Ok. Here goes—my 🧵on what Trump 2.0 means for Israel-Palestine (& UK) and, ofc, domestically. TLDR: It's not the end of the world yet; worst immediate impact will be at home, not abroad; there are (razor-thin) silver linings; +learnable lessons to stall further rightward lurch.

So many young people I meet who're getting into filmmaking are middle class/from uni/have family in the arts
If you don't come from those worlds, if you're working class + passionate about cinema, and wld like zoom chat, DM me
Am not offering work, just encouragement/perspective

For only the second time in our 179-year history, the editors of Scientific American are endorsing a candidate for president. That person is @KamalaHarris. | Editorial bit.ly/4daH36q

Progressives tend to lose when defending their ideals means defending broken systems. They win when improving what matters most to people's lives. It's the lack of fairness & opportunity people are angry about. Fix that & we'll get the open, tolerant country I know we are.

Just look at these WhatsApps from a private school parents group…
If only the wealthy would mobilise this well to help others
Not just themselves.

A water company released sewage into the stream that runs into the beach where we were holidaying. I didn’t like the idea of swimming in the sea after that, so I tried to sue to water company for spoiling our holiday. This is what happened…

Esther McVey, Minister for Common Sense, and her husband talk a lot about wasteful public spending. But how careful are they with your money in their own lives? We’ve found out. 👀

Can anyone recommend their favourite working class (ideally funny) columnists? I'm always whinging about how there are no columnists who share my experiences and opinions but perhaps they do exist and I'm just not trying hard enough to find them

The Co-op is just the latest supermarket chain to mug their customers off with 2-tier pricing:
Member price: old price, for which you now must sacrifice your privacy and reveal all your shopping habit data.
Non-member price: new, higher price point.
Inflation for non-members.

Briefs ought to be creative, before they get anywhere near the 'creative department' — i.e., don't just relay, reframe

Look at the state of this graph...
Imagine being THIS SHIT at your job.
Tory MPs and Tory voters
You should be utterly ashamed.

Extraordinary letter in @ft from former UK defence attaché at Moscow embassy - we warned you about Putin but you listened to the City instead

I spent a year working on & filming this documentary, it was due to air in a few weeks. I was waiving my anonymity on camera for the first time about being sexually abused by an MP and how Westminster chose to protect him. The BBC pulled the plug at the 11th hour and silenced me
I've been dealt devastating news today. After a year of filming my #MeToo story in politics, I've been silenced. Serious allegations against MPs will never see the light of day because the press are too scared. Feel like I will never get justice and can't do this anymore

I cannot POSSIBLY be any clearer (as someone who worked in IT managing some of this country's biggest databases)
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD ANYONE PROVIDE PICTURES OF THEIR PASSPORTS OR DRIVING LICENCES
ESPECIALLY NOT
to databases outside the GDPR
THREAD:
X will begin to have users verify their identity by having them submit a selfie alongside a government issued ID. The process requires users to consent to X storing their information for 30 days and sharing it with AU10TIX, an identity verification company based in Israel.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
ID verification is going to be an optional layer of verification for X Blue users. This is not going to affect non-Blue users in any way.
