👍 Good news for the UK, which you won't see reported in the news media. 👏 (The hacks are too busy in the political gutter).

OMFG I had to go and check that this ACTUALLY happened.
Since when does the BBC ever do chyrons with a political party's branding, rather than their own? Not to mention this is during a pre-election campaign purdah.

Johnson plotted with Bannon to bring May down, which they succeeded in doing. No wonder May didn't trust him. I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him
This time last year, March ➡️April 2025 I was billed £157 by Octopus. March➡️April 2026, with Solar Panels x 8 and 10kw Battery, I was billed £34! That's electricity and gas

According to news sources, reports of my "chaos" is worrying investors.
This sounds like victim blaming & is the fault of ignorant human intransigence.
The Mandelson affair, obv. I’m dreading the upcoming drama in H of C, as everyone parades faux outrage. The appointment was a complete cock-up. No-one emerges well. It’s possible rules were followed, AND bad decisions taken, AND this is not the end of all days. I dread Badenoch’s posturing most.
Meanwhile outside of Westminster bubble:
"Starmer is doing the best job that anybody could do, particularly internationally."
This country (the UK) is going f*cking crazy over an appointment made by a Labour PM, not because it proved to be a bad decision and led to a sacking, but because it was made by a "Labour" PM.
Mandelson and his friend Epstein are the bad guys.
Starmer isn't Boris bloody Johnson either.
Wake up UK.
Watching BBC News 24 making a massive fuss over the failed Vetting in relation to Mandelson
Funny how Johnson failed Vetting but was allowed to be Prime Minister (eventually), yet nobody on the BBC or any other media organisation made such a fuss over it 🙄
When the US govt says it 'negotiating' with Iran, they actually mean they're negotiating business deals designed to protect countries from Iran . . .
Got to be worth a follow 😁
@straithormuz.bsky.social
Ahh . . . so Trump et al are trying to sell drones to Countries bordering Iran, to defend themselves, and make a quick buck. They're not negotiating peace, they're blackmailing other Countries 🧐
Meanwhile, in Ukraine, Zelensky is successfully selling Drones to those same Countries 😅
Ahh . . .the Editor of Country Squire and saviour of the working class 😅
Woody Allen said 80% of life is showing up.
If 80% of us showed up to vote, Reform wouldn’t stand a chance.
Voters have just today left to register to vote for the local elections taking place across England on 7 May. Anyone who wants to take part must register before 11.59pm tonight.
Registering takes minutes at gov.uk/register-to-vote. Just need name, address & National Insurance number. Pass it on.
🤞🏻
I couldn't hate the US Govt any more . . . 😡
Primarily, we have a media and social media problem…
People are - deliberately - not informed.
The agenda of those who own the media is in direct conflict with the best interests of the country. And the agenda is a race to the bottom, removing rights and protections to better exploit people.
In case you’re confused - the £100k of tax Richard Tice failed to pay here is totally different to the
- £92k of tax not properly withheld on dividends
- the £600k side-stepped via highly aggressive tax avoidance
Industrial scale grifting revealed by @danneidle.bsky.social and Gabriel Pogrund
Jenrick assumes that most people will 'defer' to him and believe what he says. Tories have been doing this . . .forever (Reform is, after all, just a sub-group of the Tories)
The EHRC thinks a big bill is going to stop us, because we’re not backed by billionaires or the government. But they’re wrong.
We always knew this would be a long and hard fight. We are going nowhere.

Nigel Farage doesn't want the NHS to be funded by general taxation.
Or to put it clearly, he wants to get rid of the NHS.
In 2019 it was reported that 🤡Johnson was a threat to national security. Yet the Tories still chose him to be Leader.
I'm not quite sure how you've come to this conclusion
Media outlets should spend less time writing about the “legitimate grievances” of people who loathe immigration and more time addressing how racist reporting about migrants, Muslims, Black folks, and other racialised communities has cultivated the fascism we are enduring today. Just saying.
Yesterday we had a journalist post on Threads to say the press doesn't like Labour and holds Labour to higher standards than other parties.
It confirms what we all knew and see every day.
But shocking that someone in the media bubble actually said it out loud!
I can't 'like' this. I'm desperate for the war to be over, and Putin defeated
