Despite what the press tells us, the government is very busy, often doing popular things. But you wouldn’t know it from the press coverage eastangliabylines.co.uk/politics/gov...

Something I learnt on SquirrelTok - 'squirrel' is the second hardest English word for Francophones to master after 'Worcestershire'. What they might not know is that the English word actually comes from old French 'esquireul', so they really have themselves to blame. 📸 Michael Hirst

Great stuff - that's exactly right. Trump is dangerous... and the UK needs to rebuild with the rest of Europe as quickly as possible, for defence, trade, opportunity, environment, standards and protection of our democracy and values from a hostile Trump/Musk-led US.

Dear BlueSkyers. Sadly I'm getting many reports of scammers pretending to be me here, incl messaging people with 'investments' . Pls share/help me spread word that, as you know, THIS IS MY ONLY BLUE SKY account (proved as my handle is an official MoneySavingExpert one). All others are scams

A SHIT Valentine’s Day led me to start my greetings card company. Got dumped by BF for whom I’d made this card. Spoilers: he was bad for me. (The “back story” is on the back of the card. Card blank) The rest is history… Now a silly Love card for YOUR honey bunny! #bsnm #valentines #artsky #bunny

I was recently given two wine boxes which I have incorporated into these two bedside tables for my son. The outside was made from free strip wood from packing cases. There’s no such thing as waste wood! #craft #furniture #upcycle

We're constantly fed a narrative of unlimited numbers of potential immigrants. The truth is, by a long way, most people stay put. And if they do move, they move within the borders of their country. And if they do leave, they go next door. And if policy allows it, they tend to go back again, too.

Oh great we get to hear from a Labour mp about all the deportations Labour is doing. In response to three people’s death this is what we get. Give me strength. They even asked if ID cards would stop drownings?? IMMIGRANTS NEED ID TO WORK & ACCESS SERVICES ALREADY #r4today

As a family when we catch a cold we tend to name it after the family member who first caught it and passed it on. Does anyone else do this? I’m currently fighting off Jack’s cold. Maybe we could name them nationally like we do storms? #cold

When I left X, I left 260000ish followers who cared about the NHS. This is bad because the NHS is in a state of emergency and EveryDoctor has just launched an important petition. If you can see this, please could you follow me and share this? 🤞💙🚨

Honestly, fuck it. I give up. I would LOVE people to support and share posts from small creators: artists, writers, comedians, poets, film-makers… everyone who is not part of some big corporate organisation, people who are trying to make a go of it on their own. If you don't want to, fine 🤷‍♂️
