Slava Ukraini.

New book by RFK Jr, a sequel to his first book, The Very Hungry Brain Caterpillar.

I almost bought a book on Amazon today, but then I went to eBay and got it slightly used for half the price. Boycotting Amazon is fun AND easy.

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

No more help to the US until Trump, Vance and Musk are all gone. God help Scotland with the bullshit they have to face.

Unsurprisingly, this petition is racing at pace. 👇👇

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

Plaid Cymru wishes a peaceful Ramadan Mubarak to the Muslim community of Wales and the world.

Trump’s treatment of Zelenskyy just now was appalling.

Remembering the great Bob Paisley, who passed away in 1996 ❤️

Canadians adapting to Trump’s threats by cancelling holidays to US, buying Canadian, and rewiring their trade to Europe and Asia. 👏👏👏 🇨🇦 ♥️🇪🇺

A critical point.

Politics at the moment is failing to deliver the most basic elements of a decent life for people. Holding politicians accountable for misleading the public would help turn politics into what it should be – a debate about how to improve people’s lives.

Today, thousands of us demonstrated outside the US embassy with a message for Donald Trump: hands off Gaza. The resilience of the Palestinian people will not be broken — and nor will our solidarity. We will be here for as long as it takes until there is a free and independent Palestine.

Will you join @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social at the march for Palestine on Saturday? 🇵🇸

"Council tax has long been a contentious issue in the United Kingdom – and for good reason. It is a regressive tax system fraught with complexity, inefficiency, and glaring inequities."

Brah... Very true

Pete Hegseth gets this year’s Neville Chamberlain award for foolishly believing dictators and thinking that appeasement leads to “peace in our time.” Security guarantees are meaningless. Ukraine must join NATO and aggression must be stopped. 🇺🇦

The government was right to welcome Ukrainian refugees fleeing war. There is only one reason that people in Gaza, displaced by a genocide that our government abetted, are treated differently. That reason is anti-Palestinian racism.

It's also "be nasty to immigrants" week in Starmer's diary

After 25 years of Labour, our #NHS is struggling, schools are underfunded, and our economy is suffering. #Wales deserves better 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Plaid Cymru is committed to delivering a better future for all. With your support, we can achieve the fresh start that Wales needs: www.partyof.wales/join

Great news - Today, the Court of Session has ruled that the UK Government's approval of the proposed Rosebank oilfield was unlawful 🎉 This is hugely welcome as we continue to call on the governments of the UK to make the right decisions for people, nature and climate 💚

On this day in 1919, the great Bob Paisley was born ❤️

With Nigel Farage and Reform UK again calling for the UK to leave the European Convention on Human Rights here is a reminder of why joining Russia and Belarus as the only European countries outside the ECHR is a very very very bad idea youtu.be/iSTN-h8NoyY?...

Hugh Grant urges POLICE to investigate Sun owners And he’s absolutely right www.bbc.com/news/article...

When I say “my cat is the prettiest cat on earth” please understand that YOUR CAT is also the prettiest cat on Earth. BOTH of our dogs are the cutest dogs in America. My pets’ beauty does not take away from your pets’ beauty. They are all good dogs, Brant.

americans please take note of your duties as laid out in the declaration of independence.

✅ EU membership ⛔️Trump’s US It’s clear where the UK needs to go from here (even if it isn’t to Starmer yet!) — and we are the organisation building the structure to do it. Our membership is surging - coming up to 25,000 now. Join us! 🙌

They really are.

Thank you Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde.

Brilliant satirical cover from Private Eye, mocking spineless media organisations and journalists who submit and cower in the face of power 👏

This is a remarkable moment. Trump and Vance sit there in silence, as a bishop pleas with them to lean on their better angels and not follow through with their depraved campaign promises that target the LGBTQ+ community and immigrants. Never seen anything like this.

I do love Bluesky, BUT …one thing I cannot stand on here is the fawning over Biden. What happened in Gaza (and West Bank, Lebanon - and also Afghanistan before) was unforgivable. Utterly unforgivable. And I’ll be going posting that on all these sycophantic Biden-MAGA posts.

A few Teslas are going to get keyed now I reckon. 🫣😬🤣 Anyone still on Twitter/ X - sort your fucking life out, pricks.

Sounds like a plan

Thread/ Today, a devastating report from the @rcn.org.uk, based on the testimony of over 5000 NHS nurses, has rightly catapulted the national shame that is NHS 'corridor care' into the headlines once more. (1/15)
