A woman’s, a child and a turkey…

Reading the comments from Trump and Hegseth; they really are playground bullies who’ve never grown up. Jog-on is apt feedback… yeah the toys you have are bigger and better but you’ve cut the cord that has tied us together since 1945… now you go swim free in your own swamp. Europe can do without you.

I see Pete Hegseth, that “super hero” 🥱in a suit, is being sleepy again!

After been giften a World Champions crown by a dubious set of “technical reasons” he now wants the new rules redefined because he doesn’t like the racing… move along Max. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formul...

For those continuing to minimise Covid, to criticise the measures taken to protect people must read this. Deaths could have been avoided, they weren’t because the Gov ignored advice. I’m sick of hearing people even in my family talk of Covid as an attack on civil liberties, not government failure

So it’s Saturday! Hard week so house stuff and music! Now I’m not a Nationalist (however you take that) I’m not even Scottish (well not recently, though my decent is predominantly Scots/Irish/Scandinavian)… but I do believe that Runrig are one of the finest bands to grace my ear drums!

So if you look… Feb -April Trump actions drove stocks down more than 7.5%…. This year Trump actions in March alone drove stocks down around 7.5%. Just looking at the way he performs it’s no wonder that he’s wildly known as a poor businessman but a great grifter….

An Omani citizen (from the straits’) view on the current conflict…. “This, too, shall pass,” Mr. Alflaiti said. “May God protect us all.”. In truth that stoicism may serve us well. The stock market took a plunge again, a year since the last Trump induced plunge… perhaps next yr another Trump plunge?

Women's History Month - 25 March: Jovita Idar “Women recognize their rights, proudly raise their chins, and face the struggle. The times of humiliation have passed, women are no longer men’s servants but their equals, their partners.” #WethePeople #Resist #ICRI #UnitedWeStand #WomensHistoryMonth

Anybody surprised that tax avoiding millionaires who have a political company masquerading as as a party have opaque finances. Corrupt liars I’ll be very glad if they were to pass on…

I don’t have a lot of sympathy for airline operators like EasyJet. I mean they’re pretty much always late and then when there is adverse weather they rush to say it’s not our fault…. Hard to believe it’s someone else’s fault when it’s no different from normal

🤔Mmmmm, global stocks off by 5%, can’t think why?

What’s wrong with this picture…. Answers on a ballot paper

@labouruk.bsky.social this is a leader….

So Just imagining this as a 40s style fancy dress… not hard when you listen to her statements and policies. I really think she’s just not very clever, or she doesn’t read the detail of briefs prepared by not very clever staff [read SPADs who have never worked]…

“Late on Thursday, Netanyahu denied he had dragged the US into the conflict, telling reporters: “Does anyone really think that someone can tell President Trump what to do?”” …. Errr I think Putin and Netanyahu have been doing it for years… www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

Stupid decision to cut funding… our politicians need to go to “Specsavers”

“I’m really not afraid of that,” he told reporters. “I’m really not afraid of anything.” A dangerous man… bone spurs and all. Trump’s Next Decision: Whether to Retrieve Iran’s Nuclear Fuel, Whatever the Risk www.nytimes.com/2026/03/17/u...

Why expect a man who has started 2 wars inraptured to his own ego, who has allegations [uninvestegated & therefore unproven to date] of paedophilia with girls as young as 12 attached to him, be expected to behave like anything other than a rapacious mad man www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

Women's History Month - 15 March: Susette La Flesche Tibbles ("Bright Eyes") "The legislation of the government has been directed rather to the protection of the rights of money and property than to the best good of the citizen." #WethePeople #Resist #ICRI #StrongerTogether #WomensHistoryMonth

The Trump administration lowered the authorization level for lethal force, broadened target categories, inflated threat assessments and fired inspectors general, according to more than a dozen current and former national security personnel.

“Being investigated”. I think the mass of Israeli’s see the Palestinians as dispensable… think on that. Family Outing in West Bank Ends in Hail of Israeli Gunfire www.nytimes.com/2026/03/15/w...

@labouruk.bsky.social I’m ashamed of you…. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

Just leave this up here… almost funny, tho’ Jim would say it’s “woke” … www.instagram.com/reel/DUqOsfO...

I’ve had it with the political mainstream…. Migration is not the problem, nor benefit scroungers, nor work-shy youth, nor any other “other”. It is the failure of our country to grasp the fact that the political classes [generally] represent those who want to generate personal wealth.

As a parent [not a mother I have to stress] I get this. It’s not a lack of love, but for some, I imagine, motherhood must seemed to have closed so many roads & added stress. Its not wrong to feel this way. Children are a blessing yes, but there dark days of struggle. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I going to suggest something… I know it will piss of all those tax exiles… we should have citizenship based taxation not residency based…. We should also base corporate tax on whole entity principles… (Starbucks Netherlands could not charge Starbucks UK for using the brand to avoid tax on revenue)

This is typical of the wealthy …. Dont tax me because I’m to important. I dont care if theyre displaced, inconvenienced or anything else; if you’re not prepared to pay tax make your own arrangements. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Lets be honest… really honest. NET ZERO IS NOT CHEAP. However the mendacious pro fossil fuel lobby and their adherents would have you believe that ruining the plannet and relying on magic is so much cheaper… as in cigarettes FOSSIL FUELS KILL; simples! www.theccc.org.uk/2026/03/11/c...

Farage believes in free speech openness and honesty… yeah right! www.instagram.com/reel/DVvfzBk...

Question what does “left leaning but not loony left” mean? I’m a safe socialist, don’t worry they’re much more left than me. Why “loony”, it’s pejorative. I dunno, but have a badge stick to it but don’t rubbish others. Me? Highly combustable socialist - left, humanist, no party 🥳

@lukecharters.bsky.social Jury Trial is more than a symbol, removing it won’t save time or clear the backlog, this is performative. You’re young never really lived the lives of your voters… did you ask any opinion of constituents, particularly those this bill flagships as beneficiaries… do your job!

I have a few friends from the USA, they’re lovely, balanced and socially inclined. Same for many other nationalities. I don’t know many deranged xenophobic mad people, from any country, definitely not from the USA. I don’t understand the type, I don’t understand how they think… that’s my weakness.

So instead of investing in society our labour government decided to ignore centuries of struggle and put justice in the hands of a few judges….

So please someone explain to my why me saying that the Israeli government and these settlers are murdering people and stealing land illegally. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

“…in due course” jesus mary and joseph this is somthing else to be ashamed of. To suffer abuse and then to be subject to a second injustice is further abuse. There is a principle that applies. The government know it @rachelmaskil.bsky.social have a word will you www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

@labouruk.bsky.social when did the electorate become an inconvenience? When did you become the party of Victorian paternalism and control. Yes you’ve done some good things but flip my gibbet you have some toxic masculinity going on! Come on get with the message while you still, can get socialist

Ok so let’s think about this… Trump crashed the stock market last year, made millions, trump crashed the stock market this year, made millions. Wondering if there is a pattern.

7 March 1930 | A Dutch Jewish boy, Izak Philip van Dijk, was born in Oss. In October 1942 he was deported to #Auschwitz and murdered in a gas chamber. --- ▶ Video about the first two gas chambers created near Auschwitz II-Birkenau: https://youtu.be/Rr6lF75fDmU

Listen Iran is an unsavoury and repressive regime, i shed no tears, but this fells like BS www.nytimes.com/2026/03/04/w...

EE used their prices by a value rather than a percentage… “to offer more clarity….” It’s just gouging @ofcom.bsky.social it’s a 15% rise instead of an inflation busting CPI plus 3.9% You really aren’t fit for purpose. Fixing rises is the problem … the problem is there is no competition and a cartel

Reading in the BBC about the numbers of GP’s opting for the private sector… mixed emotions. But in the end it comes down to years of Tory under investment and a lack of focus on PHC.

Farage’s attack on public sector pensions ignores reality: pensioner poverty costs more in health, housing and social care than decent retirement incomes. A race to the bottom weakens services and communities. If fairness matters, tax the better off like him and invest in better social structures

I’m shocked that Vanguard not only settled with republican states but agreed not to support climate action… don’t invest with Vanguard.

When I see this picture I see a sad old despot barely able to raise his arm. Amazes me how Americans ceded their democracy to this….

Jeeesuuus Starmer are you really so tone deaf. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

All the gnashing of teeth about “family voting “ feels incoherent… not sure if my biased views is strong but just not seeing a misogynistic Green voter in my minds eye.

Rachel Reeves says it’s “not right that people who don’t go to university are having to bear all the cost for others to do so”… she only paid a maximum of £7k …. A student today can expect to pay between £50k and £70k. Feels like someone is pulling up the drawbridge…. Tax folk like me more…

Patriotism; loyalty and commitment to one’s country and all its people. Farage uses the word loosely he adds self interest (his) and hatred of the other. He makes deals with foreign facist activists while criticising other foreigners as “parasitical invaders”. He is a deformed personality IMO obv

In a 13.8-billion-year-old expanding universe, Earth is a thin layer of life on a small rock orbiting an ordinary star. Everything we value depends on stable climate, healthy ecosystems, and biodiversity now under pressure. Protecting the planet safeguards our only known home. Ecosystems matter!
