The older I get the more woke I become. Kindness is underrated. Volunteer for Children’s Charity TOGS. Hate politicians that lie. My family, 80’s music, dogs, gardening, reading and silly jokes make me happy. #Rejoin #Republic

Netflix is donating $10 million to the California wildfire relief efforts. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

In other news, Nigel Farage didn't bother to turn up to the debate on grooming gangs in the House of Commons just now

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Please pass this along, thank you.

Happy new year everyone. You’re all great, in some way. Each one of you has a weirdness - a superpower if you want to see it that way - that no-one else has. There’s no perfect, archetypal human. A species is the sum of its parts. And yet, as just one human, you are: special.

Tell him, Mark!

“All donations that originate from abroad, no matter who is the final donor, should be banned. Only UK citizens should be allowed to donate to British political organisations. This would, by necessity mean no donations from private companies; PLCs, LTDs..” eastangliabylines.co.uk/politics/fig...

📌Turns out I quit Twitter the same way I quit smoking many years ago. Went a day without the nasty habit … and then another … and then another. Then I discovered I could do without that cancerous shit forever. Long way of saying: It’s nice to be here.

I’m ready for the fight. I’m not leaving your side. We won’t just get through it. We’re going to thrive. Bring on 2025. 🔥

UK household energy bills are up, expected to increase again in April. Energy companies making record profits. Their profiteering is our cost of living crisis, inflation, poverty. People will die because they can't afford to heat & eat. Govts won't curb profiteering. news.sky.com/story/energy...

I seem to have upset the Nigel Farage fan club - so let me be clear. This man sows hate, lies and division. He is a grifter and a conman. He does not represent the vast majority of Britons. Repost if you agree P.s. multiculturalism is great.

Dear @keirstarmer2.bsky.social, Please move the laws around political & campaign financing to the top of your list Or… Expect 1 term that ends in handing power of this country to a foreign billionaire proxy PM and his little puppet Yours, The people of this country paying attention.

Gisele Pelicot should named as the Time person of the year. For bravely waiving her anonymity in one of the most horrific rape cases the world has seen, to take a stand for survivors and shame the perpetrators. Instead they’re featuring Trump, a rapist, for the second time. Obviously.

Farage targets the poor, lost and lazy disenfranchised by the poverty that he helped to create (via Brexit and his influence on Tory policy for 8 yrs) and then just uses them again for personal gain. If your kink is being fucked by old rich men, fair play, just probably best to not base a vote on it

This needs to be taken very seriously. All donations that originate from abroad, no matter who is the final donor, should be banned. Only UK citizens should be allowed to donate to British political organisations

Burley: "Why didn't you implement it?" Simmonds: "We brought it forward." Burley: "You had fourteen years." Simmonds: "It was ready to go." We can add "stop Chinese influence" to the we-were-just-about-to-do-it pile, with finish HS2, build prisons, stop boats, resolve strikes, etc. 🧐 ~AA

@humblyjay.bsky.social Be Kind ☺️

❗ Say it louder for people at the back: no one expects to need a food bank, especially at Christmas.

Boris Johnson is terrified that we will ditch Brexit, rebuild the UK with the EU, do well economically and… …that will show him for the fraud he is.

Taking Britain out of the Erasmus+ programme was a huge mistake. Labour must rejoin and accept the EU’s offer of a youth mobility scheme

In 1970 the UK and Norway were roughly equal, almost no debt, and owned all their Public Services. Now the UK owns nothing and has £3tn of debt. While Norway still owns everything and has the equivilant per person of £10tn. That's how privatisation 'works'.

What a surprise… As water companies are set to hike our bills by 21% Annunziata Rees-Mogg comes out to bat for… Their shareholders.

🔥🔥🔥Gordon Brown on phone hacking: “In the light of this, I have called for [the police] to examine new evidence as it becomes available from civil case court documents where it suggests charges for perjury and the perversion of the course of justice." ~AA

We've got a Christmas message for you. 💚 Food banks are here to provide a warm welcome, a cuppa and emergency food for anyone who needs it this winter. If you can, please donate to support us 👉 www.trussell.org.uk/hope

2016: Boris Johnson, "We'll be able to stop the tide of EU regulations.. (Remainers) are woefully underestimating this country and what it can do" 2024: "Marks and Spencer opens warehouse to store Brexit paperwork" World-beating warehouses for Brexit red tape 🤷‍♂️

It’s quite an achievement to be called a liar by someone who got sacked twice for lying, repeatedly lied to Parliament, lied to The Queen and cheated on two wives.

"The Grenfell Tower tragedy represents a complete failure of regulation in this country in terms of building safety, and that's at the heart of everything that went wrong." www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Oh.

King Charles has decided to change his Crown logo from the one on the top, to the one on the bottom. This change could cost up to £50m, a brilliant use of our money.

Thank God Vanity Fair is keeping it REAL!

I’m old enough to remember Boris Johnson telling businesses Brexit paperwork could go in a bin. Now they need a warehouse to store it in

Left: Kemi Badenoch, "I grew up in a middle class family but I became working class when I was 16 working at McDonalds" Right: Kemi Badenoch, "I was born into a relatively wealthy family.. My dad was a doctor who had lots of oil company patients.. He got paid very well"

Child Poverty % (children living in households below the minimum wage) Denmark 2.4% Finland 3.2% Norway 3.6% Sweden 3.6% The UK 32.1% All four of those countries have child benefits, paid by taxing the rich, that make it almost impossible for a child to be in poverty.

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage says the public want to leave the ECHR Let him know he’s wrong by sharing this widely

Covid corruption commissioner starts fraud probe Well I hope he gets a lot of our money back after the Tories and their PPE corruption.. And I also hope some of the profiteering wrong 'uns go to jail Let's see. www.bbc.com/news/article...

16 MILLION PEOPLE NOW LIVE IN POVERTY IN THE UK - a staggering 24% of the UK population. @trusselluk.bsky.social urgently need our help to provide emergency food, support & hope to people this winter Please join me in supporting them if you can👇🙏

Where is all the money?

In July, I FOI'd the Home Office for the full breakdown of spending on the Rwanda scheme I was refused because the government planned to publish the data in future, and today is the day. These numbers are in millions www.gov.uk/government/p...
