It was a cold start this morning.

Haha - genius 🤣🤣🤣 A Piers Morgan/Megan Markle Cold War Steve special

Sums it up

‘“Sunak argued that ministers should let Covid "rip a bit" according to a damning diary extract disclosed to the #CovidInquiry “ #DrDeathSunak faces th inquiry next week. #EatOutToDieOut

Home Office ordered to give full cost of Rwanda deportation plan Happening Monday at the same time Sunak gives evidence to Covid Inquiry

Again: this isn’t theoretical. Read the story. The effort is *already* working in several states. Election officials are sounding the alarm. This isn’t “alarmism,” this is Trump and his influential allies working diligently to install his “heads I win tails you lose” election philosophy in real time

I see the LGB Alliance are supporting Kemi Badenoch with her utter bullsh*t about gay kids being forced to be gay - a woman who is anti LGBTQ but the alliance will lick the arse of any old homophobe if they’re anti trans. It’s the same lie as ‘gay people have to recruit kids’ I heard growing up.

Ooops. Mogg’s Somerset Capital Management isn’t just in trouble after the catastrophic loss of £2 billion of St James’ Place business It is to close down Now let him lose his seat sooner rather than later www.ft.com/content/0d1f... via @financialtimes.com

A seemingly offbeat observation: What Elon Musk paid for Twitter was roughly 10X Britain's entire intelligence budget, MI5, MI6 and more 1. So he could easily afford to be the world's best informed man. Instead he gets his information from random nutjobs www.politics.co.uk/reference/mi6/

It doesn't matter my mood this song/video never fails to make me happy youtu.be/a_426RiwST8?...

Sunak referred to as Dr Death the Chancellor in Covid messages

If we could all stop killing one another for a fùcking minute, that'd be grand.

Happy Tuesday folks x

Recently, both govt & its faithful papers tried to blame 1st nurses, then doctors for the state of the #NHS & the effect strikes would have on patients & treatment. Last week's YouGov poll shows yet again that people in the UK don't buy govt propaganda anymore. They know exactly whose fault it is.

Peter Bone Tory MP Wellingborough Recommendation that he be suspended for 6 weeks (triggers recall petition process) The findings were of conduct that included “violence, shouting, swearing, humiliation, mocking, belittling & ostracisation” Complaints made to the Tory party in 2015 & again in 2017!

A very pretty multicoloured sky this morning.

I know we're inured to it at this point, but this is genuinely jaw-dropping stuff.. www.opendemocracy.net/en/covid-19-...

Mark Carney, Anna Soubry, to support Labour at the next election www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The biggest thing that pushed me to take a (possibly temporary, possibly permanent) step back from Twitter was Musk’s stupid and irresponsible decision to strip headlines out of links to news articles linked in tweets, leaving only a thumbnail image. That’s very dangerous.

@likesretirement.bsky.social Welcome :)

Someone told me that this app may seem very empty because of this default setting that requires replies to have 2 likes or more before they show up. Indeed! I changed it so that all replies show up, and suddenly the place seems much more lively. I highly recommend changing it in your settings.

“Liberty is taking Braverman to court for ‘unlawfully’ passing legislation Parliament had already rejected A cross-party parliamentary committee said this is the first time secondary legislation has been used to make changes to the law that have already been rejected by Parliament”

I have never heard so much bull**** in a single conference speech This is the round up you won’t see on @BBCNews. If you think the country should see it share it widely https://youtu.be/LFcJB2piOQo?si=DV3ka03dWr9PmCeI

The Tory government spent £bns on compulsory purchasing land for HS2 builds. Now, it is going to sell it all off again. Probably to donors and supporters cheaply. It's sounds like the Enclosures all over again.

It's time to ban the Conservative Party. They're a criminal organisation.

It's definitely raining over Manchester

Tis pretty out there

Happy Saturday, this evening's sunset over Manchester x

This evening's sunset over Manchester. Happy weekend folks x

Happy Friday. I've made things for those thoughts & feelings 😁

Happy Friday. Fuck the Tories. Fuck their corruption. And Fuck National Service.

Nick Gibb says schools continue to be surveyed for risk of collapse after over 150 were told to shut. The Gov't have known about this issue for YEARS and have done the square root of fck all! IF a child/teacher dies from a collapsed ceiling, will the Gov't even be sorry?
