I truly can't stand this stuff. Obviously Sunak is appalling, but this kind of European smugness and absence of self-reflection - including in its Irish iteration - really needs to go in the bin too.

What is going on?

First the minister dropped seeking consent in the current sexual offences bill.

Now the Irish govt won’t agree at EU level that definition of rape is the absence of consent.

So much for of

how do you type this out and not realise, even for the briefest of moments, that it applies to you more than to any other person alive?

Rosaura Almonte asked for an abortion in order to use chemotherapy as leukaemia treatment, but was denied. Both Rosaura and her 13-week-old foetus died.
In the Dominican Republic, abortion is criminalised without exceptions.

American Republicans are most definitely not sending their best … anywhere. Such historical ignorance from a senior political advisor is jaw dropping.

reminds me of that street which opposed a telegraph pole outside their houses for fibre broadband so they're stuck with cable while all their neighbours have gigabyte internet. funny

Few people now doubt that Tony Blair and Alastair Campbell grossly exaggerated the threat from Iraq. This led directly to the dangerous weakening of the BBC (which reported accurately on Iraq) and the contempt many now feel for politics and politicians. theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/d…

what was mad was that if you pointed out that this was performative nonsense that just undermined the fight for e.g. wage increases people did the whole reheated 2003 bullshit of 'oh so you HATE the NHS? you want the VIRUS to win?'

Edinburgh's Hogmanay: 'a fantastic 4-day programme of events' is upon us

The Council pays £812k for this, and organisers say they need another £500k to keep it going

Both claim last year's events 'generated over £48.5m for Scotland’s economy'🙄

Happens to all of us. We're going to make a bombing run on a refugee camp and then someone, not naming any names, loaded up a gigantic bomb into the plane instead of the regular bomb we use on refugee camps.

Can someone please remind Leo Varadkar that Ireland has full employment alongside the highest level of market income inequality in the EU We have more working-at-risk-of-poverty than ever and his policies rely social transfers/social welfare to maintain the status quo.

It still has the backing of the United States and as long as that holds, Israel can do whatever it likes. That's the terrible reality

I don't know how accurate this is and I think it's morally wrong anyway, but it's also a bad idea. Labour will only ever be able to hold down the idea that they're the more competent racists for a term or two, and pushing the electorate further to the right only harms themselves
