FACT OF THE DAY. 22 February 1879. Frank W. Woolworth opened his 1st “Five and Ten Cent Store” in Utica, New York, USA. It sold goods at low prices. It was the first brand to go global, opening over 3,000 stores across the world. The 1st British store was on Church Street in Liverpool.

I'm sure he cares greatly what history will say. But since he genuinely doesn't know anything about any of it, he just lives in the-immediate-moment. Half-way through his last term, discussing nuclear weapons, he was surprised to learn that Britain was also a nuclear power. I know that to be true.

Just over a year ago the Russian opposition leader, Alexei Navalny, died in prison in Russia. We wrote and demoed this song in the last few days and dedicate it to his memory and his cause. Neil and Chris x #PetText #navalny #freerussia #slavaukraini

Trump wants to land-grab in Ukraine— — just like Greenland, Gaza, Canada, Panama. He wants to grab other people’s land and natural resources all under the guise of “protection” and “development” of “the west” under his care. It’s pure mafia imperialism.

“It’s extremely odd to lecture Europe on the subject of free speech & democracy at the same time as they’re cuddling Mr Putin. In Mr Putin’s Russia, people who disagree with him disappear or die or flee the country, or, at a statistically unlikely level, fall out of high windows somewhere in Moscow”

If you stand very still right now, you can feel it. A slow awakening, reaching, uncurling, every tiny thing flickering back to life. The birds are singing a little louder, and the light from longer days stretches into all the shadows. Everything lies just ahead of us, around the next corner.

#Sudan: As RSF intensifies attacks around El Fasher and tightens its siege on the city and Zamzam camp, we are deeply concerned for the safety of our staff and the hundreds of thousands already suffering under shelling and starvation in Sudan’s largest displacement camp.

I'm not easily shocked, but the sight of individuals cheering on the richest man in the world as he takes away vital aid to the most desperate people on this Earth has shocked me. There are good people. There are bad people. Then there's Elon Musk and his empathy devoid flesh failure followers.

And there was Biden insisting he was Israel’s greatest friend ever. What an old fool. Bibi is a monster with no loyalty to anyone but his own power. Biden should have actually taken a moral stance and stopped Bibi’s war crimes and genocide… instead of being the awkward foreplay to this horror.

NEW: Trump describes Gaza as a “demolition site” whilst sitting next to the indicted war criminal who demolished it. He then explains he wants to clear Gaza of Palestinians and find them somewhere else to live. Presumably to hand Gaza to Israel. It’s US-backed ethnic cleansing.

If UK news shows are going to give Nigel Farage a platform to spout this absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it We cannot allow them to rewrite history. If you agree share this FACT CHECK widely youtu.be/MUrf7addcTA?...

I actually think this is a big, big problem. The media has completely defaulted to using images of boat arrivals to illustrate ANY story related to migration. The sub-heading clearly states the migrants in question largely came here on visas, not boats. I've seen this happen over & over again.
