The absolute state of the BBC news just now - which seems determined to drag the government down over the budget.

Where was all this attention to minute detail and concern for absolute accuracy when the Tories were lying their way through their chaotic reign for 14 years? It's frankly absurd.

I try to avoid binary thinking, but...

There are only two types of people in the world.

"I had to suffer, so should they."

Or "I had to suffer, and I will work to help others so they don't have to."

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

It’s this “I’m alright Jack” attitude which pisses me off. We ALL live here, we ALL use public services, we should ALL pull together and contribute to make this country better.

Now THAT’S more patriotic than hanging a flag from a lamppost.

Me too 🙏
Honestly I’d pay a little more tax if it meant services improved. I’d also want them to renationalise things like Water, Gas, Electricity, Rail, Mail etc

Things that integrally should make life better and easier and are considered essential services.

What the Labour Party used to understand was that it wasn’t that immigration was tearing the country apart, but that immigration was what was holding the country together. Immigration kept our NHS going, our transport system going, our education and much more.

It’s still true. They must know it.

Why is the wifi on Avanti West Coast trains so bad... I'm sure this would help the UK productivity problems if train wifi actually worked properly (particularly given the exorbitant cost of peak time tickets...)

Hey Labour

Remember the majority of voters who believe in treating people decently and not stealing from those who've endured months and years of hardship fleeing war and persecution to seek a place of safety?

We're still over here 👋

When Tommy Robinson is celebrating your policies it is time to take a long hard look in the mirror and then quit politics forever.

I came to this country as a child refugee. No English, no certainty, no idea what my life could become. Britain gave me refuge.

Not on a timer, not with conditions attached, but with a chance to grow roots.

Shabana Mahmood is expected to say the era of permanent protection for refugees is over, in major changes to the UK's asylum and immigration system.

Note that every piece of anti-migrant propaganda I take personally. No, I’m not playing good immigrant, bad immigrant. This hate agenda is bad for ALL of us.

The problem after 14 years of damage wreaked by the Tories is that we now have a f***ed up BBC and a f***ed up NHS.

But, remember, the f***ing up has come from outside. It is not intrinsic

We desperately need a properly functioning BBC and properly functioning NHS

DEFEND THEM!

I don’t really have a posting strategy.
I don’t really have an ongoing plan.
However,
I do really hate what’s going on in the world.
I do hate the current government in the US.
I do hate injustice, racism, xenophobia, disinformation, propaganda etc.

If that sounds like you, follow me!

Hi Bluesky,

God just needs 17k followers to hit 600k. And then 66k more after that to hit 666k. That will be funny.

Thanks,
