History repeats. That’s why in Europe we have the ECHR. 🇪🇺

How on Earth can we expect the human race to ‘save the planet’ we can’t even treat each other with kindness and respect.

Twitter has too much power and too many people of influence still using it.

For goodness sake just retire the lot of them. All their properties and land to the state. We’d save huge amounts of money and do away with their time wasting soap opera nonsense. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

#Yorkshire firm shifting trade to #EU post- #Brexit flagged by Vice Chair @jazz072.bsky.social in @yorkshirepost.co.uk 📉 Maybe be avoided if #Labour backed #SingleMarket access - @europeanmovement.co.uk found most employers want this 📈 #Labour 👂to #BrexitReality ⏰ to #RejoinEU ✊ #EuropeanUnion

Are we paying attention yet?

Only a party that explicitly states it will undo Brexit will get my vote, locally or nationally

9 months in, average Americans face rising pain: currency down 10%, groceries up 30%, credit collapsing, education gutted. Meanwhile, the 1% in tech & bitcoin grow richer as elites tighten control. We’re losing their cold civil war, as dictators rise worldwide🇺🇸

Trump appears to believe he is King of the World. 🙄 www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

Would this ‘person’ be a friend or family member by any chance?

Very pertinent questions from Mike here. What exactly is Europe going to do about the political figures on that flotilla kidnapped by Israel in international waters?

It’s about time Europe and the UK got its act together. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

Are we paying attention yet?

Spot who isn’t getting dressed to go volunteer at a local Park Run on this grey blustery morning.

Let’s be clear who this genocidal Israeli government is.

No leader in a democracy should be actively trying to harm its citizens. Trump is a danger to all Americans.

Trump is at war with the American People. His supporters just don’t realise it yet. www.france24.com/en/video/202...

The EU is a slow ponderous beast. It is not an organisation set up to respond to immediate threats and aggressions from Russia or anywhere else. Europe needs something new.

Together with the @socialistsanddemocrats.eu & @left.eu, we call on Ursula von der Leyen, Antonio Costa & Kaja Kallas to take immediate action on Israel´s illegal and forceful interception of the #GlobalSumudFlotilla. We will demand a debate on this violation of international law in #EPlenary.

I’m not sure Europe has been paying attention. Despots like Trump, Netanyahu and Putin are not overly concerned with legalities.

Europe and the UK need to get off their collective back feet in responding to Russian aggression.

"I can’t shake the thought that one of our generals should have walked out of that room, resigned his commission, and delivered a speech warning about the peril facing the U.S. military. At least one senior leader must step away, speak plainly, and sound the alarm." open.substack.com/pub/michaelw...

Really depressing but not unsurprising to hear and see commentators across the networks scramble to weaponise the terrible events and loss of life in Manchester yesterday. Maybe they could give it a day off and actually mourn the victims.

Over compensating, I’m thinking micro penis…………

Signs of psychosis. No biggie

Did he share a “wonderful secret” with Donald Trump as well?

This is vitally important. centralbylines.co.uk/politics/cri...

We need to hear these voices.

After clashing with Maurice Glasman recently, I've come to realise just how pernicious he and his Blue Labour movement are. We could discuss his chumminess with Steve Bannon and JD Vance, endless pandering to the far right and evident hatred of the Labour left. But there's something even worse. 🧵

“Mussolini didn’t begin with empire. He began with speeches about discipline and manliness, reshaping Italy’s institutions into props for his own cult of personality. And if that sounds distant, then look again because America is drowning in the same macho theater.” America is in trouble.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social is spot on here.

In my partners home city in France the buses (many of which are electric) are free for all to use.

Come on, let’s have it.

Whichever way you cut it, Brexit remains unpopular with the vast majority of people. Labour continuing to ride the Brexit Titanic will only end one way, electoral disaster. www.politico.eu/article/uk-w...

I remember at 13 years old hearing a Tory MP interviewed on the radio say “homosexuals should be taken outside and shot”. I can say with some conviction that hearing those words had an ‘impact‘ on me back then. Words have power. Those in power should think. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

In these times of dodgy and ineffectual media the @bylinesnetwork.co.uk is an excellent source of information and thoughtful journalism.

They’re baaack. 🤣 Repairs and all…

Kemi Badenoch must have a very good sense of humour when she announced her ill thought out idea to repeal the Climate Change Act because she added …….”if the Conservatives win the next election”. As if. 😂

Unfortunately Twitter became an increasingly unsavoury place after Musk took over. The sickening abuse and hate was one of the reasons why I deleted my 50,000 follower account. Perhaps MPs should reconsider their support/use of it. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Uggh I can here Fartage now : "Don't be ridiculous! A huge poll in the Express showed that over 90% of people don't think our plans are remotely racist" Get on it guys!! 👇

Just in case anyone wants to ‘help’ this Express poll, it's still going.

Zohran Mamdani has said if elected, he would direct the New York Police Department to arrest Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he sets foot in the city. Yes!! www.daily-sun.com/post/826170

There is a difference between anti-semitism and anti Israeli Gov. Most people understand that and deserve an intelligent, thoughtful response that condemns violence but doesn't resort to cheap simplistic sound bites. www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/starme...

We could rejoin the CU and SM and end this slow lingering decline of our country. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The Israeli government is committing a holocaust. If we sit in silence we are complicit.
