  1. Aaaaargh. Dug out the Switch to play Rocket League except I need to move the virtual game card over and … that needs the other console to be working.

    Absolute omnishambles of a system.

    I'm kind of enjoying the wave of articles explaining the *real* reason behind the Trump tariffs. Corruption. Incompetence. Deliberate economic crash. Chaos demon. Personal aggrandisement. Russian agent.

    Each one starts with "No, don't be distracted, it's x!" and then hives off in a different direction.

  3. …fuck, this was only Monday. #omnishambles

  4. TikTok faces ban in US by Sunday after Supreme Court rejects appeal | BBC News | Oh dear…

    In the UK we call this an “omnishambles” — it doesn’t matter how you look at it, it’s a mess.

    My suspicion is throwing it over the wall to Trump is supposed to make him look bad/under foreign influence, but it will mostly just make him popular if/when he rescinds it.

    Or: the Dems are seeking a way to wash their hands of the matter, in which case they look weak as well as incompetent.

    The White House says it will leave enforcement to the incoming Trump administration

    Update

    The CEO of TikTok responds, welcoming the opportunity to work with Trump: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGdSwMh83/

  5. On #farage “He has no idea on the biggest issue that matters to voters, which is tackling the cost of living crisis."

    Right, and neither do you. But unlike you, he offers something to people who are angry about it: Racist pogroms and a never ending list of scapegoats.

    Your dismissive tone makes it seem like you don't seem very concerned about that.

    Happy for you that your family isn't on his detain/deport/drown list

  6. #RachelReeves quoted in #Guardian as claiming to take on "vested interests" despite the fact that we can all read the register of members interests and see how the vested interests are funding her career.

    It's just a list of large corporations, oligarchs, CEO's, property developers, media consultancy firms, £10k from a climate-change denying Baron, a tory Baron centimillionaire, the list goes on.

  7. If only Boris had been allowed to let the pensioners die of COVID.... Then Starmer wouldn't have to cut their fuel allowance and freeze them to death.

    Can someone remind me the difference between Labour and Conservatives?

  8. So having walked to the next county where there should be a departure from Blackwater at 0911, that "service" doesn't show up on the departure board. Of course no one is answering the information point.

  9. “…for playing with my chopper, in front of world leaders”

  11. I’d completely given up on another series of ‘In The Thick Of It’.

    Armando Iannucci must have been guest producing the BBC Today programme.

    Absolute gold standard #Omnishambles.

    For once the #BBC did their job.
    I might tune in again, next year.

  12. “…for making other people look stupid, on his behalf. “

    They really didn’t need his help, but Rishi is all about the details.

  13. In honour of Marinakis, and his achievements at the club I love, may I present Nottingham Forest Flying Circus

  14. Forest “know match officials do not allow outside factors to influence their decision-making”

    Well, except we have match officials on #VAR (Mike Dean) explicitly admitting in 2023 that outside factors did influence his decision making (that he didn’t review a decision to “save his mate embarrassment” - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/66612570)

  16. This won't mean anything to anyone outside Australia, but I, for one, am grateful to Justice Lee for introducing the word #Omnishambles into legal terminology and to described the situation as"Having escaped the lion's den, Mr #Lehrmann made the mistake of coming back for his hat," thereby creating the foundation for so many comedy routines and memes to come....

  17. #omnishambles #BritishTelecom . After years of more or less working services we have working internet after a renewal, but fixing a contract appears to be very difficult for them. #kafka (not the streaming one, the author) would be impressed. Many departments pointing fingers to each other. Doing things online too diffiicult for a telco, so #phonecalls . (other providers not much better it seems, at least we are online, and the engineers they send are competent when needed)

  18. Cleverly as Home Secretary and Cluelessly as Foreign Secretary.

    You really couldn't make it up, but I suppose I shouldn't complain, because Cruella Doberman, the darling of the fascists, has been fired.

    Interesting that Sunak didn't wait until Wednesday and the Supreme Court Rwanda judgement. Maybe he knows what the outcome will be?

    Outstanding bit of progress.

    "Gillian Keegan is education secretary – a role that has been held by 10 different people since the Conservatives assumed power in 2010. It’s been held by five different people since July last year alone."

  24. Huh. The shower in this room has two settings: vaguely warmish, and vaguely cold-ish. It sort of oscillates between the two of them...

    On the other hand my (room-service!) plant burger contained a tomato slice, so I assume I'm now going to take my rightful place on the royal throne as the new queen.
