Trying to work out why the country inexplicably chose to make itself poorer and hand the levers of power to a thieving bunch of incompetents. 70s prog rock is the best music. Trying to find the people that I used to follow in the other place 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🎹

🗳️Last year's voter turnout for mayoral elections: 40.5% 🚦Vote share the current frontrunner could win on: 23% 🚨Their total vote share of the entire electorate: 9.27%. We've entered into a new era of multiparty politics, which could produce the most unrepresentative results we've ever seen.

A UK-US trade deal may offer temporary relief from tariffs, but at what cost to Britain’s economy, food standards, and long-term EU relationships?

Science is not truth. Science is finding the truth. When science changes its opinion, it didn't lie to you. It learned more.

When 3 parties are tied at 23%, and the 4th has the most popular leader…… the idea that this is a “two-horse race” is dead. Voters should feel free to vote for who they actually want. @stephenmcnair.bsky.social reports

Remove the Olympics & World Cup from US, it is not safe for visitors. When you travel to the US you risk arbitrary arrest and abduction, random acts of extreme firearm violence and terrorism, unknown pathogens and disease, and discrimination or xenophobic attacks.

Britain, a trading nation, now has a vital choice to make about its priority trading partners: - the EU, where agreements are made, kept, reciprocal, based on international norms, & enforced by a court - the USA, where agreements are made, broken, changed & broken again at a whim, with no recourse

Nigel Farage has told ITV News the first thing he would do as prime minister if he won a general election would be to remove the UK from the European Convention on Human Rights That alone is good reason never to vote for Reform UK. THIS IS WHY youtu.be/MdiDDJrQUJA?...

Ministers don't want the Water Commission to look at public ownership. New research shows that under any price tag, taking over the firms saves at least £3 billion a year. Support public ownership? Submit your view to the Commission before it closes. 👇 weownit.org.uk/act-now/wate...

Starmer is rightly supporting Ukraine But Trump blames Ukraine for Russia's invasion Status quo is what it is, but why is the UK seeking a new economic deal (a watered down trade deal) with the country that blames the victim for the attack?

Is it worth having a trade deal with the US when the costs are: 1. repealing hate laws 2. accepting chlorinated chicken and highly medicated beef 3. accepting US private healthcare companies in NHS Just totally unacceptable conditions, ALL OF THEM! REJOIN THE EU, and accept pro-people conditions

Foreign Friends with Travel Plans to the U.S. for Conventions: A bit back I said you should maybe reconsider those plans. I would like to amend my prior statement. Cancel them. Cancel them now. We cannot keep you safe from our own government. Take your holiday in Spain or something.

The administration that called Canada “the 51st state” and said “we’re going to get” Greenland is suddenly cowed by sovereignty.

Genuinely amazing that Trump has devised a tariff regime that exempts phones manufactured in China but hammers anyone assembling electronics in the USA using parts made in China. Cannot *wait* to see how his boosters explain that decision as genius.

In a real emergency, governments step up to defend their strategic interests. Plaid Cymru recognised the importance of Welsh steelmaking. Labour chose to look the other way.

The Supreme Court has ordered Donald Trump to recover the innocent US Citizen he sent to El Salvador, Donald Trump refuses. You know why? Because it isn't one person they have sent illegally, and this isn't a prison in El Salvador, it is a Slave Labor Concentration Camp.

This would be very helpful. As it stands, generating electricity from anything but gas is a big earner.
