@octopus.energy You installed smart meters last October. In March I reported that my smart meters aren't reading.........I am still waiting for resolution. Every time I get some kind of support messaging it takes more than a month for nothing to happen. This is not the customer service you advertise

...How are they ever going to assemble a majority for a second Trump Presidency in the face of actual knowledge?... ...amazing what a bit of jerrymandering, voter disenfrachisement and rightwing thinktank money can do... We can't be complacent - have to reform electoral system &political donations

and errr.... Keir Starmer as well. Holding the 2028 Open at Turnberry - nah that isn't gonna do @teamlabouruk.bsky.social any good at all next time round

Trump has also banned the CDC sharing public health information - like useful data that helps in times of oandemic etc.... so properly anti-science, and anti-public health www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdi... @iandunt.bsky.social @lemoustier.bsky.social

I've just filled this survey, because I don't want non-doms, big corps and assholes like Musk dictating/distorting our domestic political agenda democracyforsale.co.uk/safeguard

The third and final part of my little Tolkien triptych this winter is up at @washingtonpost.com: "The lesson of J.R.R. Tolkien’s abandoned Lord of the Rings sequel" www.washingtonpost.com/books/2025/0...

❌ Elon Musk is amplifying far-right figures, spreading harmful disinformation, and meddling in UK politics. If we stay silent, he wins. But together, we can push back and demand stronger laws to protect our democracy. Join us and make your voice heard: secure.hopenothate.org.uk/page/163807/...

📢 "The APPG for Fair Elections – backed by over 100 parliamentarians – is calling for a National Commission for Electoral Reform. Keir Starmer would do well to lead this push." 🖊️ Great article by @josiah.writes.news setting out new research on #GE2024 by @electoralreform.bsky.social

Please retweet if you want the Labour government to do its utmost to restore the Freedom of Movement that was robbed from us by the worst abuses of democracy in modern British history.

"My parents live in a rural seat in the East Midlands. No one in that village has ever been canvassed, not once. Their votes don't matter." Our CEO Emma Harrison recently spoke at the Cambridge Union about the way FPTP is failing millions of voters. We need PR so that no community is ignored.

The psycho billionaires are seeing this moment as their time to go for the takeover. As in the US, also in the UK.

If the idea of Musk giving Farage £100m fills you with dread, please take the time to fill out this survey on political funding in the UK.

All these petitioners complaining that Labour haven’t delivered on their promises, so we should have another general election. We were promised during the EU referendum that “no one is threatening our place in the single market”, so should we re-run that vote too?

@mrjamesob.bsky.social listening to the assisted dying discussion with one ear and appreciate some of the concerns being voiced. But it is assisted dying not euthanasia that we are legislating on surely. It is a request from people to end their own life, not to end someone else's. Isn't it?

Last month, NFU president Tom Bradshaw revealed it was their lobbying that blocked Labour’s right to roam plans. This denies millions access to nature while empowering antisocial landowners. NFU, we’re calling you out—let’s debate access reform openly. It’s time for change. #RightToRoam
