Big Cats 24/7 Cliff hanger! (tree hanger)

Am back in prepper mode (like the Covid days) down to Iran war warnings. Enjoyed the potato section, which I'm doing in bags. Also Alicante tomatoes, and some kind of green bean...any recommendation for those? #GardenersWorld

Is Yvette chanelling Trump in her non-negotiating negotiations? #Iran

Wondering if the #BMA like many right wing associations, are wishing to turn the clock back to privatisation? Were they out with the people on Saturday's march? Hope I'm wrong and they were. #r4today

By, normalising Trump's law breaking...we get this! 👇

www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... "Imagine being one of the thousands of US marines and paratroopers now deploying to the Gulf. With a commander-in-chief like Trump, who needs enemies?"

6. So it ends up back in the hands of the state. Only, not our state. It is part owned by the governments of China, Abu Dhabi, Qatar etc. The only state that has not been allowed to buy up our privatised utilities is our own state.

So it begins. There today, here tomorrow

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... Hey Iran hackers, Don't suppose you happen to have the data from a phone lost in Pimlico last October? Asking for a friend.

www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m... Another f_ckwit joins the clan of Trump, Nethanyahu, Putin et al. How the hell did the planet come to this! Confirms my posit: For years, Israel & Saudis aim for full control of Med coast and a pipeline. Hence Gaza, Lebanon.

There are subsets in this interesting thread which should be opened for the full picture. 🧵

Who is that Tory dork on the committee just now repeatedly stating this country is at war? NO WE ARE NOT. Performative, wearing a union jack. Talking constzntly about defence businesses.

ICE is not Trumps idea. Hitler got there first.

Anything #Trump does or says after markets close on Fridays, is more to do with share prices for his family and friends, than defence. He should be locked up at the Hague for this alone. #MakePalsRichAgain Buy options Saturday, sell on Monday.

labourhub.org.uk/2026/03/23/i... Is the UK now a colony of an out-of-control US? #Starmer once more rewrites his own words @johnmcdonnellmp.bsky.social "...Every war has been presented as ‘defensive’ including Iraq, and Blair allowed a vote."

....I have no spur To prick the sides of my intent, but only Vaulting ambition, which o’erleaps itself And falls on th’ other— Macbeth 1.7 #ShakespeareSunday

labourhub.org.uk/2026/03/21/k... This is a great article by Bill Bowring, who knew #Starmer. Facts, and no elaboration, leaves us to make our own minds up. "Ah, gracious lord, these days are dangerous. Virtue is chok'd with foul ambition" (Henry VI.pt2 . 1)

My #gardenersworld visit was delayed by a day (out on the razz) but had a lovely day in the garden today, warm till 6pm!

Reading the full article, I'm shocked, I was reading stuff like the Cruel Sea from 11 onwards, then Orwell & Huxley - 1984, Brave New World, wtf is #BernadineEvaristo banned? Get rid of the graphic novels to improve reading skills, yes. Is this Philipson? @andyburnham.bsky.social

I'd replace the word unorthodox, with...childish. IMO #Trump sends his children in, clutching the Art of the Deal, whilst all along he's prepping for the attack. His untrustworthiness will destroy USA. Good read from Wintour. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

www.theguardian.com/world/commen... A clear and present danger. Must read. "Research clearly shows that the far right, once they gain power, have a high probability of dismantling democratic institutions.”

When you complete NYT #Strands look up the answers on google and still don't have a clue what it's on about. #OneOfThoseDays

It’s crystal clear now that Trump has lost control of this war. He badly misjudged Iran’s ability to retaliate. The region is on fire. 1/ I’m going to explain to you in this🧵what I’ve learned - in part from closed door briefings - about the four biggest current crises.

Landed in London. The United Kingdom is one of Canada’s oldest, and most-trusted, partners. In a more uncertain world, we’re working closely together to create greater certainty, security, and prosperity on both sides of the Atlantic.

Switzerland has closed its airspace to US military flights directly related to the war against Iran, Bloomberg reports.

⚠️ US Embassy in Baghdad: “U.S. citizens should leave Iraq now.”

Israeli politicians and officers are openly threatening to occupy large part of southern Lebanon and ethnically cleanse its population, permanently. This could very well go ahead in the next few days.

Following latest #IranWar headlines the most popular term on X is F*ck-Off 😂😂

First #GardenersWorld of the proper 2026 season this evening on BBC2 at 8pm. And I've decided this year to probably concentrate on just posting along on here, rather than Twitter as well... doing two live social media platforms simultaneously was a bit of a hassle last year. Trowels at the ready!

Mayor Mamdani condemns Jake Lang's 'white supremacist' rally and explosive devices found at Gracie Mansion, resulting in arrests.

www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... Until he's gone the world should treat USA as a threat to democracy.

I oppose the decision to allow Trump to use UK bases in the bombing of Iran. I fear this will embroil the UK in attacks that breach international law and cause civilian deaths. I've submitted these Parliamentary Questions to the Government. The public has a right to know.

Declaring "Mission Accomplished" - that always works out well for US Presidents

OpenAI head of robotics just resigned over company deal with the Pentagon saying… “Surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got”

Well, well, well. Seems #Iran is 2 steps ahead of the USA No point in making Israel the key location. Time for the techbros to talk to #Rubio, to negotiate, use diplomacy. #AI Data centres = target. Future game changer...anywhere. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...
