I'll be adding more with extra accounts soon.
If you are new here, it's a quick way to find good people to follow!

Short thread:
If anyone is interested, I've just updated my old "Starting out on Twitter" Guide to "Starting out on Social Media".
It explains how to start, navigate and grow a social media account on any platform e.g. here.
DM me if interested. Please see about Starter Packs below.

Reposts appreciated please. We need to get the message out about the reality of Reform...
Excellent piece on the Bylines network by @garygilligan.bsky.social - there is a real chance that Reform might win the next general election, and it is critical that people know what it is they are voting for. Judging by their councils so far, that seems to be broken promises and rising bills.

Pollie Parsons, 1886: typesetter, caricaturist, editor and delivery woman for Toby. When her husband was jailed for its words, she kept the presses rolling. A forgotten pioneer of grassroots media.
