Tell me you're a fascist shit bag without saying you're a fascist shit bag.

Speaking to reporters afterwards, [Galloway] listed more areas with large Muslim populations and vowed to "win or make sure that Keir Starmer doesn't win".

The Conservatives’ economic record since 2010 in 10 charts | Budget 2024 (spring) | The Guardian

Absolutely excoriating set of charts. The Tories should be consigned to the opposition benches for eternity.

#Enshitification.

We have a Yale smart lock on our front door. It is shit. It has been shit for years. They emailed to inform us they are discontinuing this model. We need to pay to upgrade, to continue using our own front fucking door.

Nope. Would rather pay for a new door/lock, thanks.

You absolute twats

... John is edgy AF and is being CENSORED. Proudly starting how you were arrested for inciting racist or religious hatred is an interesting gambit in one of the most diverse areas in the most diverse city in the country.

(Can't disagree with the sentiment, but it is difficult to see how a borough mayor in SE London is going to impact the Israeli government when the president of the United States cannot.)

Brenda is the Labour Candidate. Brenda will win. Brenda is going to be so pissed when she finds out who has been running Lewisham since 1971.

This is Maureen. Unfortunately, Maureen is a Christian fundamentalist homophobe. Don't be like Maureen.

Last time she ran for mayor (2022), Maureen said she was going to ban same-sex marriage (not actually in the power of Lewisham mayor). When her employer found out about her bigoted tweets, she was fired. She went to a tribunal, and her employer settled out of court to make her go away.

Maureen mistakenly sees this as a selling point.

BBC News: Sadiq Khan says fake AI audio of him nearly led to serious disorder

Fash using AI to provoke riots.

Creator got away with it.

The guy who first shared it (clearly the most racist gammon imaginable) says "we all know it's what [Khan's] thinking anyway".

@moira yeah, I can be empathetic towards the human but also fuck his privilege and the archaic system that gave it to him.
