@jorgecandeias@mastodon.socialKeir Starmer will go down in history as even worse than Tony Blair in the Labour PM rankings, which is no small feat.
If he was just trying his best to deliver the UK to the far-right with all the repressive apparatus ready to go, he wouldn't be doing a better job at it.
@gedankenstuecke@scholar.social«The UK public doesn’t trust AI — the Tony Blair Institute is very worried!»
Looks like a good part of the UK's public has the good sense to neither trust Tony Blair nor LLMs 😂

@cdarwin@c.imThe White House is backing a plan that would see Tony Blair head a temporary administration of the Gaza Strip
– initially without the direct involvement of the Palestinian Authority (PA), according to Israeli media reports.
Under the proposal, Blair would lead a body called the Gaza International Transitional Authority (Gita)
that would have a mandate to be Gaza’s “supreme political and legal authority” for as long as five years.
@grifferz@social.bitfolk.comReading the drama about BBC having to edit an episode of Have I Got News For You because they incorrectly said that contract for UK ID card scheme went to company run by Tony Blair's son. Only to find it actually went to Oracle.
Some sort of litmus test for which kind of wonk you are? If IT wonk, be more outraged at Oracle. If politics wonk, be triggered by purported Blair nepotism

@simon_brooke@mastodon.scotI can't help feeling that any 'peace deal' for #Gaza supported by Cooper and Trump, and making Tony #Blair interim governor, will be a permanent stain on the conscience of the world.

@curiouscat@fosstodon.orgIt is interesting to me how different we humans can be in ways that we often don't think about.
"When M.X. thought of people or objects, he did not see them. And yet his visual memories were intact. M.X. could answer factual questions such as whether former Prime Minister Tony Blair has light-colored eyes. (He does.) M.X. could even solve problems that required mentally rotating shapes, even though he could not see them."
