Oh please. Since when has out-bastarding Farage ever worked? You just pull political debate to the right, punch down on the vulnerable, whip up prejudice and actually deliver naff all. Look at the last 14yrs of Farage-induced failure. For love of god, be better. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

There is still beauty in this world

Brexit Curse Efforts to keep potentially disease-ridden meat out of the UK undermined by post-Brexit border checks. Illegal meat sold on "most High Streets". Brexit has been a disaster. Must rejoin, boost economy, health, worker rights and stand-up to Trump.

I know that I posted a federal recourse for Elon and his raggedy associates stealing the sensitive information of millions of Americans from the Treasury Department. But the next step is pressuring state Attorney Generals and Governors - especially in blue states -

Good Morning. “Blue Monday” is a made up phenomenon to sell holidays. Dips in mental health happen at any time. And the shit hurricane that is about to explode in the US is going to cause pain to a lot of people. Maybe not today Here is a list of UK resources. www.mind.org.uk/information-...

Physical books, or at least DRM free and downloadable electronic copies that you can keep and hold. If a company or government can remove your access to it, you don't "own" it.

As expected Thames Water says it will raise base pay of bosses if Ofwat limits bonuses. Limiting bonus is just a useless govt impression management exercise. Need to put customer-elected directors on water company boards. Let customers vote on exec pay. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Compare the sheer scale of the coverage handed by the BBC this morning to Nigel Farage and his party, with its grand total of five MPs, to its coverage of other similarly small parties.

The censorship algorithm on Twitter reduced our audience by roughly 95%, and seriously, who does that to a wildlife biology & advocacy group ? So we moved 😇 over here to BlueSky If you could, please help us regain our following Follow Retweet and Repeat ;-) Together we can change the world.

If you missed the King's Speech don't worry, he waffled on about himself, said it has been a hard year for 'us all'. He mentioned the #FarageRiots but he didn't actually blame Nigel Farage or anything, just said it was terrible. £500m a year, I want my money back

Stop Forcing A.I. into Fucking EVERYTHING!

BLOW THIS UP! Striking Amazon workers picketing outside an Amazon warehouse were greeted by a torrent of water in freezing temperatures from Bezos. These mega corporations & billionaires will stop at NOTHING to stop us from organizing. Fuck that! We stand with WORKERS. #SolidaritySeason

Billionnaires stole your living. Not immigrants. Not minorities. Not people who follow a different religion. Billionnaires. Noone needs a billion to live. Billionnaires could easily give you the money you lack and not notice the loss. They do not. They never will.

Imagine if Napster and Kazaa had successfully lobbied to get copyright law rewritten. That's effectively what AI companies are doing right now in this country.

Why cut public services when you could tax billionaire pocket change? 🤔 Wealth inequality in this country is a national disgrace. We can more than afford to compensate Waspi women. We can't afford the obscene wealth accruel of billionaires. Tax them first, then we can talk about public services.

Make sure your family’s vaccines are up to date. These fools may wind up revoking access to important ones.

Yay

Today, the UK government announced a proposal to change copyright law - for the benefit of AI companies - that would cause huge, irreversible harm to creators More info below, but most importantly here's what you can do (wherever you live): Credit: @ednewtonrex.bsky.social for all the resources!

England govt & regulators broke the law by being too lenient on sewage dumping water companies, says environment watchdog. They protect companies and capital, not people. Water companies have 1,100 criminal convictions, still allowed to control industry. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

When I had a violent stalker who would graphically describe how he would have me gang raped, puncture my organs and and break all my bones, I was told the police "couldn't do anything". Consider this a reminder that they absolutely ✨can✨ do something. They just don't care about YOU.
