If you are in the UK and would like to oppose the deplorable decision yesterday to cut international aid again, please message me your email address if you would like the full text of this email we will be sending to our MP. Please also share this post if you know anyone in the UK! Thank you.

youtu.be/D6ouyeycWk8?... What we want from Starmer when he meets Trump

www.theguardian.com/environment/... This doesn't appear to be.mentioned on the BBC at all.,...another good news story

BBC News - Keir Starmer: Pledge of two million extra NHS appointments met - BBC News www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Well mass media. How many days can you keep this as a top headline. What are your thoughts Chris Mason?

@labouruk.bsky.social When is the Labour govt going to address the problem of the UK media. The govt is getting slaughtered, including by the BBC. Time to use Alistair Campbell's tactics.

Reeves: The BBC article also links the wrongdoing to her redundancy, implying there was a compromise agreement linked to the investigation. Clearly untrue...the redundancies happened during the banking crisis. Appalling journalism

BBC News - Rachel Reeves and her expenses before she became an MP - BBC News www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... I hope Reeves sues over this. You imply throughout she is corrupt and then admit towards the end that the gifts were the norm and there was misunderstanding. 1/2

BBC News - Questions raised over Rachel Reeves's CV and expenses www.bbc.com/news/article... Desperate try to use a bit of inaccuracy, seemingly posted by staff, to make an outrageous claim that Reeves is corrupt and untrustworthy. That's the world our media now operates in, desperate for attention

Why do I only get posts which are critical of the UK government? How do I stop this or is BlueSky just turning into a politer and more intelligent version of X?

Just a heads up for those who think Nigel Farage will make a great PM….

For those who are talking reform up. Have a look at Tice and Ruperts backgrounds. vm.tiktok.com/ZGdAr4Xte/

1600 violent criminals released and pardoned on the whim of a fellow felon. Greatest democracy in the world?

Jess Phillips on Newsnight. Why can't all our politicians speak from the heart like this and be authentic. Stephen Kinnock, who I like, the night before was caught up in political speak and was savaged. Too many are worried about saying things right, rather than saying the right thing.

Seen a quote from Tony Blair describing populism today, it goes “Populism is exploiting a grievance rather than solving it, riding the anger rather than providing the answer”. For me the definition of Farage and the Tories.

There have, in fact, been around 4 inquires into grooming gangs, with 20 recommendations made. Under Starmer, there where thirty-five convictions. Farage and the right don't care about these facts, they just want to profit off the outrage, which some already pledging to donate money.

This episode is a must-listen. This whole topic is an extraordinary thing for political opportunists to be taking as an attack on Keir Starmer because he comes out as having acted with nothing but seriousness, urgency and most importantly with great success. These cases are tragic. #UKPolitics

Wow, the #Tories are hypocrites & liars! I didn't know that. 🙄

www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cj... Israel destroys the Syrian navy it says proudly. Fails to.mention what happened to the humans on the ships.

www.theguardian.com/world/live/2... Article shows where refugees have gone.... Germany over 700,000. UK not even on the list. Would anyone from Reform like to comment?
