Some very silly people are suggesting that Liz Truss was ‘bullied’ by the #LedByDonkeys prank. We are talking about a disreputable chancer who has never shown any remorse, and gone the full SteveBannon/Trump route purely for relevance. She deserves all the ridicule she gets.

Does anyone else have the feeling something very odd is happening on X? Lost about a hundred followers last night after calling Musk an idiot. 200 in the last few days. Half the time I'm not sure if my tweets even reach more than a handful of people.

I look at this grotesque ridiculous half-mad criminal/clown, and wonder, with something like awe, what possessed millions of Americans to make such an incredible decision to put such a #weird monstrosity in the highest office in the land.

What to do when you see the breathtaking dishonesty and audacity of posts like these? Read my substack post on why some of the worst people in the country are pretending to love the (white) working class: open.substack.com/pub/mattcarr/p…

I shouldn’t be surprised after eight years of this, but the stream-of-consciousness lying is still jaw-dropping. And the only thing more shocking than this foaming gibberish is that millions of Americans either don’t know he’s lying or don’t care.

The only ‘topsy-turvy’ world is the one where the likes of #BorisJohnson twist facts for political gain, and there are many like them, as I argue here: open.substack.com/pub/mattcarr/p…

#Malta: Today, we remember #DaphneCaruanaGalizia. She would have turned 60 today. Daphne was a fearless journalist who dedicated her life to exposing corruption and fighting for justice. Her assassination on October 16, 2017, was a tragic loss, but her legacy lives on. This year,

On the left: Jack Straw in 2000 following the Dover tragedy - 58 migrants dead. On the right: Yvette Cooper in 2024 following #Channelcrossing disaster - 12 migrants dead. Same ‘evil trafficking’ pseudo-moralising. Same default position: Repression. Harder borders

Straight from ‘already-existing dystopias’. Millionaire tax-evader sees homeless person who might be dead. Stops to take a pic. Walks on by. Posts pic in order to blame Sadiq Khan. Nice.
