We are arms dealers to terrorists.

✍️ New report shows large skills gap in Yorkshire, Humber and North East De-industrialisation and lower attainment levels have let the region fall behind in productivity and economic growth By Casey Peyton @caseypeyton.bsky.social

I welcome the agreement on our 16th package of sanctions. The EU is clamping down even harder on circumvention by targeting more vessels in Putin’s shadow fleet and imposing new import and export bans. We are committed to keep up the pressure on the Kremlin.

#MAGAMorons - when you know you're supporting a liar, conman, rapist, and convicted felon, and you do it because he's just as hateful a human being as you are. #SexualPredatorFelonRacistFascistLiarTRUMP

Yes. "A more intense global effort is needed to achieve the goals of the agreement and stem the #biodiversity crisis." phys.org/news/2025-02...

One of my proudest moments: seeking out Marcel Proust’s family flat in the Boulevard Malesherbes in Paris,1976. It was now an office. Elderly lady in next room: ‘Who is it, Marie?’ Marie, sitting at her desk, looking at me: ‘No one, Suzanne. Just a Proustian.’ A Proustian — me.

IMPORTANT! EveryDoctor is running briefings for politicians in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland next week about the situation in the NHS (/HSC). It's so important that we engage with politicians across the UK to push for patient safety and for staff to be supported. Please invite your...

‘We’re in a crisis’: Idris Elba calls for more action on youth violence in UK

If you fight on the far right’s terrain, you will lose. Parroting their anti-immigration rhetoric only legitimises them, & people will always choose the original over the copy. Defend human rights, stand by our principles & fight for a socialist vision — that’s how we will win!

If this were Just Stop Oil, there'd have been dozens of arrests, furious denunciations in the billionaire press and, perhaps, long jail sentences. Farmers have a right to protest, and the police respect it. Other people, it seems, not so much. The real #TwoTierPolicing www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

When you see the zealots screaming against DEI remember these are just a few of the things covered by it.

Trump fires boards of U.S. military service academies The president said that schools like West Point had been invaded by so-called “woke” ideology www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

A former UK diplomat has exposed conduct that “crossed the threshold into complicity with war crimes.” From Yemen to Gaza to Sudan, UK arms sales have enabled atrocities. We need an independent investigation & those responsible must be held accountable. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

🚑 Time to recognise paramedics as an official emergency service. Paramedics face immense stress yet lack official emergency service recognition. It’s time for fair rights, benefits and retirement protections.

The clear pro-Israeli bias of mainstream western 'news' media is perpetuating genocide, enabling ethnic-cleansing & collaborating with those who are routinely perpetrating crimes against humanity. The proprietors, editors & journalists involved should hang their heads in shame & be prosecuted.

At the global security conference in Munich, Trump's Nazi America is seen as a threat to global peace.

Nothing to add 😂

😂

Cuba should end the lease on Guantanamo Bay & seek trade deals with Canada & Mexico. .

It's like a plague of locusts promising to come back and make things right again

"Green MPs and Peers will be pressing the government to end this subsidy scandal and invest people’s money where it will make a real difference to them." @adrianramsay.bsky.social on the Government's plan to further subsidise Drax power station.

Donald would flip his wig if he saw it.

The media puts the words in our mouths. Fix the media, fix it the toxic narrative.

🚨NEW RESEARCH🚨 Closer ties with the EU could deliver growth of up to 2.2%. Clawing back up to half of the damage caused by Brexit. Delivering double the impact of a UK-US trade deal, according to the govt's own analysis. And all within Starmer's red lines. www.thetimes.com/article/8423...

If Starmer can bring the UK growth of 1.5 - 2% by closer ties to the EU but not rejoining SM or CU or the EU I think that would be a phenomenal result. And avoid more Farage riots. Double whammy. Then we have time to see how it works out ahead of firmer commitments.

As being “free to make our own trade deals” has delivered the square root of jack shit and, as Brexiters still can’t tell us what EU regulations they want to scrap, closer alignment with the EU should be a no-brainer. Great work @bestforbritain.bsky.social www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Although it’s clearly becoming more prevalent to show yourself to be a nazi bottom feeder there are still some out there that like to fly a little under the radar, and we can’t have that. This photo shows some symbols that may be worn that you may or may not be aware of: Let’s punch Nazis 💯

Another year around the Sun completed. Thank you for all the love and encouragement you’ve shown me. I’m still in India. The journey goes on…x

Trump’s cancelled the Blind Foundation funding. My BiL who lives in Fl with my sister is having injections every 9 weeks for MD to stop him going blind. This isn’t covered by Medicare etc. as it costs $3,300. He will now go blind as will many others. Let that sink in all you MAGA assholes.

#USA: "We urge the US government to immediately resume funding of critical humanitarian and health aid, either through rescinding relevant orders freezing funding or expanding the current narrow humanitarian waiver to cover all necessary health and humanitarian programs." - @avrilbenoit.bsky.social

Billy Connolly is 82, damn he still looks in his 50s. If this it what being hilarious and wise does to you I’m going to try and go down that road.

A fitting tribute to our new South African president.

Leon Skum's goal is to remove all regulation from the USA so that business is no longer accountable for its crimes. 1/3

Taking myself back to the 1st time I met my baby at the dogs trust; the best flower I ever did see; a touch of grey to showcase his gentleman’s face.

105,000 new homes in England could be built in highest-risk flood zones. This is crazy, going on for years. Builders profit, people can't easily resell, get insurance. Lives threatened, pressure on flood defences, drainage, emergency services. Deregulation will make it worse.

True.

This January was the hottest on record and people across the globe are feeling the devastating impacts of the climate crisis. But the far-right, bankrolled by the ultra-wealthy, are organising to destroy climate action. Here's how we can stop them: www.independent.co.uk/voices/refor...
