The latest pathetic attempt by Reform UK supporters to distance themselves from Nathan Gill and #ReformRussianBribes is to say ‘Reform UK didn’t exist when he took the bribes’.

UKIP > Independent > Brexit Party > Reform UK

That’s the path Gill and Farage took TOGETHER.

I’d have thought nothing cuts more against our precious British values than selling out your country for Russian bribes…

And yet Reform, the right‑wing press, and all those self‑styled guardians of these values have nothing to say

…funny that.

Ex-leader of Reform UK in Wales sentenced to 10.5 years in prison for taking bribes for pro-Russia interviews and speeches.

Who else was involved,?

Party can now add treason to racism, misogyny, islamaphobia, economic illiteracy as its electoral credentials.

Here's a practical way to respond to the climate crisis, lower air pollution, ease traffic congestion, and make public transportation more appealing and convenient. Iowa City's success story with its free buses shows this strategy can work in lots of other places, too. (Gift link)

Gravel riding.
My mate plans routes and you ride for free.
All in the Midlands and join them on the day or, do it solo.
Self supported and free.
Just seen advertised Gravel Rides by a company and you cough up £66.00 for the privilege.

Pembrokeshire Dangler!
How come I’ve never heard of it!
The Pembrokeshire Dangler is a convergence zone which forms a line of continuous showers aligned north-south across the Irish Sea; often as snow….
It can go and dangle elsewhere

UK bank customer protection rises to £120,000.

One of many ways in which the state supports banking industry.

The state acts as the lender of last resort, bails out, hands subsidies, covers-up bank crimes, execs rarely prosecuted.

They still resent paying taxes, engage in antisocial practices.

Thames Water bidder offering £1bn extra cash injection.

30%+ of the customer bill covers interest payments.

Any private owner would want profit, dividends, sewage dumping will continue, customers will be fleeced.

Must end the profit motive. Nationalise water industry.

These days don’t last long enough.
Chilly with wall to wall 🌞 and very nice.
After a strength and conditioning session this morning, shower, light breakfast and off to the coast path to the beach for a walk plus, lunch at the Catrock.

Cornwall can get stuffed for all I care.
1st, they overwhelmingly voted for Brexit, then lost out on many millions of funding per year.
You'd think the Cornish would have learnt to never believe Nige Al Faraj, yet here they go again, setting themselves up to get screwed over again.

After all the Rouvy Racing and missing out on two reasonable days we had this week, I managed to get the winter wheels and tyres plus mudguards fitted for our muddy, wet and gravelly lanes.
Loved it!
Look out for the Land Rover that’s shrunk in all that rain!

😮 A sobering statistic for Road Safety Week... In the UK, SUVs are three times more likely to kill a child under the age of 10 and heavier cars are more likely to be involved in fatal collisions.
