Father's Day was always a difficult time for Boris Johnson.

This has me in tears 🥹💙❤️‍🩹

This is disgraceful ⬇️

There are, in my view, 25 things everyone needs to understand in light of recent events: 1) Those out in our communities last night were not protestors, but organised far right extremists. 2) Their actions align with fascist ideologies. 3) So yes: these are fascist practices on our streets. 🧵

Any NHS data system MUST be owned and run by the nation, the patients, because it is our valuable private information and it belongs to us!! Private profit making corporations cannot be trusted!! www.opendemocracy.net/palantir-is-...

For all who need to hear this today. From ‘Meister Eckhart’s Book of Darkness and Light’

Profiteering from our most vulnerable children, from our most vulnerable old people etc is an obscenity The Tories & New Labour did this Profiteering has no place in caring for the vulnerable or for caring for the sick in our NHS Streeting & the Labour Party seem OK about this. Not good enough

I feel that all Elected Members who voted for this should have to report on their church attendance

terrible. 20 years ago, the internet was full of hobbyist blogs and forums. over time, these have been replaced by paywalled substacks and private discord channels, each a walled garden. google's decision to prioritize AI just makes it less likely people will create free, public info

great stuff, especially how Jenrick lays another rake to tread on after the first gag

Wild God. Painted, mouthblown stained glass. 2025. This panel was inspired by Exmoor, its deep, dark woods, the bolving of its stags, the call of its owls, the dank of its mossy banks and the thrilling fear of what lies just out of the corner of your eye in a landscape that breathes old magic.

Quite.

Wes Streeting would be the final nail in Labour's coffin. More neoliberalism, more privatisation, more austerity, more grovelling to economic power, when we desperately want change.

Starmer just announced 'full national ownership' of British Steel. Labour are bringing emergency legislation, because 'public ownership is in the public interest' So this government CAN nationalise. And they can do it quickly. Why, then, are we not bringing our water into public ownership? 🧐

Icelandic authorities just rerouted a planned hot water pipeline so as not to disturb an elf hill.

🎶Absolutely amazing scenes in Wales as Plaid Cymru leader Rhun ap Iorwerth - set to be Wales's first pro-independence first minister - is interrupted by an impromptu rendition of the Welsh national anthem

Dear Starmer, Dear Labour MPs, Are you yet considering electoral reform & a change from the antiquated First-Past-The-Post (FPTP) system to a Single Transferable Vote (STV) system? This is what *your own members* told you they wanted at Conference - but you ignored them. #PRNow #ElectoralReform

Let The Self merge deeply in nature so it becomes a transparent veil through which Infinity reveals Its living face. For the highest life is not escape from the finite, but the transfiguration of it— until every thought, gesture, and breath becomes the living consciously within all forms. Alive.👆🏽

This please ⬇️

This deserves to be circulated. A former Red Cross staff member got in touch. She testifies about @zackpolanski.bsky.social's role. For transparency: her name is Brea Thibodeau. The whole thing is a desperate smear.

The Elizabeth Line cost about £19 bn. Leeds & Bradford (two major urban areas) just wants a proper tram system (at the modest estimated cost of £2.5bn). Apparently that's too much for HR Treasury! The government often says its 'patriotic'. Prove it. Give an actual shit about W. Yorkshire for once. 🏵

We’re very sorry sir but you cannot bring your emotional support dragon in here.

Man, proud man, drest in a little brief authority, most ignorant of what he's most assur d, glassy essence, like an angry ape, plays such fantastic tricks before high heaven, as make the angels weep. #ShakespeareSunday

The refusal to be pulled outward by experience… Not numbness, but kin symmetry It is not chase, It does not resist, sensations, thoughts, desires, or fears. They hang there, shimmering, asking to be grasped.. #Restful #Open 𝚂𝚎𝚕𝚏 𝚎𝚏𝚏𝚞𝚕𝚐𝚎𝚗𝚌𝚎🐚⋰⋱⋰⋱⋰⋱✨

Remember that MLK said America suffers not just from "the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people."

Shameful!

The privatisation of care has led to falling standards and increased costs: the opposite of what was promised. The only beneficiaries are private equity companies 🤬🤬

But it seems little mention of this today on BBC News website. 🤔
