The government cancelling local elections threatens accountability and undermines local democracy. Parliament must debate whether the government should have this power. Please sign our letter. secure.unlockdemocracy.org.uk/page/184786/...

The privatised British Post Office service really is shit, hadn't had any post for 10 days then a load appeared today, including this Christmas card which was posted 2nd class on 18th December! Funny how I received it all after phoning to complain yesterday.....

Ooh I am enjoying tonight's David Bowie special! #dlxp

Good. I wouldn't go to the USA at the moment if you paid me. More fans need to do this to send a message to FIFA.

I'm not a racist but I'm a Reform councillor.....

As true today as it was nearly 10 years ago. #RejoinEU #Brexit

A sad day for me. I know which one I prefer and it ain't the blue one (it's black imho). What a retrograde step, we are worse off in so many ways. I've never got over leaving the EU and I never will. #RejoinEU

But the Labour Party & the Government will still post on there.....

As I have said many times before, rules are for the little people.

Pleased too see that BBC I Player is running all the original series of Inspector #Lynley. I need to watch them all again to expunge the memory of the inferior new series, I didn't even finish the first episode.

How quickly they forget.....

I live in London and go into Central London regularly. No matter what time of day or night I never feel scared or threatened.

An accident waiting to happen sadly.

They get slung on the floor & they stay there, utterly pointless.

My mum died of Parkinson's, I wouldn't wish this horrifying disease on anyone. This is one of the reasons why I'll be wearing a mask when I go to the theatre tomorrow (and will probably be the only audience member who does) #wearamask #CovidIsNotOver

Ocado worst for plastic bags as total single-use sales rise for first time www.theguardian.com/environment/... I really resent having to accept Ocado bags when I have Bags for Life. Irresponsible of Ocado to make you have them (and pay) when they're not needed.

Started watching #lynley and switched it off after 15 minutes, yet another inferior remake. Not a patch on the original with Nathaniel Parker & Sharon Small, the new duo have no rapport at all and what's with Haver's accent, not Norfolk at all?

Is it true that … going out when it is chilly can make you catch a cold? www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle... You could even wear a mask....

"The establishment needs a kick up the arse". Do they not realise that privately educated, hunting & shooting fan Farage is about as establishment as you can get?

Joyous!

Shame the thickos didn't realise this 10 years ago....

Here's my new year message to the MSM, Farage and his ilk.

#catsofbluesky Marmalade and Vos are having a chilled start to 2026 and we wish you all a Happy New Year

Wise words.

In generations to come they will look back in horror that people were able to buy fireworks and let them off completely legally.

Doesn't like to pay tax and then moans about a lack of services that tax pays for....

My mum and I once saw John Thaw of The Sweeney/Morse fame walking down Oxford Street in London. I also saw Francis Rossi at Gatwick Airport.

I wouldn't even accept one for free.

In 2025, melting sea ice allowed a Canadian icebreaker to enter the world's last ice area www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The past is a different place....

Led Zeppelin at Knebworth in 1979. I was really upset when John Bonham died.

Hitchcock's The Birds. That film has given me a phobia of flocks of birds.

I watch the beautiful foxes that visit my London garden with pleasure, I have never understood why some people take pleasure in watching dogs tear them apart.

Yes, we really do. Here's Marmalade & Vos (mum & daughter) enjoying a box each! #joinin #catsofbluesky

Happy Christmas everyone. If you're not feeling much like celebrating today or feeling lonely can I suggest looking at #joinin? Started by @sarahmillican.bsky.social several years ago on the now toxic site, it's a good way to connect with other people and may even make you smile a bit!

I have no idea if my sons want children or not, it is not my business to ask and I'd never feel disappointed in their life choices.

Sounds far more relevant than the King's speech. Oh and GBeebies and the Torygraph are outraged 👍 #NotMyKing

What a superb Christmas show @ssuburbs.bsky.social this lunchtime, there was something for everyone. Thank you for playing my requests this year Alan, roll on 2026 for more 70s goodness! #sts70s

Trust the Torygraph to take this stance. #CovidIsNotOver #wearamask

Jimmy Kimmel will be reading The Alternative Christmas Message on Channel 4 in the UK at 5.45pm on Christmas day. Far more relevant than what the King has to say imho. #NotMyKing

Aww...

Such sad news. RIP Chris Rea.

www.theguardian.com/business/202... This is not just a wonderful idea for warmth and for many many people struggling with the C of L crisis - but also as an answer to curb the other national crisis : loneliness!

Ratcliffe should put his hand in his own pocket.

Imagine, future generations of children never having to suffer the horror of the dentist's drill.

These are delightful. Glad that Bridget came home. My cat who was a stray used to disappear for weeks, would come home bedraggled and sorry for herself. Luckily it stopped when she got older, now she rarely goes out at all.

This would be disgraceful at any time as #CovidIsNotOver but especially at the moment with the flu running riot as well. Would this be due to facial recognition technology by any chance? Shame on Lakeside, I won't be visiting any time soon even though it is local to me. 😷

I'm shocked I tell you, shocked.

I've been flashed at & propositioned by boys and men, none of whom were immigrants. Badenoch is talking out of her arse as usual.
