Grumpy grandad! Disability issues. The great outdoors. Surprisingly broad music tastes.
BBC coverage of #Glasto picking up political flak for broadcasting 2 acts. Coverage is fine by me. Dont watch if it annoys you.

ReformUK’s agenda to stop new local gov. officers joining the LG pension scheme, and reducing pay deals to those already in the scheme is despicable.

Keir Starmer has lived in North London for 40 years, a multicultural area where migrants are welcome & play important roles in the economy & public services. Yet to Starmer such people are apparently 'strangers'. He didn't think so when he lived on the Archway Rd in the 80s 👇

So having taken a long look at Farage, Musk has decided he’d prefer someone more like Yaxley-Lennon (aka Tommy Robinson ) to govern OUR country. #StickToTheUS
