Zelensky offers to step down for NATO membership. These are the actions of a man who puts his country above himself. These are not the actions of a dictator. These are the actions of a hero! Slava Ukraine and Slava Zelensky. 🇺🇦

Have you ever done that thing where you're leaning out of the upstairs window to say a cheery hello to your wife at 11.30 at night when she's putting the recycling out and you knock your glasses on the pane and they fall off and down into the bin? No? Ah, c'mon, you must have?!

Don’t be a nice person…

I've just signed "Marks & Spencer - stop advertising on GB News" - Will you support the campaign too? actionstorm.org/petitions/ma... @StopFundingHate

#CaptainAmerica #BraveNewWorld is probably the best #Marvel film since #Endgame. Admittedly quite a low bar (comparable to Iron Man 2) but a slight return.

The most successful electoral force in UK history is polling at 9% with people <50. And as long as they keep pretending this is the fault of the under-50s, who "don't want to work", have been brainwashed by "woke ideology" or don't believe in "Western civilization", there's little hope of recovery.

"..iron winds at the bottom, followed by a very fast jet stream of sodium, and finally an upper layer of hydrogen winds. This kind of climate has never been seen before on any planet."

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

UK energy bills forecast to rise 5% from April. Add to this inflation-busting rises in water, phone, internet and more., people feel helpless. Can't grow economy with depleted household incomes. Must curb profiteering, impose windfall taxes. Ofgem protects companies, not people.

All the Americans I’ve ever known have been absolutely splendid people, but fucking hell, guys, what have you done?

What a name for a backing band.

We cast a ballot every time we open our wallets. #StopFundingHate

You've probably seen a lot of dodgy reporting over the past couple of weeks suggesting that Gen Z is desperate to be ruled by a dictator The reality, as @natashadevon.bsky.social found this week, is very different bylinetimes.com/2025/02/14/n...

I know everything feels grim right now but let's be realistic. These people are idiots. They're going to tank their economy. They're going to fuck-up every deal they sign. They're going to leave America looking shattered and deranged. And all those who supported them will look as idiotic as they are

Here's how the Conservatives managed to spend ÂŁ715 million of taxpayers' money on the failed, inhumane Rwanda scheme. https://buff.ly/41bZLrx

#totp That's enough for one night. I'm heading off to #OnlyMurdersInTheBuilding

#totp From the sublime to the ridiculous.

#totp Local girl KateBush singing LIVE? 😲😎

#totp Never understood why they don't have the song titles in the chart rundown.

LOVEFOOL IS DOG SHIT #TOTP

#totp isn't it too early for Showaddaywaddy???

#totp Opening of this Sea Horses sounds just like Love Spreads! But it doesn't last...

Writing this with a heavy heart: the refugee citizenship ban is the single most unconscionable policy Labour has proposed since it entered power. It’s the moment that I felt my support for this administration begin to crumble inews.co.uk/opinion/colu...

Thank you @petepaphides.bsky.social and everyone else at the Social tonight. Wish I could tell 18-year-old me about it. 🙂

Why is nobody talking about this?

Digital clean-up.

Reading each of these, a particular part of London IMMEDIATELY popped into my head! 😂

Some on benefits are 'taking the mickey', says UK minister. Some may do so, millions do not but will be victimised by cuts. What about those abusing the tax system, govt procurement, buying honours, impoverishing people with profiteering, selling dud products, crashing companies?

#totp Disco rap techno was a thing, eh?

#totp Help! I'm caught in a No Doubt time loop! ☹️

#totp 3T's teacher has just come on stage to show them hiw it's done!

Please Labour, Stop with this Reform-aping arseholery. We see it for what it is and we hate it. We’re v tired of the nastiness, the cowardice and the dishonesty of blaming immigration for govt failures. Put this nasty messaging in the bin and do better. Thanks UK www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Britons! Are you really going to be beaten by the EU?! WAS BREXIT ALL FOR NAUGHT????

Exactly this. Just 2% of Musk's wealth could feed the very poorest and most desperate people in the world. He could use his money to do extraordinary things - and could go down in history as a hero. Instead he has deliberately chosen to be an evil, villainous dick

Yeah, #Seabrook Crisps, and there's plenty more where they came from! 🙂🙂🙂

Starmer is to attend an EU summit and Brexiters are having a proper tantrum about it. As if they negotiated something good. As if our industries hadn’t been desperately lobbying govt ever since. As if the EU wasn’t an ally. Brexiters are monstrous toddlers - a total drag on diplomacy and progress.
