Incoming Hungarian PM Péter Magyar calls for the UK to rejoin the European Union:
"I remember when I was a diplomat in Brussels... We were able to influence decisions. At the time, the Brits were also part of the EU. Let's hope they will rejoin."
I feel much more anger towards the British pundits & politicians who failed to understand the depravity & derangement of Donald Trump than I do the ones who failed to understand the idiocy of Brexit. But it doesn’t really matter because they’re exactly the same bloody people.
True! Helping daughter with her new house and working with a local charity. So, still important work but less noticable!
This is excellent.
Absolutely scandalous that GB News essentially has a licence to spread misinformation like this without OFCOM stepping in.

He was certainly afraid of Vietnam-style combat in Vietnam.
Sarah Sackman: "The British governments position is clear, we want to see a de-escalation of this conflict"
.. and that's why we're allowing the US to use British military bases to bomb Iran!
Sackman & the govt are treating us like fools.
Thank god. A great win for Hannah Spencer and the Greens, for #GortonAndDenton and for progressive voters. Made even greater by the huge Reform sulk. And the fact that the hateful Goodwin got whooped.
Now Labour, look to your left because you will not win from the right. We’re sick of that failure.
Are you watching Dirty Business? I can't believe how much water companies have gotten away with. They're putting profit before public health - it’s a scandal and the Government MUST take action! Sick of sewage? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pr...

ee.co.uk is my UK broadband/mobile phone provider, having taken over BT's provision, and has simply an appalling website to interact with. Whoever would have thought I would miss BT?
Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.
Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.
They are not the same.
We flounced out of the EU on the say-so of politicians who lied to us. And what a total shitshow that’s turned out to be. The polar opposite of what they promised. Now the call to flounce out of the ECHR. By the same people. Telling the same lies. Has the country been kicked in the head by a horse?

Here I am in 2020 in the flimsiest, most pitful PPE - like so many other NHS staff, some of whom died from the Covid they caught in their hospitals.
Tory peer Michelle Mone - who today lost her legal case & must repay the govt £122m - dares to claim she’s been ‘scapegoated’.
What, Michelle? 🧵
PPE fraud comes home to roost!

🔴BBC Accused of Pro-Reform Bias as Lib Dems Launch Campaign to End ‘Wall to Wall’ Farage Coverage
They accuse the BBC of “following Farage around like a lost puppy” and have complained to Ofcom to demand fair coverage

It's no surprise that Nigel Farage hardly ever bothers to visit Clacton or turn up at Parliament. When he was an MEP, his attendance record was 748th out of 751. He's a workshy grifting gobshite.
This too should be in the Media non-stop for a week until Nigel Farage is forced to resign.
This is how dictatorships behave
Bluesky is better than Twitter for academic research discussions.

I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees.
No refugee underfunded a school.
No refugee closed a hospital.
No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled.
We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!
But a non-horsey one!
Hope it continues to go well! My 10-year-old metal/ceramic hip is great.
FIFA should pull all of the 2026 World Cup matches scheduled to be played on US soil & reassign them to venues in Canada.
That includes the World Cup final scheduled to be played at the Meadowlands.
This is not a country suited to host an international event now & won’t be until 2029.
