Why do people bag dog waste only to leave it behind on fence posts or toss it on the verge? It's not a solution - the bag will just degrade and leave a mess for others to step in.

I’m sick of hearing about Reform and Farage. Every other story is about them not the Lib Dem’s or Greens. We are being force fed a diet of fascism & have no way to stop it. The media are a disgrace. They need to be revamped and only owned by those who live and pay tax here. The BBC disgusts me 😡

Farage, now socialist, is pretending to back left-wing policies - the same man who spent years whipping up hate, demonising migrants, and torching the welfare state. Don’t be fooled. This isn’t a change of heart - it’s a desperate grifter sniffing votes wherever he can. #ukpolitics

I did follow, but have now unfollowed.
@proeuropa.bsky.social followed me.

It looks like a wholesome German pro-EU account, right?

Translate the posts; immigrants are "the worst group of men".

It's also "anti-woke" ranting.

DON'T AUTOMATICALLY FOLLOW BACK.

If Starmer et al continue to bring us closer to the EU I could almost forgive them (almost) for taking away my winter fuel allowance and my WASPI wife's compensation. Almost.

Gary Lineker is a good man, a national treasure, a role model.

Being forced out of MOTD because he’s horrified by war criminals murdering kids (in a war the BBC refuses to cover without fear or favour) is enraging.

The BBC allows free speech, but only if you’re right wing.

Starmer's EU deal is a big break in the suffocating Brexit consensus that has held Britain back for the past decade.

For the first time a British government is doing things to actually undo the damage of Brexit, rather than increase it. For that alone it should be welcomed
Keir Starmer's EU Reset Deal Is the First Crack in the Brexit Wall Holding Britain Back
This agreement marks the beginning of the end of the suffocating Brexit consensus that has gripped British politics for a decade, argues Adam Bienkov

What surrender may I ask? These little Englanders were stupid enough to listen to Johnson and Farage’s lies and walk away from our largest trading partner. If that’s not surrender I do not know what is.-absolute imbeciles.

The U.K. fishing industry - weaponised & then betrayed & then abandoned, by Johnson, Farage & the rest of them - is better off under Starmer’s deal than it was under Johnson’s. That’s not an opinion. It’s counting. Anyone claiming otherwise is a liar.
