I do wonder what those who support Reform UK and have long complained of “globalist” agendas, or complained of Labour activist “interference” in the US, would make of this.

“The Bluesky Safety account said that the social media service is removing accounts that are impersonating other people and those squatting on handles.” Good move @safety.bsky.app - very appreciated. 👏👏👏

"In 37 years in the intelligence profession, I've never seen the world in a more dangerous state." The combination of Russia & Trump makes for a dangerous environment for the UK and Europe. We need to stick together now more than ever. 🇬🇧🇪🇺

“For over a decade, Twitter held a unique place in the online world. While it never matched Facebook in terms of user numbers, its cultural and political influence was unparalleled.” Obituaries already coming in I see.

"Don't Engage, Just Block" is having a real effect and you can tell it's frustrating the bots, chuds and trolls. They're in my comments trying everything they can to get people there to react -- and no one's biting. And then I swing by and chuck 'em into the cornfield and that's that.

I'm pleased to be among UK journalists to have signed this open letter. In recent months, Twitter has changed to the point of no longer being adequately useful for journalism. I'll be shifting my focus to Bluesky and other platforms instead.

I still don’t understand why Labour is cutting the winter fuel payments back in this stark manner No problem at all with wealthy pensioners (I’m almost at that age now) who don’t need it not receiving it obviously But for only those on Pension Credit to receive it .. is wrong

I’ve seen enough to make a call: Bluesky is going to be a legit competitor to Twitter. Sweet.

It's very interesting seeing all these X accounts being deactivated showing up as people unfollowing me. While I am still active on X, I am trying to be more active on here, and at the bare minimum will be crossposting everything from X to BlueSky.
