We've worked with MPs to table a motion to end prayers in Parliament. Find out more: www.secularism.org.uk/news/2025/02... Ask your MP to sign the motion: www.secularism.org.uk/mp-letter-pa...

When something is a success, people like to associate themselves with it. So it's noticeable how quiet the Brexiters are. inews.co.uk/opinion/brex...

⏰The Govt have under 2 weeks to block the bailout of Thames Water. 📑25,000 people have signed the petition to take Thames Water into public ownership. #Thames has failed and shouldn't be rewarded with a £3 billion bailout. Agree? Sign our petition tinyurl.com/yxht3p94

My reflection on Jimmy Carter is that quietly living by example turns out, very sadly, to be rather less effective than one may hope. But still better to do it than not.

After leaving it to the absolute last minute to travel to elderly family to avoid spreading seasonal coughs and colds, son has just been lavishly sick over bedroom carpet. Haven’t broken the present situation to him yet. Mostly posting to BlueSky for my own record keeping. #christmas2024

My wife is now writing an apologetic letter from Santa explaining that he delivered the presents to the wrong house. Tomorrow morning will be interesting….

So, no panic BUT we’ve driven across the country to be with family this Christmas and just realized we left the kids presents at home… I think, just front it out and tell them they were bad this year. Right?

Let Christmas begin! #muppets #Oxford

Big fact-check on lots of the immigration lies being amplified today by the usual grifters. Please boost.

This month was a big one for Oxford’s Familial Hypercholesterolaemia group as after 3 years of operation we have reached the milestone of 10,000 patients reported! Based on statistics from the British Heart Foundation, our group’s work has prevented 260 heart attacks and saved 31 lives. 🙌

Looking forward to the #oxfordwinefestival today. A friend’s son has reminded us that wine is strong drink, and we should limit ourselves to just half a pint of each wine. Everything in moderation, eh?

Do you guys ever just think about how unreasonably amazing the 2017 Ducktales show was? More than I ever think about the fucking Roman Empire, that's for sure

Another fantastic #tfnation comes to an end (for me anyway)! Special thank you to the lovely @nickroche.bsky.social for the chat about the future of #Scarenthood. Where there’s money to be made, there’s hope! 🤞
