options. Look at who has taken the care to explore real local issues that impact your community. Support who you think is best to deliver for your family, your road, your village, your town. Next year, that option will be Restore Britain. But in this one set of elections, we are taking a targeted and concentrated approach. Because restoring Britain starts in Great Yarmouth, then we take it national. That’s the plan. I hope you will help us deliver that. Rupert Lowe

Not sure why so many people tweeting about #TheCapture don’t get it. Like it’s a mystery you’re not supposed to know the entire plot and what has been revealed so far is not hard to understand?

To manage growing demand for Claude we're adjusting our 5 hour session limits for free/Pro/Max subs during peak hours. Your weekly limits remain unchanged.
During weekdays between 5am–11am PT / 1pm–7pm GMT, you'll move through your 5-hour session limits faster than before.

@OldStationSt @John_keller96 @Stephen92165934 Truly amazing you cant see the forest for the trees though. Why do you think Yakoob is thriving? If you won't even dare think about the answer you have no hope in hell of stopping them.
English
@John_keller96 @Stephen92165934 I always enjoy blocking the racists when they reveal themselves. No mercy!
English
Anyone voting for any of Yakoob's grifters and bigots in Birmingham's May local elections deserves everything they get over the next 4yrs in Birmingham if you give them a sniff of influence. Will have absolutely zero sympathy for the city.
The grift and rot will be off the chart
Sam Coates Sky@SamCoatesSky
This is a brilliant - bleak - piece about the broken local politics of Birmingham. First class on the ground reporting by @alexrogerssky @JoshGafson1 These pieces aren’t easy - you only get footage like this with skill, graft and luck - please watch:
English
@tryagainlimited @tomosman @AnthropicAI Its because their infra cannot handle the peak load. A few weeks back it would constantly go down at peak times. Then they introduced the 2x off-peak limits as a way to reduce peak limits by stealth.
English
@tomosman @AnthropicAI i just dont understand the plan: let's limit compute during the highest usage hours... because profit?
like.. what?
OOH
what if claude is running it, and wanted a break, so limits the compute during the busiest times so it gets a break?
English
Looks like we've all been rugged by @AnthropicAI.
The ride is over.

Yo @AnthropicAI why are you pillaging everyone's usage. Has it been greatly reduced without telling anyone?

@ursine_meeting Why should Spanish custom dictate what we can and cannot do in this country? This is such a tired argument
English
I'd like to know if Spain does, in fact, produce polling cards (or their equivalent) in English so that people who don't speak Spanish can vote in their elections.
Rob Blackie 🔶@robblackie
Nick Timothy, a leading Conservative MP, thinks that it's somehow an outrage that an envelope has some Bengali writing on it. A bit like how countries like Spain publish many things in English for people whose Spanish isn't perfect.

I don’t think it’s the place for fictional TV shows to invoke real life politics in such an on the nose way, that was a pretty icky sequence. Took me right out of the immersion #TheCapture

It is a bit boring how every TV show these days just does far-right conspiracy plots. Getting a bit stale now #thecapture

@BladeoftheS @climbtechy Actually it's pretty obvious you don't have a scooby what is AI and what it isn't when you peddled the schizo theory about Netanyahu the other day.

Israel used AI Netanyahu for an official statement. Where is Netanyahu? Is he alive? Right hand 5 fingers and a thumb.

@climbtechy It's very easy to tell when an image has been taken as a photograph etc or when it has been generated.
The light map details are all wrong.
The cheap AI generators don't bother making a realistic image, not yet anyway.

The Green Party is considering a move to ban AI adverts.
What do you think?

@DanielNotDan21 I have many, many traits that fit the criteria. these are just two I’m sharing.

@bdc_na @AaronBastani Everyone cares about optics during a war, have you ever even opened a history book lmao
English
@DanielNotDan21 @AaronBastani like the original tweet, this is one of many cases of israel attacking and killing reporters and journalists.
you have such a childish view on this as if israel hasn’t committed worse crimes and gotten away with it. THEY DONT CARE ABT OPTICS
English
The only explanation was they were trying to kill a journalist. There’s nothing else there.
Hundreds have been killed by Israel in the last several years.
