The BBC news just said people in LA were protesting against "Donald Trump's immigration policy" and then "a crack down on undocumented migrants". no, the policies might be awful but it was the egregious use of force by police, ICE and other authorities that promoted it @bbcnews-uk-rss.bsky.social

Really glad I've not managed to pick up the name of this weather presenter any time this week, as I'm obsessed with whether she needs a wee or is just struggling with standing on camera... Now she seems to have a too-tight skirt on and I'm crossing my legs for how uncomfortable she looks!

I was lucky enough to know Lyra via Twitter back in the day. This is a lovely tribute.

I see #bbcpn are doing a classic one point of view NIMBY piece on solar farms. Where's the balance? @politicsnorth.bsky.social

If you are wondering why in a contest taking place on #IDAHOBIT and where several of the artists are queer and many of the fans certainly are, no one has a pride flag in this parade, this is why: #Eurovision By @richmondbridge.bsky.social escinsight.com/2025/05/16/w...

🇪🇸 RTVE has shared the following message right before their #Eurovision 2025 grand final broadcast.

This morning @greenparty.org.uk has called for the EHRC’s harsh and ill-considered guidance on single-sex spaces to be withdrawn. As it stands the guidance puts trans people at risk of discrimination & violence, and clearly hasn’t been drawn up with trans people’s input. I’ll be pushing for better.

Can we get this on a shirt? 👕

For some reason I'm taking it really personally that ballet slippers are back in fashion

Someone please tell Mary from #Gogglebox that Newsround hasn't gone anywhere and is on at 8:30am every school day

The Supreme Court is due to rule tomorrow on the Equality Act. But it didn’t hear from a single trans person. It’s vital that people are in the room when their rights and freedoms are on the line. www.thenational.scot/news/2508432...

Shout out to all the TV producers who think Hull is politically interesting! I will appear on any show, put the Greens on instead of Reform!

Does anyone know what this Bitcoin scam is I've seen on Facebook? Asked an acquaintance if she'd been hacked, the reply came 'someone tried to make a new account in my name'; my comment was deleted half an hour later...

Cuoricini is a little traditional Eurovision for the recent history of things Italy has sent to ESC. Very catchy though ❤️ #SanRemo

Here for my first proper San Remo experience and I was very concerned to see it comes with death stairs

Carla Denyer 👏 doing 👏 the 👏 work 👏

Just saw a comment on Facebook that we should put the school curriculum back to how it was in 2000. "Shouldn't be too difficult to do, the files must still exist, just send them to the printers".

I knew it. This isn’t the Labour party. Please, if you believe in social justice and want to fight the shift to the Right, please join and vote for @TheGreenParty 💚💚💚 .

On 22 January, GB News presenter Josh Howie repeated a homophobic slur linking the LGBTQ+ community to paedophilia. This is offensive, wrong and unlawful. Join me and @GoodLawProject to file a complaint to Ofcom :point_down: action.goodlawproject.org/ofcom-stop-g...

When the Star War has a Wookie using a metal detector and it just entirely takes you out of the serious Jedi world. Absolutely hysterical at the equipment being used on Brendock now. #StarWars #TheAcolyte #ThatDudeFromSquidGame #AndTrinityFromTheMatrix

Unions and school leaders have said that Ofsted's new 'report card' will be worse than the current system. The Green Party has always been clear - Ofsted doesn't work for students, teachers or parents and should be scrapped in favour of a more collaborative model.

I remember when Tina Daheley used to do Newsbeat on Radio 1, now she's presenting the Six O Clock News. Brilliant 😁
