Reform UK, vote Nigel Farage if you think The Minimum Wage is too high. The richest 4% earning £100,000+ pay too much tax. The State Pension needs to be means tested. We should get rid of the NHS. The retirement age is too low. If you hate yourself, vote Farage.

Having a bonfire? Gather your wood early if you like but not on the bonfire spot. Move the wood & build the fire just a couple of hours before needed. Estimated that thousands of hedgehogs are burned alive every year through not doing this.

📌 Kudos Rachel Maddow for breaking this down for us 🐥

When you vote for Reform this is what you are voting for.

Droll sense of humour right on point. youtube.com/shorts/4Iu3g...

Elon Musk deleted this Tweet. You wouldn't want to repost it... oops.

And so the final day is under way. The game no one wants to be in but no one wants to lose. Also the Marseillaise reminding me what a dirge we have for the English anthem. Good luck. @francaqc.bsky.social @blueskykiwifly.bsky.social @sorry-iamcanadian.bsky.social @shroommuse.bsky.social

Dear MSM, You bent right over. Now that he has all of you in the same position, he moves to Hunger Games May the odds be ever in your favor.

Welcome to 1984.

Could this be top TV? Timed to coincide with trumps arrival. "Channel 4 is going to air more than 100 of the president’s untruths. And each one will be “extensively fact checked,” says C4. 10 p.m. UK time on Wednesday. @jewelthin.bsky.social @scubapopeye.bsky.social @implausibleblog.bsky.social

If you live in California, Net Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania or Virginia make sure you are registered to vote NOW!! Start the buddy check in system and make sure your friends and family are registered to vote as well! Ask every one you come in contact with! The mail carrier, cashiers, anyone!

Yesterday, the largest far-right protest in UK history marched through London, led by racist Tommy Robinson. Today, we say: They don’t speak for us — and they won’t have the last word. This Wednesday we come together against Trump and for a better future. Do everything to be there.

Christmas build is earlier than ever this year. Last week Sainsbury's had the mince pies out, this wk tins of chocolate. M&S have Xmas shortbread out in bulk. Indicative of struggling customers, cost spreading rather than last minute big spend.

A new trade deal with South America called the EU-Mercosur deal would bring more food grown with banned pesticides into Europe, threatening our health and the livelihood of European farmers. Act NOW to protect Europe’s food standards #StopMercosur action.wemove.eu/sign/2025-02...

Bloomin' awesome from Raskin. Hopefully Starmer and co were watching.

From 'The Hill' ref the session with the epstein survivors and Mike Johnson. We shall see... or will this come back to bite him on the arse?

Can't believe how few signatures there are. If you're British and not a racist arsehole, get on and sign.

If you're one of the many who streamed and downloaded the album - thank you. You'll have helped make some youngsters from Nottingham very very happy. #8 UK album chart above Oasis & Billie Eilish. Not bad for an indie.🤘🤘

This is not the same country i fought for,Fuxk Trump & His fascist regime,it's beyond time to do what South Korea did Remove & arrest our dictator,if anyone thinks I'm overreacting Trump's using DOJ for intimidation & revenge You say anything about him you can be next,he's fascist prove me wrong 👇

This type of zone was banned in Europe as hotbeds of corruption and crime. Tories though great idea and started the ball rolling. So far Labour have done nothing to halt this.

Microsoft showing just how disconnected they are from the end user. Win 10 support ends - you will be vulnerable - *just* upgrade to in 11. Yeah, where's the contribution to a new computer able to run win 11? B*stards. Need to learn about Linux.

4 piece emo-pop-punk band from Nottingham, England taking on the big labels with their 4th album launch. I think running toe to toe with someone called Sabrina Carpenter 🤷🤷 Last push for streams on Spotify or other streaming svc Give the little guys a boost, who knows? You might like their music.🤘

🤷 shameless push for some friends. Love British indie pop-punk? Check out As December Falls latest open.spotify.com/album/7Cmc0R... No label, no marketing, no money, up for top 10 UK launch week chart posn. Have a listen, give a boost, stream, download, nothing to lose, might find a great new band🤘

Holy shit.

Rural life... When a candlelit supper sounds romantic but in reality it's just your 3rd power cut of the day.

We cannot recycle our way out of plastic pollution. That has been known for years. Recycle most but slow production. The failed treaty hosted by the UN is proof that oil industries over-influnce & bully authorities into submission. Ratio of oil lobyist to scientist is 4:1. tinyurl.com/DigDugCIEL

A reminder that, as women's rights in the US go backwards, in some places mutilation (torture) is a social norm. Do these petitions help? No idea, but silence certainly won't. secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en/... If you really need it, here's the explainer on FGM www.unicef.org/protection/f...

The media is not covering because of Trump threats. Keep posting resistance efforts. It’s important to know we are not alone. Hold the line.

A good thing about being older (60+) is gaining confidence & dumping long held inhibitions Today I voluntarily danced with the wife, in public, in daylight & without alcohol. Still crap at it, can't dance, never could. Now I just care less about people's opinions (real or imaginary) Today was good🤘

What happens if you don’t do background checks or training for thousands of people and you give them all total authority? ICE has been caught looting and destroying property at Pittsburgh restaurants. They even tried to break into the safes. They loaded food, supplies and equipment into vehicles /

So...what's the point?

The insanity of Epson printers. Supplied with piddly 'setup' cartridges that run out in no time. Firmware screwed to fail if non Epson cartridges are used. New printer £50-60. Set of genuine cartridges £80. F. that, going back to Canon. £80 printer, £45 full ink set. Bollox to Epson.

Keep the petitions going. Eventually, someone will listen. action.wemove.eu/sign/2025-08...

We know the repugs are busy cooking the books and putting sycophants into positions of power ready to dismiss forthcoming elections. Found this excellent summary on Huffpost, well worth reading. www.huffpost.com/entry/donald...

If everyone in the UK signs this petition today, Government will act and everyone’s electricity bills will be significantly cheaper tomorrow - but until we tell them it’s important they’ll keep delaying petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...
