I detest Labour but take a look at Chris Mason's analysis on the BBC website. The Beeb have opened up every negative story about Labour/Starmer for comments. The two negative stories about Farage/Reform not opened up. Local election story however was opened up to comment. Bias is off the scale.

We should make it illegal for MPs to use public toilets and changing rooms, and if you see someone you think might be an MP using one you can confront them, and they have to carry their Westminster pass and show it to you, and then you can kick them out. But, like, in a respectful supportive way.

Congratulations!! Now's a great time: join.greenparty.org.uk

why can't I delete other people's posts

I am currently on Menorca. Here are some milky way shots of the island of light that I took over the years.

Meet the new toilet monitor, same as the old toilet monitor

Remember to call it Labour’s bathroom ban as they love to claim ownership of progressive legislation they’ve brought in so they need to claim ownership of segregation as well

So ADHD and Autism is the last target for the cause of society's problems, not politicians receiving bribes from Millionaires or an inept Government. Nope, definitely small boats and people who may need a little bit more help to get through life 😔

they're replacing libraries with a guy who just says shit

44% of children living in poverty are living in a households where someone is disabled. And this Government are hammering disabled households. e.g: In April Labour’s cut to the UC health element kicked in, which will take £3,000 a year from 730,000 sick & disabled people on already low incomes.

It’s very hard to digest how the explicit antimuslim racism on display in the streets of London on Saturday is passing by with no consequences. Very hard not to feel like we’re regarded as second class citizens and fair game to be sacrificed on the alter of pacifying angry voters. Very hard & scary.

Reform are on C4 News and seem to have sent, in lieu of a spokesperson, a bottle of 19 Crimes wine

You Centrists hate disabled people and will find any means to sugarcoat your dogshit opinions as somehow sensible when you are just repulsive neoliberals with dogshit opinions

Yesterday Far Right leader Tommy Robinson and his followers openly called for Islam to be removed from the UK and us Muslims to be remigrated. If he had said this about Jews, quite rightly, there would be a national response. But it has been eerily quiet today.

The government has secretly imposed a “stealth” real-terms cut to the maximum amount disabled people can receive through the Access to Work disability employment scheme. #AccessToWork #DWP www.disabilitynewsservice.com/labour-minis...

Never seen this tree being utilised like this before and I've literally seen thousands of images of it. Excellent by Damian.

I now have to take time out of my day to arrange opt-outs for my family’s medical files; but apparently this doesn’t apply to minor children? Incandescent doesn’t even cover my rage. Sold off by Wes Streeting to the highest fucking fascist bidder.

Wes Streeting just gave your address, your ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, if you are cis or trans, if you've ever had an abortion, an addiction, are disabled in anyway and a million other pieces of info about you, to a far right tech company the UK government has no control over.

As is now painfully obvious, political centrism (government by neoliberal technocrats) is in its final death throes. The only beneficiary of their demise is the racist, nativist, xenophobic, idiot-right. The only viable alternative to the catastrophe of their rise is an avowedly antifascist left.

My fun encounter with the police. My girlfriend was away for the weekend and I'd locked myself out. I smashed the back door window. Student house next door and one of them rang the police. 5 mins after I was back in the house I'm smacked over the head with a truncheon. No warning.

Government documents prove that the “right to try” reforms at the centre of Labour’s “landmark” plans to push more sick and disabled people into employment are “worthless” and “a disgrace”, disabled critics have concluded. #DWP #RightToTry www.disabilitynewsservice.com/labours-land...

This painting is titled "Big Step II" and is part of the "Fractured Light" series by contemporary artist Michele Poirier-Mozzone. The piece captures a dynamic, low-angle perspective of a figure in a red swimsuit stepping through water. It is known for its impressionistic style.

If you're into multi day hiking / wild camping YT videos, Eli and her dog Otto are a great watch. Always amazing scenery and Eli is super grounded and such a lovely gentle person. Otto is a joy too.

Whereas this was the Met Police’s response to a Tommy Robinson / Stephen Yaxley-Lennon post on X in which he uses a racially aggravated slur:

The right to try was the main reason many Labour MPs voted in favour for the changes to UC. It's almost like the govt told a pack of lies to force the bill through with no intention of ever doing the few good things it contained. And they wonder why we don't fvcking trust them. Shitehawks.

Polanski being called antisemitic while Farage pretends to speak out against antisemitism is too fucking much.

£4.10 for salad cream in Tesco Express. Wtf

Drinking taxpayer subsidised booze at work, and laughing at us whilst they do it.

And the man at the back said, "Everyone attack!” and it turned into a ballroom grift. And the girl in the corner said, "Boy, I wanna warn ya, it'll turn into a ballroom grift."

Wirral people, friend just sent me this from FB.

Yip. And we disabled trans allies have been warning about it for years. I note the attack on disabled people on benefits AND disability support for students in there too. When will the uk media be held accountable for the real harm it does to society and peoples lives

Block, block, blockity block.

Anyone on the left who wasn’t actively involved from 2015-19 needs to know what’s coming. 1, they’re going to throw multiple, often contradictory lies at the wall to see what sticks. Polanski will be simultaneously weak and strong, timid and aggressive, passive and dictatorial, old fashioned and

I've been ringing the alarm on this for a while, it's REALLY apparent when you look into the language lawmakers are using to justify healthcare denial for autism and/or ADHD (especially here in the UK). acting like the mild course correction on centuries of underdiagnosis is somehow overdiagnosis

I’ve been hearing so much anger and disappointment from frontline workers about the BBC investigation into fraudulent asylum claims. One of the most damning responses has come from one of the experts they interviewed, solicitor Ana Gonzalez. It’s really worth reading her response in full:

Fair to say the stench from Stanlow is pretty fucking awful today. Whenever we get an easterly Ellesmere Port stinks ( more than usual ). No idea how those living in Elton/Ince put up with this every day.

How far up Netanyahu's arse can this government get? Still arresting pensioners for holding bits of cardboard but cutting the funding to the unit documenting the rape, torture and murder of an entire fucking people. Fuck'em. I can't vote for these people. @labouruk.bsky.social

Guy up the road has had his motability BMW taken off him and has a new BYD in it's place. When he picked it up he was told the adaptions that he needed cost £7500 more than the BMW. BMW has a specific line devoted to disability cars and they rarely need further adaptions post production. 🤦
