Interesting that the incoming administration is creating deepfake videos of their own president-elect giving policy announcements. Trump is not this articulate any more. Watch whether the new president makes any live TV appearances or interviews on non-captive (Fox) networks.

Brendan shows (or pretends) a lack of media understanding here. There was no lack of outrage over the grooming scandal. What you’re noticing is that nobody was making jokes on Twitter about it. You’ll see a lot more funny tweets about Greg because it’s easy to make fun of him.

Kind of a niche service, Monzo 🏦, but I appreciate it. They do have a habit of going missing and I’m sure it feels awkward to ask your old bosses to dig them out of the stationery cupboard

A significant intervention by Andrew Norfolk, whose reporting on grooming from Jan 2011 led to the Jay inquiry in Rotherham + national attention to local grooming gang phenomenon. Captures something overlooked: national media reporting comes *after* prosecutions, 2009-10

It really is the case that Elon Musk knows absolutely fuck all about the issue of grooming, having apparently discovered it in the last fortnight Anybody giving credence to Musk's mad personal vendetta against Starmer is undermining actual public service on this terrible issue
