Best of luck to @libdemshk.bsky.social candidates across England in today's Local Elections, especially in #Lincoln!

And, like so many in Lincolnshire, I'm hoping Andrea Jenkyns doesn't win the Greater #Lincolnshire Mayoral Election. She'd achieve little for our brilliant county.

I'm glad that prescription prices won't be going up this year - they are high enough as it is in England.

If only we could afford to make prescriptions free for everyone.

The settler originally from Texas is an horrendous human being, discriminating against and using dehumanising language against Palestinians so fervently and using his religion to justify using that language.

Can't believe I just heard a gun carrying Israeli ultra-religious nationalist in the Louis Theroux documentary #TheSettlers saying that he doesn't even recognise "Palestinian" as a word.

Absolutely shocking. Vile.

Watching the Louis Theroux documentary #TheSettlers exposing the more extremist ultra-nationalist religious element of the Israeli settler population living in the occupied West Bank.

Eye-opening is an understatement.

A bird with a striking appearance perched on a wooden branch. It has a pale gray head with a distinctive pointed crest, bright orange beak, and warm tan-colored body with reddish accents on its wings. The bird's dark eye and alert posture give it a charming, inquisitive look against a soft, blurred green background.

The cousin of the Northern Cardinal, the Pyrrhuloxia is a bird of the desert southwest. This is a female that I saw in Arizona a few years ago.

ยฃ85.9bn wealth transfer to the rich.

Since 2022 UK govt has sold gilts/bonds acquired with QE at a loss.

It is also paying interest to banks on deposits they hold with the Bank of England to facilitate interbank transactions. Unnecessary.

ยฃ85.9bn enriched the rich, inflicted harms on others.

It's quite fun winding up the MAGA cult on X. They just can't accept their Dear Leader can't make a mistake. The contortions over the tariffs debacle are ridiculous. Sad.

In May's Local Elections, Labour are defending just 350 or so seats, compared to the Tories' 1400. Starmer could lose 100 but Badenough faces SEVEN TIMES as many.

The winners are likely to be the Lib Dems & the Greens.

Voters switching to Deform to teach Labour a lesson are repeating Brexit.

Kemi Badenoch doesn't have particularly good leadership skills that's certainly clear.

I don't think she'll be Tory leader in a few years time.

Wish the 100s of working class students from Teesside who I taught over the years had as much confidence in what they know as Kemi Badenoch has in what she doesn't.

March 21, 2025 These days, I keep coming back to the quotation recorded by journalist Ron Suskind in a New York Times Magazine article in 2004.

"Democrats are holding their own packed events in Republican districts. ... Today, 11,000 people turned out to hear Sanders and AOC in Republican-led Greeley, Colorado. Another 34,000 turned out in Denver." @hcrichardson.bsky.social

Sojourner Truth (1797-1883), abolitionist, women's rights advocate, who chose to be photographed with her knitting. As an enslaved person, she had knitted/spun endlessly and when free later in life, she taught knitting to former enslaved women aiding self-sufficiency #womensart
