Oh, there was no need for that Adam. Poor Ed, it wasn't him that did anything wrong. #TheArchers

Oh, BLOODY HELL I didn't expect to hear that. Oh dear 😢😢😢 #TheArchers

Deer obviously. Bloody autocorrect. #bbcpm

I'm happy to have babies in my presence, it's noisy children I don't want. Go elsewhere. #bbcpm

Also, if you're being tailgated, slow right down. #bbcpm

I dread hitting a dear or badger 😒 There are a lot of muntjac dear around here. #bbcpm

I miss hearing Caroline Lucas. #bbcpm

I'm definitely attracted to child free zones. All that yelling, screaming, running around (in princess dresses). Just no. #bbcpm

This is the judgment on the PPE/Medpro claim. A cracking £122m win for the Government Legal Service And is wonderful to see the government bringing a claim in contract against a shoddy supplier. This does not happen often, and it should happen far more. www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/u...

Here I am in 2020 in the flimsiest, most pitful PPE - like so many other NHS staff, some of whom died from the Covid they caught in their hospitals. Tory peer Michelle Mone - who today lost her legal case & must repay the govt £122m - dares to claim she’s been ‘scapegoated’. What, Michelle? 🧵

I don't have a problem with having an ID card. But a "Brit card"? Fuck off.

Dover Port Health Authority (DPHA) continues to seize unequivocal volumes of illegal meat, including over 10 tonnes in the last two weeks—a staggering 324% increase compared to the same period last year. This substantial and ongoing rise signals a growing crisis at this critical border. #r4today

“I would gently point out to Nigel Farage that before we left the EU we had a returns agreement with every country in the EU. He told the country it would make no difference if we left. He was wrong about that. These are Farage boats in many senses coming across the channel” 👏 PM Keir Starmer

As global vaccination improves, so UK programmes decline. #r4today www.gov.uk/government/n....

Well I won't be singing with my guitar accompanier any more 😐 Apparently my voice is indisciplined. I should be following his rhythm at all times and not the other way around. My deviations cannot be tolerated. So I'm singing Dolphins unaccompanied at the next club session. He's not going.

WATCH: "They are underwater across the board, and they know it. And that is causing them to double down in public. But it is backfiring. That is why—whether it's a shutdown, whether it's all of this—they want us to blink first. And we have too much to save," says AOC.

Who the hell gave the weather permission to rain ! It was forecast to be sunny.

A royal story #r4today

I've been reading the comments about the Starmer interview. Personally, I found it just very uninteresting. Starmer, in his staccato voice, said nothing new. He was very anodyne. Robinson said a couple of objectionable things, as usual. I'm no wiser than before I listened. #r4today

Totally relevant to Gaza. #wato

I don't recall Sarah ever questioning a Tory about their habit of mounting ad hominem attacks on Labour. And snake oil salesman is a pretty accurate description of grifter Farage. #wato

Catching up on #wato. I hear Gaza is going to become The East India Company. Tony Blair: Clive of India. Wondering what next.....

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.

I wanted to hear from Wes Streeting about the NHS plans but he was squeezed so that other matters could be addressed (as if he was PM). Perhaps he should have been given more time. #r4today

Today on #r4today I heard that the NHS app has been on a journey and that patients have been on a journey. I'm looking forward to the scenery. #r4today

Morning. Be interesting to see some of these Welsh places names popping up on the map. We pronounced Ystalyfera us-ler-vera. Just saying. #r4today

Poll with LabourList & Survation. Who would Labour members want to replace Keir Starmer if he didn’t lead the party into the next election? Andy Burnham: 43% Wes Streeting: 9% Angela Rayner: 7%

I hardly use Google now. I mainly use ChatGPT, DeepSeek or Claude. Gemini is rubbish though. DeepSeek helped me solve a tech problem. ChatGPT advised me how to tame my inner Spock during conversations 😎 #bbcpm

Oh. No Mr blue Labour feller, Farage IS a racist. He's known for espousing racist and antisemitic views since he was at college. #bbcpm

Is this another one sided Trump deal. #bbcpm

Mahmood: ... to those considering a perilous small boat journey, the risk is not worth it. And your only route into this country should be a safe and legal one. A safe and legal route we are not providing. #bbcpm

Right. I'm going to mow the lawn 😎

Reeves sounds like a dalek. #wato

Good news for Moldova www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s... #wato

Patriotism...... "helping an old lady across the road" 😬 #r4today

"Being on benefits are when you are unable to find work". No Ms Reeves, it can also be when you CAN'T work. #r4today *I started this morning ok, now I'm bloody grumpy having to listen to her.

They WERE cuts to welfare Ms Reeves. #r4today

Watching The Hack. It's brilliant, very clever. The breaking of the 4th wall by David Tennant works really well for me. Although I know some don't like it. I feel it keeps the pace going and adds some humanity to what is a somewhat dry story. #TheHack

I absolutely hate it when someone says "you're overreacting". What they really mean is "your reaction is really annoying me and I don't care about your feelings, it's mine that matter". #TheArchers

"Gran and Leonard" are much too old to be looking after a puppy all day. Surely that's obvious isn't it? #TheArchers

Excellent, and terrifying read: www.newstatesman.com/politics/202... #wato

A horror story.

I do like Bluesky. But there are some twats. Some are just annoying GIF/emoji perpetrators. But some have some very dodgy ideas.

Did I hear a veiled "pensioners should be grateful for what they have" there? #bbcbh
