I managed to watch #C4BritainDecides for just over 0.003 of a peco second. What a woeful panel designed soley for the pathetic ding dong politics that most of the country just said it was thoroughly sick of. Massive own goal by Channel 4

If I had to compile a series of 8-second clips to capture what I love most about the British sense of humour and life on these wonderful isles, this one would be in my top three. #GeneralElection2024

Signal gone on the TV in the pub. Utter utter calamity. We’ve all been sent away. Worst failure of technology since the Titanic.

Scenes at Edgbaston where India are playing Pakistan but people are watching the England game. 2 sets of rival supporters united by their love of England! #PakvsInd #ENGSUI #comeonengland #england

“Previously, on America…”

God I miss decent long-form reporting and analysis on #Newsnight by brilliant journalists, rather than this ridiculous 3D tabloid-lite format of 2 Dings versus 2 Dongs. BBC Newsnight

excellent from Michael Sandel on deeper issues in US election... nytimes.com/2024/07/27/opi…

A reminder After the Aug 2011 riots, police & my prosecutors examined all the video evidence for MONTHS identifying & bringing offenders to justice - 1000s of them Some didn’t get arrested till a year later! Prison was the usual sentence My boss was someone called Keir Starmer

What Keir Starmer said after Southport is on the record. It's sitting on the Downing Street web-site. We can all read it. So if you want to claim he "smeared" everyone with legitimate concerns over immigration as "far-right" fine. But you're lying. And we can see you're lying.

"If Musk created X now, the way it is, would we in the media use it? No! we wouldn't touch it a barge pole." Are unmediated platforms like X beyond redemption - and should we stop using it? Lewis Goodall | Jon Sopel

If Harris and Walz are the tweet, then Trump and Vance are the comments section.

In her new book about QAnon, Jesselyn Cook explores the harrowing experience of loving someone who’s embraced a conspiracy theory—and the impossible question of how long to stand by them, writes Faith Hill: theatlantic.com/books/archive/…

Trying not to hyperventilate…

First they came for the weapons grade imbeciles who, unbelievably, compared an actual Holocaust to the idea of stopping people from smoking in pub gardens. And I did not speak out. Because there are literally no words to describe the utter awfulness of these hideous people…

🚨”Morning officer, I’d like to report a murder on live radio please…” So good to hear James O’Brien at his sparkling best on a sunny Friday morning! 😂 LBC James O'Brien #LBC

UK exit polls: bing bong, here’s the prime minister US exit polls: is it better to be loved or feared? Give your answer to the nearest cubit

Logan Roy treated Roman with less disdain after his ‘pic mishap’ than Brian Cox treated the Worzel Gummidge of British populism just now. Quality telly. #C4AmericaDecides
