I tried some Chamomile Tea earlier today. It felt like I was drinking the smell of a pet shop. (Not necessarily a criticism. 😀)

Stick a nuclear weapon inside one. I saw it in a movie once. 😉 #Armageddon

Brexit was a gift to the Kremlin and a betrayal of the UK. It did exactly what Russia and China wanted. By choosing to divide and weaken Europe, the architects of Brexit traded national security for a lie. It was a strategic disaster for the entire West

Trump recently suggested that he is getting ready to issue a new anti-voting executive order. Last time he issued one, we sued and won. If he does it again, we will sue and win. Trump knows this. It is why he and his allies hate and attack me. I will never back down or stop fighting for democracy.

I think Wigan still have a chance if they can score 5 goals. 👀

What an outstanding performance! Coming behind from an offside, albeit well-worked goal and were by far the better team throughout. It's a reminder of what we've got in our locker if we could just maintain some consistency. Great night and into Round 5. HWTL!!! ⚽⚫⚪ #NUFC #ASTNEW

Britain is not being colonised. Don't try to excuse what Jim Ratcliffe said as a "poor choice of words". Get the words right in the first place. And when you do get it wrong, apologise unreservedly for getting it wrong and *then* frame your legitimate concerns about migration.

As good as the universal backlash to Sir Jim Radcliffe's comments on Britain being "colonised by immigrants" is, why only now? Why only to him? We have had hints and outright racism from politicians, the media and individuals for years. Where has the rolled newspaper on the nose been til now?

I've been concocting some writing over the last couple of weeks ago about the idea of Neurodiversity, cognitive load and programming. I love the work that I do. here's a little window into just how I do it & how my confidence has ebbed and flowed over the years. 👇 open.substack.com/pub/jonniegr...

Nigel Farage is an utter disgrace. And he is not correct. The UK is NOT being "colonised". He should have distanced himself from Jim Ratcliffe's comments rather than endorsing them.

On Look North, the other night, I took note of something that the MP for Bishop Auckland said. Yes, he was supporting a Prime Minister who was fighting for his political life. But what he said was that the PM was listening to his MP's during the crunch meeting on Monday night.l

Job done! Much of that was our best performance for some time. Against a poor team but you still have to get it done. Hopefully, hopefully that's the start of a shift in our play and our form! We need consistency! That's all we need! Villa in the FA Cup next. HWTL #NUFC⚽️⚫️⚪️

Multimillionaire Brexiter, Tim Martin, urges pubs to back Reform. Just like he urged the country to vote for Brexit. Too bad if it makes you poorer. Too bad for the children he’ll push back into poverty. Tim wants more money. And he couldn’t give a shit about the cost for everybody else. (iPaper)

Well, he's really done it now: "I will never walk away from our mandate for change". #KeirStarmer PMQs is going to be very interesting. See if "Come out Fighting" Keir will persist. Challenges: PMQs tomorrow - The By-Election, May Elections.

Well, that's got to be it for the PM then if Anas Sawar, the Scottish Labour leader, is about to call for him to go. Let's see what he says, though.

If my brain could talk, it'd probably be saying something like "What have you done to me this time???" right now.

Can’t argue with that 😂 I’ll never forget being under that banner when it was unveiled #nufc x.com/aaron_solber...

I wonder if my AI Agent is on Moltbook right now, complaining that I never thank it? and just close my tab mindlessley when I've got what I want from it? 🙃

I wrote a new Substack about this morning's brave & courageous thing I did. If I compare myself to others as I always do, this morning didn't go well. But I'm not anyone else. I'm me. And I hope one day I'll allow myself to think I did an awesome job. 😃 jonniegrieve.substack.com/p/a-personal...

Wish me luck this morning. :-) I'm currently going through that autistic experience of looking forward to doing the thing I wanted to do, pushed to do, and am willing to do, whilst simultaneously wanting it to be over. 😀 (I'll be standing up and talking to some friends about Autism) #autism

It might not be going well for him at the moment. But he knows it. He gets it, and he cares. #nufc

We are a team bereft of confidence and quality. Brentford the exact opposite. Sharp, well coached, well drilled and top quality. They totally deserved to win the game.

Mark Kermode and Simon Mayo were once required listening on Radio 5. I don't catch them nearly enough anymore. But I'm so glad I took the time to listen to this. "The Good Doctor" on Melania. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTyU...

As much as I'm fed up with the show going on at the top of the Labour Government, I'm looking forward to the Tim Shipman-style book about it that's waiting to be written. 😇

Don’t repost Trump’s racism. He is scum. White supremacist, ignorant, narcissistic, misogynistic, at best a protector of paedophiles (if not actually a participant). The world will not mourn his passing. He does not possess a single redeeming quality.

Honestly? I like the "move Parliament out and turn it into a museum" idea. But is that really practical? Does the country work better if Parliament sits in London? Can the country afford for it to stay there?

Donald Trump professes to be a Christian. And maybe in his own twisted way, he is. But if he is, it *is* twisted. Everything he does, everything to do with him, his businesses, his connections, his politics, his friends, followers. his litigations is all for him and his own personal benefit.

A couple of years ago a Bishop asked Trump directly to have mercy on people who are scared. He didn't.

Last night could have been very messy. We knew it was going to be tough after the first leg,but we went down to 2 unlucky goals (Burn in particular) & a moment of quality. I felt a bit grim at times, but I love that we rallied in the second half. Brentford next! Big game HWTL ⚽⚫⚪ #nufc #mcinew

"Haaland about to come on" Is that really necessary? 🤣🤣 #mcinew

I'm requesting someone conduct a scientific study into Newcastle's inability to score goals at the Etihad Stadium. 🤪 #nufc
