@mrjamesob.bsky.social Do I win the "millionth customer" prize for sharing this with you? If so, I can thank being in the pub and talking to people for the delay and use being a winner as an excuse to go out more. bylinetimes.com/2025/02/21/d...

This is how everyone can deal with bullies (whoever they are), even if your Gov doesn't. If you don't like something the Gov of another country is doing, impose your own sanctions as an individual, family, company, regional authority etc.

This Byline Times story on Farage pictured with far-right activists has not been picked up by any established media outlet - including liberal/democratic/left publications. Why? Because people like being comfortable in their own power and status. The newspaper I edit will keep sounding the alarm.

No constitution in the world is strong enough to cope with one party in a two-party system becoming an extremist personality cult, judges who disdain the law for partisan gain, and a populace ignorant and/or destructive enough to reelect someone with loudly advertised dictatorial aspirations

When there isn't shite coming out of his mouth he's stuffing it full of McDonald's and prescription painkillers. It may seem bad now but he's very old and fat and there's no way we've got to deal with him for another full 4 years.

In January 20, 1961, the temperature at noon was 22 degrees and 8 inches of snow had fallen in the morning. John F. Kennedy still had his inauguration on the steps of the Capitol.

Our country needs an intelligence community led by someone who'll protect us, not buddy up with enemy dictators like Assad and Putin. Tulsi Gabbard's disqualifying behavior makes her unfit for the role of Director of National Intelligence. Tell your Senators to reject her confirmation.

Here is the key section of that train wreck of an interview by Robert Jenrick on #r4today. Robinson: Did you raise it when you were Home Office minister? Jenrick: We talked about it... I wasn't... My portfolio... But we talked about it. Only a minute, if you can bear it. ~AA

This gang of sex abusers preyed on young children in Walsall, and got away with it for years. What could possibly explain the failure by Nigel Farage, Elon Musk and the Tories to call for a public inquiry about it?

And so it begins… You can’t appease these people. They only respond to decisive limits. Don’t implement them and they’ll take the piss. We are already in a democratic recession. Labour’s inaction won’t just screw them, it’ll screw us all. Our elections will be bought.

Not going to lie, that Usyk v Fury scoring looks a bit dodgy. Fury was looking pretty tired towards the end and Usyk finished a lot of rounds pretty well, but that fight didn't give me the "win by 4 round" vibe.

If you receive the state pension, you're on welfare. It is a discretionary payment which may be increased/reduced/removed at any moment. There is no pension pot. You are not receiving "your" money back.
