Reform MP backs up Nigel Farage claims that migrants are coming for your birds.

For far too long, women in Wales have been told their pain is normal, their symptoms imagined, or their conditions simply not important enough to warrant serious attention ✍️ Cefin Campbell MS

I’m beginning to think they lied about liking free speech…

Welcome to the United Kingdom! 🇬🇧 Never before in U.S. History has a President been acknowledged by another country in this unique way! 🇺🇸 At Windsor Castle, in London & all across the land, people are United! ✊ They all want to see the #EPSTEIN_PedoFiles, ASAP! 👀

Speed cameras are about to go live on a stretch of road that has seen vehicles travelling in excess of 100mph and several severe and fatal crashes over the past five years

A handsome building in my old hometown, the General Wolfe in St Austell is at risk. I used to drink there, it was a proper pub. #Cornwall #StAustell #heritage www.savebritainsheritage.org/news/buildin...

15 September 1922 the Daily Mail publishes Kemal Ataturk's territorial demands, the British government decided to "take steps to safeguard the neutral zone of the Straits against the Turkish menace". The Chanak Crisis marks the beginning of the downfall of David Lloyd George. #OTD #OnThisDay #Turkey

More archaeology updates!

Charlie Kirk’s murder was utterly abhorrent and corrosive to our politics. So was much of the reaction to it- including from his allies. My piece. open.substack.com/pub/goodalla...

I mean, why wouldn’t you commission the thoughts of pretty much the only economist on the planet who thought Brexit would be brilliant?

I look forward to Nadine Dorries squaring her frequent & frenzied attempts to get me fired for telling the truth about her absurdity & awfulness with her new party’s commitment to ‘free speech’.

Graham Linehan once took issue with a sketch I did and tweeted about me referring to me not by name but only as to who my boyfriend was and called me an NPC ( non player character.) It was misogynistic and his “standing up for women” schtick is baloney.

It seems unlikely that the richest men in the world are so worried about footing the bill for decent regulation of the online space that they’ve signed up pliant politicians to invent a non-existent ‘free speech crisis’. Until you remember just how greedy you have to be to become that rich…

SHOCKING: 68.7% of voters in Llanelli don't have the MP they voted for. That's 27,993 people with ZERO voice in Parliament. Check your area: makevotesmatter.org.uk/democracyome... @makevotesmatter.bsky.social

This is why we can't let the racists win. The language needs further protections in order to counter the onslaught that Farage and his ilk will bring.

A cautionary tale from the 🇨🇦 War Graves Detachment, 1919: "I found a Detonator in the afternoon. I retuned with it to my Tent. I took the brass screw from the top of the Detonator and the explosion occurred. This witness made the X his hands being in too bad condition for him to sign his name."

If your concern is that a white person who pleaded guilty received a sentence within the guidelines maybe you *want* two tier justice.

Members of Welsh and Irish youth organisations have joined forces once again to break down language barriers through music and continue building relationships between both Celtic communities

Wales needs 'Redorm' apparently. 😂

The recent English flag flying & road painting is not patriotism, it's the far right using it to intimidate & spread hate. In Llanelli, we had the far right trying to use the 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 to spread hate. 🤢Voice of Wales🤢 & their ilk should be shown the far right racists won't sully the dragon. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

This was an excellent documentary.

Congratulations to @drfernriddell.bsky.social on her blockbuster new book, out today! It’s full of startling new revelations about Queen Victoria’s secret love life — including a possible (probable?) marriage to John Brown and maaaaaybe a secret lovechild!

So much this. You have to presume that Brunel & co pissed a lot of their contemporaries off with their bridges etc…

Reform members new ring of loyalty. As usual, the spelling is incorrect...

1/3 - The British Government have now decided that English 16 year olds have reached the same intellectual level of those in Wales and Scotland. Well done, you can now vote for your Parliament at the next election.

The lurching horror of our national immigration narrative is on full display today. Even two years ago, I believe almost all media would have framed the victims of the Afghan leak as allies to whom we have a duty of care. In the Mail today, they are ‘migrants’ being ‘smuggled’ in to the country.

mailchi.mp/e87f8af44d0f... Looking forward to my first presentation in a few years. I'll be talking about the opposition from some in the Liberal ranks (mainly Emlyn Hooson & Geraint Howells) to joining the EEC/Common Market in the run up to the 1975 referendum.
