European. Virtue Signaller. History nerd. Trying to save the world: mixed results so far. Being honest, I think the UK has probably run its course as a union of four nations. Views are all my own.

Harvey Milk was an officer in the US Navy and a veteran of the Korean War. It was christened by Milk's nephew and its sponsor was Paula Neira, a prominent transwoman and LBGTQ campaigner. (And the ship is a replenishment oiler, not a warship. Hence the USNS.) Clutch pearls elsewhere..

See, when you let the bully stuff you in a trash can, he comes back with so much more respect for you … wait, that’s not how it works?

Starmer: ‘Badenoch does not do the work needed. She just looks at social media every Wednesday to decide what to ask.’ #PMQs And she’s not even on BlueSky

Badenoch’s the backwash of the dregs of Brexit. It destroyed the Tories and left them with this pitiful rabble led by an incompetent halfwit. They’re finished #pmqs

🚨NEW: VoteVets slams decision to strip Harvey Milk’s name from Navy ship. “This isn’t just offensive—it’s a calculated act of disrespect.” It's not about tradition. It’s about forcing out those who don’t fit Hegseth’s 1980s action figure fantasy of service. FULL STATEMENT ⬇️

The MAGAs love pettiness. They'll see that as a win because it insults the people they love to hate.

I take it all the RW Brexiters are howling & shrieking about sovereignty and the outrage of an unelected body like NATO telling the UK how to spend its money. Or perhaps sovereignty isn't such a big deal when it comes to tanks, planes, warships and fighting wars. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

If you’re looking at Elon Musk’s DOGE and thinking that is how we want to have our bins collected and potholes filled - you might be learning the wrong lesson.

Dear Keir Starmer & co, You could stop the small boats, smash the gangs, and take back government control over entry to the UK, very quickly if you took up the French offer of a centre to process claims in northern France. If it was the boats and the deaths you wanted to stop. #r4today
