Proud rejector of all that Trump & Musk stand for. Songwriter, guitars & vocals with THE CLIMATE STRIPES too ... welcome all!
I'm sure he was a nice enough bloke, but this endless coverage of the Pope's passing is ridiculous. For one, there is no such thing as God. For another the Catholic church has caused IMMEASURABLE damage to countless youngsters over the years. I'd have stayed a LOT quieter if I were a member.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

Our band The Climate Stripes has a new album forthcoming, entitled “Times Are Strange (And Getting Stranger)”. We’d like to thank Donald Bastard Trump for providing much of the grist for our poetry.

Why is Colonel Chris Hadfield (the famous Canadian astronaut) refusing to say anything against Donald Trump? Is it not the DUTY of every celebrity and public figure to speak up?

QUESTION: Should celebrities and public figures voice their opposition to Trump, or are they allowed to stay silent whilst we carry their can? (They all know who they are)

This man is going to kill every last living thing on the planet. What will it take before people see him for the truly existential threat he is?

Delighted to see Bluesky up its max character limit. But it's still NOWHERE NEAR enough. We need Bluesky to take Facebook on with a much higher limit in place. Our democracies depend on Facebook dying a long-overdue death. I want to leave Facebook without losing my voice online.

I am SO proud of Americans taking to the streets to defend their democracy. This needs to become a series of national strikes until the Trump economy is stopped. We'll do our bit abroad too, inc. calling for a boycott of all tourism to the USA. Difficult, but WAY better than a second US civil war.

@carolekingofficial.bsky.social A serious question to a lady of considerable influence; isn't it time for every sane American to withdraw their labour? Short of the military stepping in to remove him, what other choice is there?

Bluesky needs to up its game if it is to replace Facebook (and I hope it does). Why the the character limit?

Are you a dictator with nukes? What has Ukraine giving theirs up taught you?

Bored? Hate Sundays? Why not pootle down to Whittles in Oldham this fine afternoon, and see the supersexy CLIMATE STRIPES?

From the Russian TASS news agency today ... laughable:

"Zakharova reported that the visit of the leader of the neo-Nazi regime, Volodymyr Zelensky, to Washington on February 28 was a complete political and diplomatic defeat for the Kyiv regime ..."

The non-American armies of NATO are still some 2.3 million strong. We have to deal with Putin without Trump involved at all. If we do not, Putin will not stop. Poland, Latvia, Lithuanian and Estonia will be next. Then the rest of us.

Germany (re)infected with right-wing idiocy too. After WW2 you couldn’t find a single person who’d been a Nazi. ‘Course, Germans didn’t have social media in 1933-45. But we do now. So let’s ALL keep tabs on the racists we see shall we? You know, for any reruns of the Nuremberg Trials?

Wanna get all hot and sticky? Wanna boogie with the almighty CLIMATE STRIPES? Then mosey on down to Whittles in Oldham this coming Sunday 2nd March, 4.00 pm. An afternoon with Manchester's best blues rock band.

It’s not often I’d feel sorry for Sir Kier Starmer. But him hoping to talk some sense into Donald Trump this coming week must feel like the weight of the world on his shoulders, and it may indeed be. WW3 is not that difficult to imagine, considering Trump’s utterly deranged thinking.

For all those who argue the US tax payers have been 'giving' billions of dollars to Ukraine, the reality is that much of that money is actually spent in AMERICA, from Raytheon's Patriot missiles to Chrysler's Abrams tanks. See the US State Dept's website here:

U.S. Security Cooperation with Ukraine - United States Department of State
The United States, our allies, and our partners worldwide are united in support of Ukraine in response to Russia’s premeditated, unprovoked, and unjustified war against Ukraine.  We have not forgotten...
