This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II. Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.

It’s been a long day, but in short, bullies ain’t shit! I don’t care what title you hold! This isn’t some long gone reality tv show or failed casino; it is war! How dare a draft dodging dumb dupe humiliate an ally & berate a brave man who has actually been on a battlefield for his people?!

Word of the day is ‘huff-snuff’ (16th century): a hectoring bully or braggart.

Is it prickly up on that fence, Nige?

Trump and Vance yesterday took me back to Netherley Comp when girls would try and befriend you just so they could belittle and bully you when they pretended to let you into their circle. People like that never change. Zelenskyy would be wise to never visit the White House again.

Happy March 🌷

Happy Global Scouse Day 🍲

The loss of CL football hit us hard, but let's be clear we are still feckin' minted. 🤣

The bald era. 👨‍🦲 😄

The Peaceful Hour was brilliant, the best I've ever seen on the main stage at the Royal Court. So relatable to 80s life, my book will be very similar. The language, too, was spot on. It's a must-see, and it ends next week. Go, do it, you will love it, don't be a soft lad by missing out! 😂

The Peaceful Hour time at The Royal Court 😁

These people are so thick... President Starmer... they just eradicated the Royal Family in one sentence. 😂

www.educatemagazine.com/abbots-lea-r... A couple of weeks ago Caitlin went back to her school for a reunion. Educate magazine have written an article about the visit. The photo is of those ex students who were head girls and head boy over the years. Caitlin is in the middle. ❤️

gizmodo.com/minnesota-gr... You are lying yourself if you use AI and submit but what made me laugh here is that there is a conspiracy from professors out to get him. Mate... you absolutely know that the only topics your professors are thinking about is their own research. 😂

Good morning 😂

Has anyone seen the monstrosity in Catherine Street. There is no consideration for pedestrians who have to cross at a high kerb then cross another high kerb for the cycle lane. The narrowing of the road, too, means a build-up of traffic behind buses drivers can't safely pass.

Statue of Raphael, Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool, 1920s and 2025 gif There since the opening of the gallery in 1877, the sculpture has suffered from weather erosion and pollution in the atmosphere over the last 148 years... Lots more information here www.liverpoolmuseums.org.uk/entrance-scu...

I met Olly on my way home 😻

Swan Lake was fantastic. It was the first production I saw at the Liverpool Empire as a girl, and it has always been my favourite. This adaptation by Matthew Bourne was fabulous and by far my favourite show of his. Go and see it if you can. 🤍🦢 🖤🦢🤍🦢🖤

The lady who checked my ticket said oooo nice bag 😂 it's a new one of mums I've never used and I always use her bags so she is always with me. ❤️

It's been an intense week of dance and me doing a spot of freelancing in Manchester so tonight's show of Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake was a last minute ticket but I couldn't ask for a better view. 😁

My current situation is that I'm on a bus because quite frankly I'm fucking sick of driving everyone around. 🙈😂 Wavertree High Street closed for maintenance work, so it's basically a magical mystery tour. 😁

In February 1991, Sesame Street aired a Twin Peaks parody! Here's Agent Cookie trying to discover why a small northwestern town is called 'Twin Beaks'. Ask the Log Bird...

Posting my embroidery so people can find me... 🐯 #embroidery #handembroidery

On Feb 21, 1965, Malcolm X was assassinated in New York City. A fearless advocate for Black empowerment, his speeches & activism challenged systemic racism, leaving a lasting impact on the fight for civil rights & global Black liberation. #StayCurious #Skystorians #DiveIntoDiscovery #BlackHistory

I'm seeing them next month why is every album a ten? ❤️

My mum was on antidepressants mainly for anxiety she loved comedy and we always watched the likes of Russ Abott, Freddie Starr and Cannon and Ball. It didn't really stop her being anxious if I'm honest. What she needed was support to get off meds and therapy to control her negative thoughts.

Richard Young's 1978 portrait of the Jam outside Centre Point. Now its wildly expensive, lavishly beige apartments, a private club and residents' "wellness spa". But there's a framed print of this in the lobby, which is something.

Remembering record label owner, TV presenter, nightclub manager and music impresario Tony Wilson (1950-2007), born #OTD in Pendleton, Salford. Nicknamed ‘Mr Manchester’ for his work in promoting the city’s culture. (Mural by Akse).

Who would have thought that the Daily Star would be the voice of reason. I mean the world is also turned upside down because Johnson and Cleavely are speaking more sense on the issue than anyone in the Labour Party.

#OnThisDay, 19 Feb 1963, American writer Betty Friedan's book 'The Feminine Mystique' is published in the USA. It's widely credited as starting second wave feminism, and identified social expectations of femininity as a driver of women's unhappiness. #WomenInHistory #History #WomensHistory 🗃️

The Lion, the Witch and a Wardrobe time at the Liverpool Empire. Hannah sat in front of me. 🦁🧙‍♀️🗄😁

Akin to the Nazi's burning books. 😔

I was behind a car on Ullet Rd earlier that overshot the opposite lane and a bus just missed him. The female driver he pulled up next too got out of her car and gave him a mouthful. But what made me laugh was her car airfreshner that was hanging up, it said positive vibes only... clearly not. 😂
