  1. Spectator mechanically/religiously biased? Why never, colour my socks pink.

    The Centre for Media Monitoring published detailed research of the right-wing magazine’s coverage of Muslims and Islam between January 2018 and December 2025, examining almost 4000 articles.

    I 57.4% of articles – more than 2100 – were rated “biased” or “very biased” against Muslims, with a small number “met standards of balanced and fair representation”.

  2. Funny how spectating a marathon puts on the miles! We are not “grab a spot at the finish line and camp out until your runner passes” people, so Saturday was a morning of exploring the race infrastructure and logistics.

    Logged 6 miles & 14,000 steps

    11+ miles for the weekend

    “While systematically killing Palestinian journalists, the Israeli government blocked entry of foreign media workers to Gaza, in an effort to create a blackout of its genocidal campaign.

    At the same time, an influential lobby group named ELNET has been quietly taking UK journalists on propaganda tours of Israel”

    🇺🇸 Part 2 🇦🇪”

    “ is a MAGA politician operating on British shores. To all intents and purposes, he is an agent of Trump’s regime trying to transport his agenda from Washington to Westminster.

    The reasons for Farage’s America-obsession are multi-faceted. Some are ideological, and some are purely financial”

  5. The #Spectator is an odd publication.
    Leaving aside a dubious treatment of the costs of gas generators and wind, (briefly: wind is cheaper; we have some gas; it'll last longer on a lower duty-cycle; batteries exist.)
    The author ignores entirely the cost of continuing damage to the environment, which is already considerable.

    Selling simplicity to the Right.

  6. 🤖🃏 Oh, joy! Now you can spend your precious time watching #robots play #poker against each other, because clearly that's more thrilling than watching paint dry. 🤦‍♂️ Just when you thought poker couldn't get more monotonous, behold, #AI turning it into a #spectator sport! 🎉

  7. Ah, the timeless art of "people watching" 🤔, brilliantly stretched into 21 excruciating #observations that make watching paint dry seem thrilling 🎨. Because who knew noticing a stranger's "internal architecture" could be the new #spectator sport? 🙄🏗️

  8. Hmm it will be interesting to see whether #MichaelGove moderates the #Spectator, or whether he acquiesces to its owner, #PaulMarshall and it gets even more like GBNews

  9. The Gove is to be the editor of the Spectator

    Of course he is

    Why didn't I see this coming
