So this is my second American general who wants to be my friend on FB this week alone I’m thinking that, god forbid, anything happens with UK and Russia, I just direct message them. Lucky me 👀

Helluva lot going on right now but I’ve just discovered that husband has eaten my chocolate and shit is about to get real! 😡😡😡🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Ok, sorry, but this is pretty funny. Farage and GB News will be spinning the wheels here

I’m sorry but this isn’t getting enough attention. When RFK Jr. was asked about a young child who died of measles in Texas, he responded “It's not unusual. We have measles outbreaks all the time.” This is the first Measles death in the US in 10 years.

Every news outlet reporting Elon Musk's comment about accidentally canceling Ebola prevention efforts and quickly restoring them should also say they haven't been restored, they're still canceled, the outbreak-fighting teams are dismantled, the money is gone www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

You can’t make this stuff up. Trump supporters spent the past few years obsessing over an apparent sex trafficking cabal in charge of our country. And yet one of the first things Trump seems to have done, apparently, is push to get the Tates, charged with sex trafficking, released from Romania.

Spanish Flu killed 50-100 million.

This will be seen in Europe and the UK as an egregious attack on the rule of law and human dignity, aided and abetted by elements of the current US administration, who evidently see this as fan service.

Just in case anyone has any remaining doubt about the contempt in which the Trump govt holds women, and accusations of sexual assault, note that his govt's pressure on the Romanian govt has secured the travel of the Tate brothers to the US this morning. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c7...

The tech bros have all dropped to their knees to worship the orange cock This is really troubling

Ukraine was easily Johnson's finest achievement. Obviously he's now decided to torch it, like the feckless vacuity he so truly is.

This 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

And look at the company it's keeping.

This post comes long AFTER half of Trump’s cabinet instructed their employees not to respond to the email. So who do they work for?

BREAKING: The Monitors were just hacked at the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to display an AI video of Trump licking Elon Musk’s toes. The caption over it read: “LONG LIVE THE REAL KING.”

Argh that’s nice. This bloke decided all this from me writing a review on the local Thai! Always American soldiers. Every time 😂

"sorry the President isn't here, he's just waiting for the bronzer to dry"

Starting the week the right way.

Also, 4 in 5 did not. The AfD underperformed polling, meaning the fear of "shy" AfD voters in DKs did not materialise. Maybe most important: despite terror attacks, Musk & JD Vance's support, and a river of dark money and AI disinformation, the AfD *lost* a couple of %pts in 2025. I'll take it.

Dan Hodges of the Daily Mail, occasionally gets it spot on. 👍

Another Banksy style classic.

First they came for the federal employees, And I did not speak out, Because I was not a federal employee ... You know the rest of the poem. Act accordingly.

Isn't that supposed to be the bit you *don't* say out loud?

Kinda destroys the whole dictator attack on Zelensky 😂

Had good exchanges on the phone this weekend with Emmanuel Macron and Keir Starmer. We discussed our unflinching support to Ukraine, financially and militarily. We shared updates on our contacts with US partners and discussed plans for the defence and security of our continent.

Hey everyone. Just say “no.” Not on our watch. Don’t capitulate or obey in advance. Take a stand against the tyrant, against fascism. Let’s be smart, careful and and get involved at a grassroots level. We have to do something. It’s truly up to us. If you haven’t joined Indivisible, please do.

Keep at it

It's refreshing to have a PM who is a statesman after years of the tory clown show.

*New* campaign action on Marks & Spencer - any help getting the first few signatures going would be greatly appreciated! actionstorm.org/petitions/ma... We're sharing this first on Bluesky as this is so much friendlier (and troll free, so far at least!) than any of the other platforms right now!

Boycott American products. Boycott anyone that advertises on GB News. Simple direct action that hits them where it hurts. Financially. Express your disgust with your wallet.

Is like “2 for 1” at Tesco’s? What a fucking idiot!!!

The Trump-Vance-Musk regime is not only undermining democracy in the US. It is laying the foundation for undermining democracies around the world. The emerging battle will be global democracy vs. a global oligarchy. The US is emerging on the side of global oligarchy.

It would appear that our son is entertaining fellow travellers on the London Underground…. (I don’t think these are even his pipes!) #Scotland #ScotlandRugby #MusicSky

Dear UK employers, I would not be trying to argue that failure to respond to an email amounted to a deemed resignation.

This is real. And I have never seen the competence, morals, standards and communication strategy of any government collapse so fast.

DOGE staffer Edward “Big Balls” Coristine is the grandson of Valery Martynov - a “former” KGB spy. That’s right, one of Elon Musk’s young cyber criminals — related to a former KGB spy, and who seemingly did not have to undergo a background check — now has unprecedented access to…

As Maya Angelou has so eloquently stated: "When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time. This is who they are. Believe them.

Not a bad day
