The angry brigade
The Angry Brigade Those joyless fuckers of right-wingery Those po-faced bigots of melancholy Oh where do I begin? They are as miserable as sin Their mission is to stop anyone enjoying themselves Mean spirited mealy mouthed killjoys Kiniving to make everyone's life uncomfortable Truth flies out of the window when the right-winger comes to town Imagine having no compassion, no empathy, no concept of kindness It must be what it's like to be a zombie, a member of the living dead. Never enjoying life, just suffering it.

Un grand merci à France 2 et M6 qui ont ignoré notre rassemblement de masse et nos propositions à Clermont-Ferrand. Nous leur enverrons la liste des poubelles en flammes pour qu'elles ne ratent rien de l'actualité. Ça va être comme ça toute la présidentielle ?

Absolutely. Go for it. You’ve now got the majority of the country behind you and we have stacks of indisputable evidence of the catastrophic damaged caused to our country and the economy.

New from me on Political Sandbox:

Not Everything Has Two Sides

The PM said the security services told him Russia interfered in the Brexit referendum. The BBC found a pro-Brexit lobby group to rebut things he never said.

A noir illustration of a dim broadcast studio. Under a single red-tinted light, a set of brass scales hangs perfectly level: one pan holds a thick government dossier tied with red string and sealed with red wax, the other a battered megaphone. A television camera on a tripod watches from the shadows.

UK Prime Minister just said it is clear that Russia interfered in Brexit referendum.

And how did Russia do that? Probably via AI bots, targeted manipulation and disinformation on social media…

This is why we believe in a verified human behind each account.

The boy who cried wolf turned into the man who cried anti-Semitism and he has devalued its meaning in doing so. It's perfectly okay to criticise Israel. That in itself is not anti-Semitic.

Muse is Meta's latest attempt to get as much of your data as possible. Think twice before downloading Meta Muse, the tech giant's latest personal AI agent. Using it allows Meta to access your online accounts and worrying amounts of personal data. by Lena Published on: 2026-09-30 Muse Filled out the field trip form from your email-it was due today Field Trip Permission Slip Field trip permission slip PDF gradedonacurve 4d ago Mostly marketing but it's the first big one being positioned as a personal assistant that handles workflows rather than being a chatbot basically. My personal opinion though is if you're willing to deeply integrate a Meta product into your life (email, doctors appointments, family info, ect), you'd have to be either completely ignorant of the last 10 years of Meta user data scandals...or just abominably stupid. Omg I forgot! M illions of Meta users in the US and Canada are downloading and using Meta's latest AI app, Meta Muse. The personal AI agent can send emails, book trips, and more. This might sound useful in theory, but in reality, it means Meta's AI technology has access to your accounts, a scary amount of personal data, and it's learning about you. And given Meta's history, can you really trust Mark Zuckerberg's company with such invasive technology? Table of contents = Granting AI agents access to your accounts To trust or not to trust Meta - it's a no from me!

No one is mentioning the elephant in the room. Rejoining the #EU will mean #Schengen and adopting the #Euro. Yes, dropping the #Pound that is!
Not to mention #Fisheries rules.
That is still a huge issue for a large portion of the #British people.
