Thats 2 things in the last 48hrs. that wouldn't have happened under tory/reform.

"...I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds. I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief. I come into the presence of still water. ..." ✍️Wendell Berry, "The Peace of Wild Things" #BookWormSat

Channel 4's brilliant The Windsors is still available. Haven't watched it for a while but I seem to remember Andrew is portrayed as a crass loud-mouthed practical joker. His two daughters steal the show! www.channel4.com/programmes/t...

And there's this:

229 million women live in the EU, and they all deserve safe, affordable abortion care. 1 million citizens have spoken, and so has the Parliament. It’s time for the Commission to act: make safe abortion access a reality across Europe NOW! ✊💜 action.wemove.eu/sign/2026-02...

Wish Have I Got News For You was on this week.

The world's political cartoonists cannot ignore Andrew's arrest, so here's a 🧵 of their takes, all brilliant & creative. [Please, remember to credit when passing them on. We get to view these cartoons for free, but this is their work & livelihood. Thank you.]

Not for raping young girls but for sending confidential government documents to Epstein! Although they are probably compromat connected!

I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland. And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.

Pope Leo XIV will not be joining US President Donald Trump’s “Board of Peace,” the Vatican’s top diplomat said Tuesday, adding that the United Nations should be left to handle crisis situations.

"So will it be the same act but with a different label?" Victoria Derbyshire humiliates Zia Yusuf on Reform UK's plan to scrap the Equalities Act, because, as she reads each of the things from the Equalities act he confirms they'll still be protected 🤷‍♂️

🚨 BREAKING: Nigel Farage has announced that Robert Jenrick will be Reform UK's Shadow Chancellor

As we near the 10th anniversary of Brexit, with evidence the damage to our economy is even worse than predicted, time to remind ourselves of Brexit Battalions ‘Media Corps’ who pushed for and celebrated this. Good time to tag them in. Any apologies?

At this very moment both the BBC News and Sky News channels are yet again showing a live speech by Nigel Farage. When will they start showing every speech by @zackpolanski.bsky.social and @eddavey.libdems.org.uk live as well?

Victor Orban, the leader of the far right authoritarian government in Hungary is bankrolling the Reform candidate Matt Goodwin in Gorton and Denton by-election. You know, Orban who stands firmly behind Putin. Reform UK Ltd, the patriots who always follow the money.

Day 1328 of #IansDailyPhotoChallenge and even the ladybugs are now having meetings, asking how long it is until spring 🤗🐞🐞🐞❤️ #inspiringnature #wildlife #naturephotography #MentalHealthMatters #365DaysWild

Just looking through some old comics and found a mail order advert for Small Prophets

Late morning stroll image: wayside flowers

But I hate the expression "meat free". I don't want that word associated with my food. Are they afraid to say vegetarian?

You had better input into this....Much less of Laura's spin on Sunday mornings please, moving the country into the court of Farage. The lights of hope will certainty be extinguished then. www.gov.uk/government/c...

This duet cover of Radiohead's "Creep", between a son and his Shastriya Sangeet classically trained mother, is the mash-up I didn't know how much I needed in my life. Totally spontaneous sobbing may have taken place. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZoH...

Why are they allowed to get away with the ‘uncontrolled’ rhetoric? It’s a straightforward lie, a hideous dog-whistle.

sweet in that air Edwin Morgan, ‘Strawberries’

“Powerful, considered, statesmanly… what we should hope for in a Prime Minister. I say again, I don’t agree with everything, there have been mistakes but boy am I glad we have him right now” Deborah Meaden 100% agree

When Labour came to power in 1997, a staggering 283,866 people were waiting 6 months or more for an operation. By 2007 the number was down to 199. Just one astonishing fact I came across while recording this and it's a reminder that government really can change things - for the better.

Just checking, it's now ok to flee your homeland, because you're afraid for your safety, and seek refuge in another Country? Glad we've cleared that up. Let's hear no more about immigration and refugees then.

What's so amazing about Jim Henson as a puppeteer is that he could literally be explaining that Kermit is made out of felt and ping pong balls and yet Kermit still feels alive the whole time he's doing it

There's no patriot like a Monaco-based patriot.

Why the fuck are we bailing out Jim Ratcliffe’s business? £120 million. He’s worth £17 BILLION This is the man complaining that immigrants (wrongly) are costing this country??

I hope Reform take note.

Sadiq Khan at his media reception: "Please make the most of the booze, because I will be bringing in sharia law starting from tomorrow." 😆😆😆

Gordon Brown, one of the most decent and competent Prime Ministers we’ve ever had and now showing his class again, but he was hounded out by the right wing establishment in this country. I hate this country most of the time and it looks like they’re about to elect a bigger charlatan than B.Johnson

One of the maddest elements of Brexit - and there are *many* - is the rewards that continue to be lavished on the blithering idiots who sold it & continue to be proved wrong about everything every day…

Weedy Seadragon (Phyllopteryx taeniolatus). The extravagant looking appendages are for camouflage so they blend with kelp and seaweed to avoid predators. #wildlife #nature #ocean #biology #photo

It is so embarrassing that it has taken nearly a decade for a British minister to say this, a statement of the absolute bloody obvious

I suppose Johnson's massive freeloading on the Bamford's wealth was also far less of a crime that Starmer accepting a couple of pairs of glasses from a Labour peer too.

😂

Octopuses 🐙 have been wandering in the oceans for 296 million years. They have three hearts and blue blood and are amazing #MondayMorning

An ex British Prime Minister was involved in a three some with Ghislane Maxwell? Impeccable sources apparently. Why isn’t it being reported by our media? #epsteinfiles

Why did the American audience apparently hear different audio of JD Vance's appearance at the Olympics than the audio heard by the rest of the world? NBC denies muting. But it's part of overall disturbing developments in the US corporate media world.

The name’s Pud, Yorkshire Pud; licensed to rise

LOL.... i wanted to hear JD getting booed at the Olympics and when i searched for it on YouTube i got this

Like when David Cameron got caught trying to suborn ministers for big contracts on behalf of a billionaire, and it turned out what we needed was a new law that would make it illegal for former Prime Ministers to commit crimes. A law that we did not even get.

I hope this clears up any confusion.

Wrong decision-yes. However, that which LC, hates Labour so much, it’s tangible. Biased BBC. Not once, did she get on her soap box regarding all the Tory corruption and gaffs. For Labour - she’s on that soap box, all trumpets sounding. A British disgrace. Sack her please BBC. #Traitor
