Like many I’ve left X/Twitter after 13 years. Not a fan of Musk with his extreme & divisive views, it’s become a toxic media platform peddling misinformation including far-right conspiracy theories. Also on Threads @garymwebb

As we welcome the news that the UK will support Ukraine with a £2.26bn loan…

Here’s your reminder that the Conservatives wasted £9.9bn on unusable or defective PPE

Never forget their staggering corruption and incompetence.

Dear BlueSkyers. Sadly I'm getting many reports of scammers pretending to be me here, incl messaging people with 'investments' . Pls share/help me spread word that, as you know, THIS IS MY ONLY BLUE SKY account (proved as my handle is an official MoneySavingExpert one). All others are scams

Spending time online can leave you with a warped view of the world and that's a shame. Good people have always outnumbered bad people and things generally get better. Hold onto that x

Yes. Headline should read;
“Bandwagon bid by Tories to wreck the child safety bill fails as the government votes to protect vulnerable young people.”

Come on BBC. Do better. Much much better.

Good summary of everything ⬇️
We've crossed a very, very dangerous threshold. The combined forces of ignorance, disinformation, hate, and extreme wealth have seized power and are twisting the global agenda.

Decent people need to step up and counter it all, or things are simply going to descend into the pit of hell.

Spurs end Liverpool's 24 game unbeaten run and become just the second side to beat the Reds all season.

New keeper Antonín Kinský kept a clean sheet on debut and Lucas Bergvall scored his first goal for the club.

The second leg of this tie takes place at Anfield in early Feb.

Entering our first Tory free year since 2010. I’ll drink to that.

I’m so proud of everyone that voted those bastards out and everyone that used their voice to resist.

I’m so proud of our campaign team.

I’m proud of everyone that survived.

There is hope.

Change doesn’t happen overnight.

A quick peruse of the hellscape formally known as Twitter tells me that in the UK the two right wing political parties are attacking each other and in the US different factions of Trump acolytes are attacking each other. Personally, I'm attacking a cheeseboard. Merry Christmas!

Today, I called on the PM to finally give the green light for a new hospital in West Herts 🏥

The last Conservative government promised it but failed to deliver it - despite my asking close to twenty times.

We’re shovel ready: we just need the new government to give us the go ahead.

“So it’s not about you, it’s not about your farm and the fact you bought a farm to avoid inheritance tax?”

@vicderbyshire.bsky.social speaks to Jeremy Clarkson at the farmers’ protest in Westminster where thousands of farmers are protesting the government’s inheritance tax plans.

Clarkson and Farage in expensive tweed that’s likely never even seen a bush, protest for the privileged. Obviously.

Nobody cares about taxing private schools or inheritance.

Cry into a £50 note as I sit and feel good about how my Labour vote now means that NHS workers will be paid properly.

Truly eye opening!
The plight of women in Florida is dystopian, including the rise of fake abortion clinics offering the untested practice of "abortion reversal." After the failure of the abortion rights referendum in the state, the situation will get worse. Our News Agents film. www.youtube.com/watch?v=df5B...

God knows who awarded this idiotic Tory fanzine ‘News website of the year’ because this kind of nonsense is nothing close to news. Just more howling classist outrage from a bunch of entitled, clueless halfwits.

When I was in my twenties, I had a cleaning job to pay for band rehearsals. If we got a gig, I would make my own posters and push the equipment to the venue in a shopping trolly. Hope is amazing.

One of the reasons I like @bsky.app is that it's a bit more clear and transparent, much like these glasswing butterflies I snapped years ago at RHS Wisley 😊

People here seem to be more kind, friendly, and best of all, polite. Good manners, such a treasure 👏

Thank you for being wonderful company 😊🙏

CATS ON THE LONDON UNDERGROUND
🚇 PHOTO /1

There seems to be an increasing number of feline travellers on the London Underground network. I've now encountered enough cats to make a thread!

I met Tony the Cat, with Cat Trainer Mohammed at Walthamstow Central Station. They regularly travel the tube!

Lilly came to me because Jet2 arranged for armed police to escort her off the plane for refusing to pay for her soggy tuna bap. Jet2 says she was rude and smuggled booze on board. Today we heard from the woman sitting behind Lilly on the plane. Listen…..
