  1. @feorag sorry, I don't know. I live in Liverpool and (as you presumably know) we #DontBuyTheSun and so it's not in any of the local shops.

    I can recommend this approach to folk elsewhere too 😀

  2. #Sun publisher to be searched over ‘fake security threat’ claims, court hears -

    Documents linked to a former #NewsInternational executive can be searched over claims #RupertMurdoch’s media company falsely implicated #GordonBrown and #TomWatson in a “#FakeSecurityThreat” to “justify” the deletion of millions of emails, the high court heard.

  3. More shameful Farage-esque dogwhistle politics from Starmer, speaking to a Sun audience.

    - “At the moment people coming from Bangladesh are not being removed…”

    “I’ll make sure we got planes going off, back to the countries where people came from…”

    Keir Starmer talking to the S*n and doing his best Nigel Farage impression.

    How can anyone vote for this man? -

  4. @janet It does seem weird that there isn't more available.

    The Lucas Plan (the book) has lots of interesting history from a union perspective - my notes at mcqn.net/mcfilter/archives/boo

    I'm always curious about how the #DontBuyTheSun project got traction and continues, here in Liverpool. There's an obvious reason for it starting, but that didn't guarantee it'd take hold. I've not worked out who to ask about it yet.

  5. I haven't seen Dickie for ages, but we played 5-a-side together 10, 15 years ago.

    His memories of being at Hillsborough.

    I didn't go to it, but remember one of my schoolmates was there, in the upper stands luckily for him.

  6. @bascule #dontbuythesun

    It's literally banned around my way they are a shit rag and have always been a shit rag.

  7. Hands up everyone who was disappointed to find out Rupert Murdoch was merely stepping down from News International, rather than shuffling off this mortal coil?
