Like this post if you haven’t forgotten that the Tories left the country in the most appalling mess less than 6 months ago.
Repost if you feel that the damage they did to public services, including the NHS, over 14 dreadful years is going to take many years to fix.

53 days of Trump. It’s hard to quantify the damage already done. But it’s historic. The world is far more dangerous. America’s reputation is trashed. Trust with allies is broken. Citizens betrayed. Trade wars. Aid withdrawn.
How can Republicans bear it? The shame should ruin them. Guilty forever.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

On the day a murderer is sentenced for the killing of 3 innocent children. Please pause and spare a thought for those children, their families, and friends, and give them some time at least before using their loss as a political opportunity.

🧵: I got real with Facebook friends/family last night.
I'd been doing politics "lite" there because I didn't want to alienate people I love who think differently than me.
I've decided if you love someone, you need to tell them the truth. It's up to them how they handle it. It started with this:
