About bloomin' time!!!!!!!!

With all these legal changes in the Trans world, I'm wondering what could this mean for changing rooms in leisure centres and clothing stores 🤔🤔🤔🤔 It's huge and potentially very confusing....

Massive Russian attack on Odesa last night. Two people killed. Fifteen more people injured. Residential buildings, private homes, a supermarket, a school and vehicles damaged. Russian terror on Ukrainian civilians continues.

Southern Water boss says people need to use less water The only industry that charges people more for selling less. Everyday story of England's water companies - Leaks unplugged, no new reservoirs, sewage dumped, mega dividends, customers fleeced. Nationalise.

Mark Carney, second only to Hugh Grant as the best Prime Minister we never had...

Tony Blair is literally being paid by a man with one of the highest carbon footprints on the planet - Larry Ellison. The founder of Oracle is his biggest funder & these techsolutionist remarks have to be seen for what they are: tech lobbying www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

Makes perfect sense to me 😄😄😄😄

It’s these right-wing so-called think tanks such as the Heritage Foundation and 55 Tufton Street that need to be dismantled, not the EU, ECHR and the civil/political/social/universal human rights and freedoms we have enjoyed since the post 1945 period.

Pope Francis dedicated his life to the marginalised, displaced and dispossessed. A rare voice for humanity, he spent his final days on this earth calling for peace. Let his enduring legacy — of empathy, courage and kindness — inspire us to build a more humane world for all.

Canada is ranked 1 in education, 3 in safety, 4 in justice, 4 in overall best country. We are not a broken country. We have not suffered a lost decade. Our existence is in the balance. Vote.

Whenever I read threads or comments about Labour going further on UK EU relations I marvel at the assumption that the EU in this situation will simply say of course.

GB News howler monkey June Slater here inferring that inhaling bleach as children may well have kept colds and flus at bay She should be charged with Domestos terrorism… or at the very least with a bleach of the peace

Hello, I'm Marine, I need to collect 5000€ to pay my lawyer fees as I was the victim of a TrashCash scam, by wanting to help someone "in the need" (fake) and I am a student. I have not enough money to pay my studies, already. I'm counting on you. Thanks a lot! Marine 😘🙏 👉 gofund.me/14fa5775 👈

Just listening to this Grieg piano concerto on Classic FM Hall of Fame, and decided that I prefer the Eric Morecambe version! youtu.be/uMPEUcVyJsc?...

I’m running the Lee Valley Velopark Half Marathon on 26th April for ADHD UK. And for my dad. It’s his birthday three days after the race. He would’ve been 74. He died cut off, forgotten and alone at 54. Like too many others. ADHD isn’t well understood. I want to change that. Help me.

In the traditional Urbi et Orbi message, which was read out on his behalf on Easter Sunday, Francis called on world leaders to help those in need and to work towards peace. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

Another editorial from this week’s @bmj.com. By Kate Pickett and David Taylor Robinson. A wealth tax in the UK could raise £60bn a year to tackle widening inequalities. Perhaps we can no longer afford NOT to do it? Link here: www.bmj.com/content/389/... #MedSky #Inequalities #SDOH #WealthTax

Easter blessings to all my Sunny Sky friends 🕊🕊🕊🕊

I’ve mentioned Reform a few times about this, but it goes beyond party politics. Our democracy should be constantly changing, evolving & improving. Somehow, along the way the rules surrounding those we elect to parliament has not. Please read, sign & share✍🏽 petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

April 16, 2019 Remind me who the United CEO was again...?

@alexhh.bsky.social As we head to the weekend with loved ones, please spare a thought for the children of Myanmar. So sad to see so many dead and others left with their lives destroyed Please help and donate if you can and share as widely as possible www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding...

The White House has kicked global wire services Reuters and Bloomberg out of the permanent press pool. Trump isn’t keen on scrutiny.

“Starmer must not trade away our food standards as part of tariff negotiations. We are as indignant about American animal welfare as JDVance seems to be about the control of anti-abortion demonstrations outside UK clinics” So many reasons to focus on the EU, not the US. Letter of the week The Week

Well Skybabies #Butterflies & #NewFunThread just seen this in another place & I rather like the look of it. What do you all think? @colonelescargot.bsky.social @pollyticks.bsky.social @frenchie.bsky.social @sirtom.bsky.social @nonnie.bsky.social @socialistdawn.bsky.social @pguythompson.bsky.social

@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social Can't find any other BBC news channels on Bluesky 🤔🤔🤔

🚨Some major errors & misleading claims from experienced presenter Nick Robinson on BBC Radio 4 Today, when discussing British Steel with Treasury Minister James Murray I hope these are corrected on tomorrow's programme, and Robinson sticks to the facts in future. Here's what he got wrong... 🧵

#HolyWeek: Linda Hoskins, an Edinburgh-based artist, paints the message of our value and identity to God we see when Mary washes the feet of Jesus. youtube.com/watch?v=o6KV...

Wow. But also, good!

68% It's getting damn close to the magic 70% that even the most cautious claim is the tipping point.

Some good news. Advanced skin cancer patients are being fast-tracked into the NHS’ revolutionary vaccine trial. This is a stage 2 trial but patients have already seen tumours shrunk. It’s part of the NHS’ groundbreaking Cancer Vaccine Launch Pad which is developing vaccines for different cancers.

More authoritarian behaviour: threatening to use regulatory and economic pressure on a television station which broadcasts political dissent.

AOC: Donald Trump is a criminal—convicted on 34 felony counts of fraud. He is lying, and he is manipulating the stock market too. At his best, he enriches himself, the billionaires who back him, and the members of Congress who trade with him. Not you. Not me. Not the people.

Voters want Keir Starmer to focus on rebuilding trade ties with EU, poll reveals
