Meanwhile near where they killed Renee Good ICE was terrorizing a high school — and now Minneapolis has canceled school for the week. None of this is about safety. A lawless regime with no guardrails.

Yesterday a poll suggested @greenparty.org.uk under @zackpolanski.bsky.social are leading among young people. Why are the young abandoning the Labour Party?

I'm afraid there *is* an obvious answer: it can't.

I remember being taught, many years ago, that the system of checks and balances in the US political system would prevent an abuse of power and ensure dictatorship could not occur. I sleep much better at night knowing this🤦‍♂️

Good morning to all the "I voted for Trump because I wanted America out of all those wars abroad" people.

This exposes the handbook that the USA is playing from. Well worth a read.

Spray paint a plane and they'll detain you without trial and call you a terrorist. Kidnap a foreign head of state - and Keir Starmer will make it clear we've played no part in it but will wait for the scheduled press conference in a few hours before potentially condemning it

Tents supplied to displaced Palestinians ‘inadequate for Gaza winter’

To be honest, apart from the festival in August, there’s not much to recommend it!

It seems that the White House is increasingly realizing that Putin is playing Trump.

The fireworks in London were truly world class with a positive message for us all.

Tonight’s moon creating plenty of moon shadows in my garden - and one ‘arty’ picture caused by camera movement while taking the photo and which put me in mind of ‘the angel of Mons’.

It has been 395 days of continuous demonstrations in Georgia’s capital, Tbilisi. Our citizens demand the resignation of Georgia's mostly illegitimate and pro-Russian government, the release of political prisoners, and the return to a pro-European course.

This is literally what the Telegraph campaigned for.

What kind of deviant mind puts empty wrappers back into the container before all the chocolates are eaten?🤷🏻‍♂️

Jumper of the year!👏👏

Seems to me this is a pathetic exhortation but an air-tight confession of guilt

Reform UK have repeatedly said that Kent is their "flagship" council and "the shop window" for how they intend to run things. When they are exposed as planning to slash social care for old people, in order to hire their cronies as advisors at £150k a pop, I think people should believe them. ~AA

A mutated influenza strain has triggered dramatic headlines in the U.K. where health leaders are warning of a “worst-case scenario” for the country’s NHS. But the data doesn't suggest hospital admissions will peak higher than previous years. 🔗 politi.co/4oV7XVC

Nigel Farage is probably delighted today that Reform have the most members of a political party. It doesn't have to be this way. 180,000 and rising. Hope ready to overtake hate. Stand and be counted. Join.greenparty.org.uk

The White House is promising to announce a new healthcare plan "very soon." We've heard that one before...

This is why I’ve been following the Prof since the Covid days; clear, calm and concise information in contrast to the hysteria from the news providers

Support the NHS and make sure that your MP knows how important it is to you,

🔴 REVEALED 🔴 The Institute of Economic Affairs – the anti-state, anti-climate pressure group that "incubated" Liz Truss – was bankrolled by oil giants and Rupert Murdoch’s media empire. 📝 Exclusive findings from @desmog.com 👇

Despite what you hear from fossil fuel-funded politicians, the U.K has just generated a record amount of clean, domestic wind energy. Enough to power 23 million homes! U.K decarbonisation policy is a recipe for energy security.

Reform UK councillor Andrew Harrison's business was fined £40,000 for hiring an "illegal immigrant." Almost like these people are shameless, two faced hypocrites isn't it www.bbc.com/news/article...

Is that £9million… Russian money?

Unlike the debunked “millionaire exodus”, Britain’s young workers really are leaving in droves— 174,000+ since March 2024. The motor of our economy walking away is a crisis that really should worry us. 🧵So, why are they leaving and how can we stop it? 1/9

Brexit: the trillion pound ‘mistake’ The recent NBER report suggests the Treasury’s 2016 analysis – slammed by Brexiters as a ‘hoax’– actually understated the impact of Brexit.

As right wing rags attack the chancellor for her Budget, they can't ignore the disastrous impact Brexit has had on our economy.

Why wouldn’t you want to know? What have you got to fear? Losing your precious Brexit? Being revealed as a traitor and a liar? Surely, anyone decent and honest who genuinely cares about our country and our democracy has nothing to lose from this. So, sign up. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/74...

🚨BOOM!! The Petition calling for a public inquiry into Russian influence on UK politics & democracy has now rocketed past 50,000 signatures! Let’s get it to 100,000. If a petition is what it’s going to take let’s get this done! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/74...

The X platform now has a new tool that promotes scrutiny about the origin of X accounts. I've noticed lately that more trolls are invading Bsky. This same feature that X has so members can check an account's country of origin would be super helpful to weed out the bad guys from causing harm here.

Retirees are mobilizing to defend democracy—and the benefits literally show up in their DNA.

When Rishi Sunak made the Vaccine deal with Moderna as Chancellor, he had up to £530m invested in Moderna. Now Michelle Mone is desperately bringing it up. Like if you want Mone on trial. RT if you want them both facing the music.

It’s unbelievable that Starmer, Reeves and Streeting are doing this…🚨

🔥 Highly recommended that you all sign and share. Link to the petition—> petition.parliament.uk/petitions/74...
