#fbpe. 30 years running a small UK biz. Escaped to Europe recently. Rejoin SM, CU and EU for a healthy future for our children and grandchildren. Truth matters. If you are unnecessarily rude about #FBPE I will just block.

Who knows it might be YOUR children or grandchildren who one day find themselves at the mercy of the generosity or otherwise of another country to give them help. Our guiding principle should be to treat others as we would want our own to be treated.

Just as predicted by the Brexiters own economist Patrick Minford!
💥💥💥 "British car, van, truck and bus production fell to its lowest level since 1952 last year. Overall, 764,715 vehicles were built in 2025. By comparison, in 2016 [before Brexit] the UK produced 1.7 million cars."

Vehicle production in the UK falls to 73-year low
The industry has "the toughest year in a generation" as vehicle making falls back to 1952 levels.

"the only way we can fight anti-semitism is by aligning ourselves with white supremacists"
Well, that went about as well as could be expected.

Yes, this was the view in the 70s. Society needs doctors, nurses, teachers, pharmacists and the members of all the other professions and trades so it is right that training for them should be funded by the state. Thatcher undid that sort of thinking

I do wish this tired old argument was questioned by politicians. It actually benefits every single member of society to have a well educated workforce. When you get treated by a doctor you are benefiting from helping to pay for that doctor to be trained for example.
2026: Labour Chancellor Rachel Reeves, "It is not right that people who don't go to university bear the cost for others to"

2020: That time Labour leader Keir Starmer said he would scrap university tuition fees

Your reminder:

£20 billion is the cost of cancelling all student loans

£10 billion is the annual cost of abolishing tuition fees

£90 billion is the lost tax revenue because of Brexit

"Justice is a universal of all cultures. It's a tightrope man walks between his desire to fulfil his wishes and his acknowledgement of social responsibility. No animal is faced with this dilemma. Animals are either social or solitary. Man is alone in being a social-solitary creature."

The phrase he uses ‘in theater’, isn’t that a phrase used about war zones usually? It’s like he is admitting the White House has actually been waging a war against Minnesotans
Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state?

HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down

Tell me again how this BBC editorialising is just my cognitive bias... This isn't a quote from anywhere. It's just the BBC's description of this disgraced, divisive politician.

Poor Melanie. She is SO close to getting it.

No, it's no coincidence. Because violence flows directly from ICE and Democrat-run cities are where ICE has been sent to cause it. It's like observing that surfing is not popular in landlocked states or that intellectual rigour is rare at the Telegraph.
We hear all the time about the damaging effect of social media. Less abt the radicalising & dehumanising effect of corporate right-wing media. An example: the increasingly deranged, dogmatic Melanie Phillips. How long can @thetimes.com continue to publish such rancid right-wing crap?

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Anyone who saw “The Producers” knows that you can wring cash out of intentional flop. Jeff Bezos pumped money into Melania not to sell tickets but to bribe and flatter Trump.

It appears that the Rwanda claim against UK is not based on a badly drafted termination clause, but...

...because the current government did not formally terminate the contract in time, hence the payments still due and owing.

If true, whoopsie.

The UK version of “Project 2025” by the Reform party includes a British ICE, a concentration camp for 24,000 people, mass surveillance and withdrawing from refugee, anti-torture and anti-trafficking conventions.

It’s on their website. That’s how comfortable fascists are in the UK today.

I'm just watching @deborahmeaden.bsky.social on BBC Morning Live and I've just been reminded of how much I've missed you Deborah since I left Twitter.

It would be great to, see you here more often Deborah. We're slowly but surely getting our Pro-European orchestra back together here on BlueSky. 😊
