Nick Robinson painting a miserable picture of #LabourConference2024, the joy in his undertones seeming to authenticate that, but a govt this powerful, presenting as downbeat, handwringing and "finding it harder than they thought". Doubt it. It's just pissing down. #r4today

Leave Michael Gove alone. He has excellent credentials for replacing Fraser Nelson at The Spectator and a unique insider's view as the Covid corruption commissioner discovers the truth about Tory Covid contracts for their mates.

The botflies released at the LGBA conference by TRAs, Dermatobia hominis, the only species of botfly known to parasitise humans routinely, is a pretty hardcore (if only), but not as harmful as terf ideology demonising and threatening trans people. #LGBAlliance2024

The "magical amulet" that protects you from WiFi signals and other "evil energies" worn and flogged by Russell Brand, may explain why the 'other' signals aren't coming through.

He's not your King, Australia, hands off! He's ours. #NotMyKing #AbolishTheMonarchy

Now the United States of America has publicly shat itself electing #Trump again, please can we have some news from Gaza, where the genocide continues. #Stop_Gaza_Genocide

The United States of America has spoken and one thing is clear. They prefer an adjudicated rapist and convicted felon, to a woman for President. Karma will be whipping millions of American asses for years to come. A dark day for the world, a great day for Putin. #TrumpForPrison

On such a depressing day, I'll take any light relief I can get. Keir Starmer is slapping them away after demolishing "white supremacy on black face", Kemi Badenoch's scripted opening sneers. #PMQs

It's too late for a recount. Trump, with a lot of help from Russian and other's disinformation in our pockets has persuaded 73 million Americans to vote for an adjudicated rapist and convicted felon to take over their lives. There will be blood.

It seems #r4today is going the same way as this shithole (not-Twitter). Tuned in to hear Emma Barnett being abrasive and rude to the Archbishop of York, turned off. Came here where it's worse than her, so turning off and heading back to the sanity of #Bluesky

Keir Starmer giving Nigel Farage a red face over his disgraceful attendance record since he was elected. The gammon hero seemed to bask in the negative attention, as he used his question to brownnose Donald Trump. #PMQs

The 'X-it' from not-Twitter is a thing of beauty. Is the 'Great Elon Musk' going to contaminate Bluesky with his pronouncements because millions have said goodbye to them here?

Victoria Atkins whingeing that a 'poor' 80 yr old farmer might kill himself to spare his family inheritance tax on his £8m farm (only made £19,000 last year) is not the argument slayer she thinks. Tone deaf or what!#r4today #farmers

I wonder if Gregg Wallace will make next year's IACGMOOH or if it will be too soon for the wrath of 'middle-class women of a certain age' to dissipate? I imagine he looks like Munch's 'Scream' right now.

Odd interview from the Barnett on the Washington shooting, informing us of little other than 2 lovely human beings were murdered and I'm still waiting to hear news from Gaza, where 10s of 1000s of lovely humans have been murdered. #r4today #FreePalestine

Rachel Johnson giving a genocide apologist free rein to spout her 'blood libel' accusations. There's no push back. Just on and on and on and... LBC #FreePalestine

Fantastic to see Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf back at Centre Court watching #JackDraper #Wimbledon

Just landed in Heathrow Airport T3. Went into M&S. Three staff working. I said to them "Free Free" All of them responded with "Palestine" I have a voice recording & their names to report to M&S. We must confront antisemitism every time. #FreePalestine #StopStarvingGaza

The BBC is giving the far right and their agitating, precedence over genocide in Gaza, the continuing slaughter of civilians in Ukraine, famine in Africa, or Trump trying to be take over the Federal Reserve. Gaza has been pushed off their News app front page #r4today
