I have been reading about the intelligence of a crow. Wow! You should read about it too. We are not intelligent as we may think we are as humans. And now, I would like a crow as a 'pet' with complete freedom of movement! #UKWildlife #Birds #Ornithology #Crow #Photography #photographersunited

Starmer's whole episode as PM is a mess. Who's running Blue Labour? What do they want? What does Starmet want? Where's the journey going? What do they want to achieve? Since the day he won the leadership and stabbed Remainers in the back, there's been no narrative. No truth. Just unpopular populism!

Disability benefits cuts affect us all. Anyone can become disabled at any point. The government’s concessions will leave those who become disabled in the future with even less support than today. A third of disabled people are already in poverty. We cannot allow this to grow.

Pensioners are not paid "benefits". They are not paid welfare or social security. They are paid a pension. If the UK is ever to repair its broken social contract we need to get language correct. And not describe everything in the language of the anti-state right-wing.

Has anyone seen the Grenfell documentary on Netflix? Jesus Christ it made me livid! Money grabbing corporates, feckless politicians (Cameron & the awful gobshite Eric Pickles) and pathetic people in senior positions in building standards, all set against heartbreaking personal stories. A hard watch.

To those MPs who forced the U-turn on disability cuts - thank you, but be in no doubt that the intention is still to get as many people of PIP as they can get away with, so stay vigilant and be prepared to rebel again if needed. the devil will, as ever, be in the detail.

I don't want his apologies. I want him to remember he's the leader of Labour and not a Reform tribute act. on.ft.com/3Gnr8Hn

People like Munira Mirza, who worked for, enabled or cheered on Boris Johnson, should consider their own responsibility for the rise of "celebrity" politicians & "consummate bluffers", who "care more about personal popularity than real achievements". 1/4 www.thetimes.com/comment/colu...

Never forget that while this government is prepared to ruin the lives of disabled people for the sake of £5bn, it is simultaneously lavishing far greater sums on pointless and destructive white elephants, of which this is just one.

Really interesting reporting from @morganj0nes.bsky.social - what sticks out most to me from this piece is how much the current success of Blue Labour stems from its willingness to provide a space for explicitly ideological discussion - something that’s lacking elsewhere in the party

Reminder Labour are legislating to punish impoverished ill/disabled citizens: ➡️ 46% of Daily Living PIP claimants at risk of losing benefits ➡️ 80%* of LCWRA/ESA claimants at risk of losing benefits ➡️ Only £424pcm (UC Basic Rate) + sanctions for jobseeking non-compliance #LocalElections

I was thinking this very same thing. It could be any one of us. Overnight your world changes and you have a disability where you need support from the state. You didn’t want it to happen but it did.
