There are some days when the news can be overwhelming and leave you feeling sad and afraid. Today is one of them. Try to remember that the good in the world has always outnumbered the bad, stroke a cat and enjoy the sunshine x (Pic @imageplotter.bsky.social)

Translation: Targetting actual foreign criminals is hard work, so Trump's troops have detainee working immigrants. They do tough, low paid jobs that US citizens refuse. Rich people soon notice when these roles aren't being done and the very richest of them have text Trump to say they're angry.

I may not always love you But long as there are stars above you You never need to doubt it I'll make you so sure about it...

What did immigrants ever do for Los Angeles, besides settle it, name it and work to turn it into one of the world's great metropolises?

This is an image of British Commandos on a approaching Sword Beach on D-Day, 6th June 1944. War is a horrific thing; these men left their loved ones to enter its hellish cauldron. Some never returned. We remember their immense bravery and sacrifices so that they should never be necessary again.

June is LGBT Pride Month. Love is love. Be your fabulous selves. A good piece here for any of my friends that want to learn about its history: lordslibrary.parliament.uk/pride-in-the-u…

Quite the shiner that Musk was sporting today; surely Trump could have lent him some make-up?

The X-Ray from Trump's last medical just leaked #TACO

Today is #NationalBiscuitDay - what biscuits are politicians most similar to: Keir Starmer = Malted milk - not as popular as they used to be Angela Rayner = hob nob - often in hot water but emerge unscathed Lee Anderson = party rings - turn up at a lot of different parties

There's no place for gender ambiguity in Shakespeare!

They are not considering the offer; they are laughing at it

Is there a big red button on his desk that randomly raises tarrifs whenever he hits it mid tantrum? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Why would Walmart need to eat the tarrifs when Trump said they weren't being paid by Americans? Was he lying?

First rule of MAGA: It's only OK when we do it:

Scorn in the USA...

40 years ago a horrific fire at Bradford City's Valley Parade ground claimed the lives of 56 people. It took less than four minutes for a small fire to become a raging inferno. Warnings had been ignored.

A Leo from Chicago who annoys Republicans you say?

Donald Trump is no longer the most powerful American in the world... #LeoXIV

80 years ago Britain declared a national holiday to celebrate the surrender of Nazi forces in Europe. Today we celebrate their victory and remember the countless sacrifices they made to deliver it. The London Museum has this excellent piece about that day: londonmuseum.org.uk/collections/lo…

The designs for a memorial to Queen Elizabeth II have been revealed. Each would see a new bridge across the lake in St. James' Park. My favourite is this from @JLG_London - its understated elegance is most apt. You can see all the designs here: competitions.malcolmreading.com/queenelizabeth…

Wishing a happy Cinco de Mayo to my friends celebrating in Mexico and the United States today x

The 8th May has been marked as VE Day since before Trump was born. VE stands for Victory in Europe. As for the First World War, the idea that some Yank who refused to serve in the military, will command people around the world not to call it Rembrance Day is laughable. Sod off.

The message from yesterday is clear: Vote Reform, get Tories

"Do you even own a black suit?"

Turns out that Trump's strategy is asking Putin nicely to stop invading Ukraine. Amazing this hasn't already resulted in peace.

Some days the squeeze is tighter than others!

“The game's afoot: follow your spirit, and upon this charge, cry ‘God for Harry, England, and Saint George!’” Wishing all my followers a very happy Saint George’s Day x

If you're wondering why so many right wing individuals are saying hateful things about the late Pope, the reason is simple: he told them that they should care about other people.

If you know, you know

May he rest in peace after a lifetime of service x

I'm not saying that Vance has angered God, but if he offers to pray for you, it might be best to politely decline

Happy Easter!

I want to wish all my friends around the world who are celebrating Easter a glorious weekend. For Christians, Easter is a time to reflect on the gift of Christ and his teachings to our world. For example, when asked which was the most important of the commandments, Jesus pointed to two...

When Trump said he'd stop people entering the country, I'm not sure this is what he had in mind...

The Good Friday Agreement was signed 27 years ago today. It was an act of delicate diplomacy, which delivered peace and security to a part of our country where those qualities had long been absent. Those achievements should never be taken for granted.

MAGA: Look at his luxurious clothes, tailored from the finest cloths. Rest of the world: WTF? He's butt naked.

The stages in a Donald Trump deal: 1. Lie about something being a problem 2. Do something to "fix" it, which causes an actual problem 3. Say you won't reverse what you've done 4. Reverse what you've done 5. Say "Art of the deal"
