🧵Occasionally I do pick up some ridiculously priced CD's in charity shops. How much time have you got? What have I missed in the past. I have to. When you see what some cost these days. Possibly why people use streaming services? Also many artists are not available. 1/

🧵In the early hours I surfed the music stations on DAB in the UK. Virtually every one was similar. Run perhaps 3 big conglomerates. I have a seriously wide taste in music but I either found only the few I do dislike. The rest were narrow casting the same songs repedatively. 1/

🧵Most state help is poor. You would not choose to be on it if you truly had a choice. If you get basic help you truly struggle. Most only survive. Many who work are managing. These days on welfare or working they only get by if they are part of a household where 1/

Dear World, I’m an American. I apologize to you all that we put a thoroughly bad, cruel, ignorant madman back in the White House. Many, many Americans apologize. Don’t appease him, don’t coddle him. Stand up to him & punch back at his stupidity. Best, An Anti-Trump American

Forgive me if I don’t get excited about a ‘theme park’ in Bedfordshire. What the theme is isn’t reported … doubtless something from our US cultural masters

Reminder: Tariffs aren't paid by other countries. They're eventually paid by us at the check out line. And they're regressive — taking a higher percentage out of the paychecks of working people than out of the wealthy.

🧵In general just suppose we do as Trump wishes and drop the mark up on goods he wants to sell to us...and we benefit on what we export to the US. OK. We may need items like steel. Oil. Parts that go into items like cars and technology but naively I cannot think of...1/

Some weeks ago I mentioned arson incidents on my town. It's gone quiet and there is no news on whether those responsible have been apprehended. That was drug related. Now we are having random fires happening. The latest 24 hours ago behind our retail area which is very near me.

Starmer ducks out of waiting for impact evidence before continuing the welfare cuts. Basically I am continuing on our way. Yes they talk of young people. Prospective workers but people now in retirement and on benefits that often are a pathway to other help. Buys medical aids 1/

Our analysis showed up to 400,000 people would be pushed into poverty by the Government's proposed disability benefits cuts. This was put to PM Keir Starmer by @debbieabrahamsmp.bsky.social at today's Liaison Committee. He said the cuts would 'change behaviour'. Watch below 🔽 1/2
