Who the hell is this man? Can we sue him for getting elected under false pretences?

I can’t believe what I’m hearing most of the time… I made the mistake of thinking he was an intelligent man who knew what he was doing. Huge, angry disappointment.

I think recent events have shown that they are further from socialism than they’ve ever been. What I need is an old-fashioned socialist party, not tories in (weak) disguise, chasing whatever votes they can get.

I never understand why point 2 is even a thing!

Grim.

I’m also getting really concerned about the lobby for tactical voting, telling people that a vote for Lib Dem or Green is a vote lost. We have to vote for what we believe, or we will never get anywhere other that this Tories-in-Disguise (but turns out not very good disguise) nightmare!

If only they asked people who actually knew about this sort of thing… and then did what they suggested rather than making this shit up just to be nasty.

I question if it’s that common is it a “disorder”?

And maybe the issue is a sociological one… if we just treated everyone with kindness, acceptance and respect as fellow humans it just wouldn’t matter?

This will freak out the Toilet Police completely!

If the last slide said “you’re” instead of “your” or even deleted, and the source cited, I’d be more inclined to share.

Maybe we are just exhausted… Brexit… austerity… covid… more austerity under a Labour government. They’ve managed to flatten us.

Language and Thought… I’m experiencing a natural slowing down at the moment.  Remember the slowing down that happened during that first covid lockdown? When we all stayed home and had time to appreciate what we had…

New blog post today… slowing up and having a think…

Same here. Feels as if we needn’t have bothered doesn’t it?

I’m an artist working with drawing, textiles, installations and sound… Latest blog post talks about looking back in order to move forward…

This makes me howl in anguish at what we cast aside… foolishness driven by personal vanities. We need to do better.

I spent yesterday in the woods of my youth, humming and recording material for a new sound piece for #juxtaposeartfair in June

Great thanks for this!

Could have and should have.

To be honest I’m finding that’s a good thing. I could do with a break.

In 2023 I made this art installation to protest about the fact that 37% of the children in my area were living in poverty. After these @teamlabouruk.bsky.social cuts how many more twigs will I need to add?

I wonder how many card-ripper-uppers there are??

Yes …. A party that is ACTUALLY left wing would be a nice change eh?

Right then… I ripped up my Labour membership card… then this latest budget nonsense has me reeling with fury. Doing my research now before possibly joining the Greens… any thoughts about why I should or shouldn’t?

Things are bad if they’re targeting the Quakers…?

I love this Heather… a reminder of the times when we were all simultaneously numbed and hyper-aware…

Better start hiding the good books now then…
