Immigration is a beautiful thing and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise ❤️

Labour might wonder why, less than a year into a new government promising “change”, people are giving up on it in droves. So let me help it out with a few clues.
1. Cutting disability benefits
2. Freezing Local Housing Allowance.
3. Maintaining the cruel, Malthusian two-child benefit cap ....

Aww, congratulations to her and many years of happiness now as a married person. 💖

Leave the ECHR, that's the dream of fascists.

Let’s just remind ourselves about Farage’s big meal ticket idea again. And no, this isn’t about how the Tories did it, this is just Brexit reality. And Farage would make the deal *even worse*. Pariah status, unreliable, ruined UK howling about immigration and moaning that everything is broken.

Because he is rich and rich people don't care about the environment, and their goal is just to keep accumulating wealth. They will destroy everything if they are let.

It's not exactly subtle, is it?

The BBC is utterly beholden to the right. Why else would it fear a podcast about heat pumps? | George Monbiot The broadcaster behaves like Starmer’s government: suppress the left, cave to your critics, and undermine your own survival, writes Guardian columnist George Monbiot

The BBC is institutionally biased towards the right and the far right, and here's the proof: the results of an almost perfect before-and-after experiment.

It truly surprises me that it's so easy to smear a band, who are not committing any genocide or are taking the land of people, than actually focus on the governments and their allies, who are the ones enabling the genocide of Palestinias are undergoing. Power to Kneecap!

Massive Attack: "Kneecap are not the story. Gaza is the story. Genocide is the story" Massive Attack have issued a statement on the ongoing Kneecap controversy, stressing that “Gaza is the story” and “genocide is the story”.

Kneecap are not the story.
Gaza is the story.
Genocide is the story. ✊️

Labour’s great nature sellout is the worst attack on England’s ecosystems I’ve seen in my lifetime | George Monbiot The horrifying planning bill, which rips up environmental protections, was drafted with CEOs in mind. We know because Keir Starmer told us, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

1. Because this issue is critical, but has received remarkably little coverage, here's a thread pulling out the key themes from my article yesterday, on the Planning and Infrastructure Bill, which puts decades of environmental protections to the torch. 🧵 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

NGL, LB and his daughter reaction videos is the best idea his social media team could ever have. Sweet dad and daughter interaction. Can't wait for the next ones.

In years to come we'll look at this era and wonder why in light of a global pandemic, economic inflation, growing inequality and technological upheaval we decided to make the private lives of a minority considerably worse.

Oh okay, I'll keep an eye about it when it comes our way, thank you.

I hope that is the case as he deserves only the best for the rest of his life.

Would you consult experts to find a better alternative to prevent fleas on pets, please?

Fleetwood Mac's mind were truly great. I miss them creating amazing work such as the Say You Will album. The art cover of that album was inspired by the Japanese film, Double Suicide. My favourite songs are probably Red Rover, Come and Everybody Finds Out.

What is The Pitt now? I haven't heard about that one in the UK.

He's gone through do much the past few years, that I am sure he has plenty of inspiration. Even if his muse (nemesis) is no longer the main inspiration.

It doesn't look like for the looks of it. Leelee is doing Leelee things, Stella loves her horses and Will? Who knows, but doubt he 'works' on anything music related. LB music really dies with him. I still have hopes that LB will release a new album, even if that's the last one he ever releases.

I love Leelee's love for his dad. Anything to make him smile after the tough years that he has had. Originally, I thought they were going to sing af she can sing, but I am glad is this cute father/ daughter reaction videos.

I think, with everything happening in the world, if you mock a woman’s teeth because she chose not get veneers done (which would involve filing down her natural teeth to points and shoving fakes over the top) you might be a piece of shit.

Listening to the "Extended Play" EP by Fleetwood Mac and I, man, it hits hard. I forgot that Lindsey Buckingham can play the piano as well.

The truth is, there is only one language that Labour speaks and that is the language of political pain. For so long as Keir Starmer thinks we'll all go crawling back to Labour at the next Election he will continue to court the Reform vote. We need to tell him we won't.

X is not worth 33 billion. He basically just paid himself $33B from another company, presumably to pay off his debts from the initial buy because he knows he'll never be able to raise the capital from X itself.

He is his own ponzi scheme.

It is, Clare, it is. He is such talented man, but I don't think he loves himself much and keeps going back to the people who cause him distress. The only thing I can say is that if that gives him peace, it will probably help him to deal with whatever regrets he has.

Good morning Britain – prepare to be told yet again that decline is all you deserve | Owen Jones It’s Groundhog Day: the party may change but even under Labour, the script remains stubbornly the same, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones

We are condemned to an eternity of decline.

We'll spend our lives being told by politicians they need to cut some more, claiming this time prosperity will come.

We have to save ourselves from this nightmare 👇

I just hope Lindsey is okay and that he doesn't get disappointed again by those people.
