The 2026 World Cup must be the last tournament FIFA ever runs. FIFA is no longer a governing body, it is a compromised corporate syndicate that bends its own code for access and profit. Global football belongs to the fans and players, not FIFAs corrupt boardroom.

“Obviously not qualified.” There it is.
Arday is dead before Cambridge’s inquiry could establish the facts, and Braverman is already rummaging through the tragedy for an anti-DEI talking point.
Condolences at the bottom. Culture war at the top. Absolutely fucking grim.
Jason Arday’s death is a tragedy.
This awful episode goes to the heart of the problem of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion programmes and why I am so opposed to them.
DEI means that people from ethnic minorities can be exploited and over-promoted by businesses and institutions that need to tick a box. Even if they are obviously not qualified.
Those enablers within Higher Education and Cambridge University who were so quick to promote someone so obviously not suited to the role have serious questions to answer about the part they played in all of this.
My condolences go to Jason’s family and friends.
Rest in Peace Jason Arday.

The real mystery isn't @Nigel_Farage. It's what level of unquestioning loyalty it takes to campaign for him after everything that's unfolded.
This is an absolute delight to listen to, and worth 5 minutes of anyone's time. A 94-year-old Clacton resident schools Reform UK Cllr Justin Jay out canvassing for Farage. Jay is not the brightest, claiming Farage is paying the £250k election costs, which of course is a lie.

The world premiere of #Relics @LyricHammer is a rare thing: hilarious, moving & genuinely smart all at once. Ben Ockrent's writing is razor-sharp; Charly Clive, Sally Phillips, JJ Feild & Sam Swainsbury are superb.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Farage, you spent decades monetising grievance and division; it turns out voters eventually expect more than a travelling roadshow of blame and resentment.
A fantastic result for Andy Burnham, who offers something increasingly rare in politics: substance.theguardian.com/politics/202…

So the pitch is: vote for us or we’ll dump detention centres in your area.
Using state power to reward supporters and punish everyone else is petty, authoritarian, and legally shaky.
Reform UK, putting the 'n' back into cuts.
Vote Reform get a bunch of cuts.

‘Ethnonationalism’ + ‘Blut und Boden’ = Nazism
“British identity cannot be acquired. It is blood, soil and a birthright.”
This is copy-paste fascism for engagement. Same rotten ideas, same end point.
What exactly did you expect people to do with this, Saskia Teague?

Some cursory googling of the available oil reserves left to the UK, including those as yet untapped in the north sea, vs how long they would last at current usage rates, will tell you all you need to know about the utter bollocks people like Laila Cunningham spout.

The true face of “Inevitable West”: an Indian grifter in Dubai monetising right-wing hate-bait & crypto scams. Rage farming & financial scams make a tidy living if you’ve got no integrity. Will the UAE @UAEmediaoffice or @X care? Seems unlikely.

Opaque funding, Russian-funded talking points, permanent culture-war outrage and policies designed to make you angrier, poorer and sicker - all wrapped up in a party stuffed with ex-Tory failures who couldn’t run a bath.
If that’s your thing, Reform has you marked.🤡

Excellent essay by Reza Aslan. A timely antidote to the misinformation on social media proclaiming an exiled prince from a dynasty of tyrants as Iran’s ‘saviour’. Iran’s future must be decided by Iranians - not bombs, foreign powers or cosplay monarchists.nytimes.com/2026/03/06/opini…
