INDEPENDENT: Robbed at birth #TomorrowsPapersToday

DAILY STAR: Poodles: an apology #TomorrowsPapersToday

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

Hey #auspol, who knows how to set up a petition? Thanks. 😊🤞🦋

There’s nothing we can do about the US - but there’s a lot we can do to make sure it doesn’t happen to us - especially in an election year. Time to step up 🙌🙌 #auspol

Some Australian native plants from our garden... and a local who comes to visit sometimes 🌱🐨🦘 #GardeningFeed #flowers #Australia #birds #kookaburra #wildlife #native #wildflowers

Don’t for a second think they won’t do the same to us. The only thing stopping them is us - and our positive and constructive engagement in our democracy #auspol

Good morning! I went and admired my beauties in the sun for a bit yes6, I was very pleased to see my eranthis had survived! Golden fleece Godfrey Owen Moses basket And my brand new teeny tiny snowdrop 😍 🌱

#holocaustmemorialday It's 80 years of Holocaust Memorial Day, and just 50 survivors left. The rise of the far-right in America and Europe is a real worry, especially as it looks like we've forgotten what #Genocide looks like 😪😪😪

North Shore, we binge watched #NorthShore with #JohnBradley #JoanneFroggart #ClaireLovering and #KirstySturgess it is absolutely brilliant, I'm hoping for a second series. Do watch it please 🙏 #TV

dear american friends australia day awards are upon us today the women with the fab t-shirt chatting to our PM is the fantastic australian of the year in '21 - grace tame - her sentiment is universal #auspol

If this is ‘back on track’ then it’s the wrong track #auspol

My latest in The Echo. The Albanese govt's reforms are not being given the credit they deserve. The focus group-driven mantra of a ‘do nothing’ govt cannot be sustained if our erstwhile political commentators bothered to look at what the govt has actually done #auspol www.echo.net.au/2025/01/main...

#auspol #Australia #Dutton

You know what bugs me about Dutton following the Trump playbook? Not the fact Dutton can't produce an original thought But the fact that we are a sovereign nation & we should not be following ANY country's playbook The role of PM is to be a leader, not a follower 🐝 #auspol

Do you have a family member, a friend, a colleague who still thinks the Liberal Party are the Liberal Party of old? We know they’re not. They’re now the Party of Rinehart & Dutton. How about sharing this article👇 with them? #auspol

If Albanese had said he'd be willing to negotiate with the Greens or the community independent MPs, Coorey would have said "desperate PM willing to negotiate ..." No criticism of Dutton though! 😏 #auspol #AusVotes2025

Sometimes you just have to giggle. What do you think made me a radical extreme communist? Working as a corporate lawyer? Advising Australia’s biggest companies at BCG? A strategic role at Australia’s then biggest employer, Wesfarmers? The actual radical extreme communists must be horrified! #auspol

#Brexit is still the worst decision the UK has ever made 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

#AustraliaDay2025 Happy Australia Day 🇦🇺 ❤️

This is the bravery I would have liked to see from the Democratic Senators who voted to pass the Laken Riley Act. I am SO disappointed in Gallego, Kelly, Ossoff, Peters, Rosen, Cortez Masto, Hassan, Warner, Slotkin, Fetterman. I am especially pissed off at Schumer. Y’all did not do the right thing!

Somebody yelled at me for posting about Ganymede instead of /the state of things/ last night. I know we’re (almost) all on the same page here, but a Bluesky without cute cats, science facts, and dumb jokes would be bad for everyone.

Madness

I’m sitting in this little eatery in Rome and people go into this bathroom and come out unscathed. I saw families and single people and nothing happened. Why are “we” so afraid of people going to the bathroom in USA?

That's weird, I'm hearing story after story of how your party spent 14 years increasing child poverty, doubling homelessness, trebling national debt, wasting £8.7bn on dodgy PPE, raising taxes to a record high and filling our rivers with shit.

Starting today, same-sex marriage is officially legalized in Thailand. It’s the first country in Southeast Asia to recognize marriage equality.

🌱 Winter Flowering Chimonanthus Praecox or Winter Sweet, is a beautiful smelling Winter flowering plant that gets overlooked for Sarcoccoca and Daphne, but it's a little star 🌟 in anyone's Garden, to give you something to see and smell in Winter.

Yesterday I went hunting for signs of spring. And I found the first flowers of the year. Winter aconites 🌱 nearly in flower. Really cheered me up.

🌱 I’m wondering, not sure why, if anyone ever tried to steal a corpse flower. Just imagine trying to get into a get away car with that in tow. I hope Carl Hiaasen has that in his next book with another Florida man.

“One source claims that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been targeted especially, because as “Spare”, Harry could be utilised to deflect attention away from more prominent royals.”

I respect and appreciate that Prince Harry pursued this case to bring accountability for unethical practices at Murdoch’s Sun newspaper. Once again, Murdoch has settled rather than go to trial to avoid all the lurid details coming out. www.bbc.com/news/article...

After Prince Harry victory time for #Leveson2 to show the criminality at the centre of our Police, Media and Politicians.

In a stunning victory for Harry, 40, the younger son of King Charles III, News Group Newspapers, publisher of The Sun and the now-defunct News of the World, also admitted it had intruded into the private life of his late mother, Princess Diana. www.usatoday.com/story/entert...

#Politics After the, Prince Harry victory, it's time for #Leveson2 no ifs or buts, there's been a cover up by the Police, the Media, and the Politicians.

A discovery: Beavers in Norfolk improved water quality by 84% compared to nearby control sites. Their dams act as natural filters, helping restore one of England's rare chalk streams. Could this be a game-changer ? Stephen McNair reports 🏞️🦫 #Conservation #WaterQuality #pollution

Left: Nigel Farage accuses the Liverpool police, the Home Secretary and the Prime Minister of 'covering up the truth' of what happened in Southport Right: Keir Starmer explains how there has not been a cover up

Really quite extraordinary to see demands for Starmer's resignation, in response to his being open about terrible mistakes that happened between 2017-2024, from the very politicians who were in charge during that time - sometimes at the depts that messed up. ~AA www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/01...

Twisted riotstarter and Southport shitstirrer.

Also preparing for tomorrow’s show. We’ll discuss Starmer’s inquiry into the Southport killings, Champions league, failures in treatment for eating disorders, Aldi dupes, and our #IMO is… airport expansion is essential for economic success! Discuss @bbc5live.bsky.social

Ignore all the squealing from the Tory media about Starmer's speech this morning, any mistakes happened under their watch. This horrendous attack happened a few weeks into Starmer's premiership, neither Labour nor Starmer are responsible for the failure of the systems in place.

“Southport was profitable for X, and the other platforms. We need to make sure that in future, it’s costly.” Watch our CEO @imranahmed.bsky.social testify before the UK Parliament’s Science, Innovation and Technology Committee. Full Testimony: www.parliamentlive.tv/Event/Index/...
