A free spirit, but don't poke the bear! Politics is not an abstract concept, it's life. Centre left, both extremes equally bad! Anti Brexit/reform/Tories/murderous world leaders. Pro-Labour. Love languages/travel/culture/ nature/ food, not in that order!❤️
Disgusted at suggestion refugees may be required to give up jewellery/heirlooms: very reminiscent of 1940s Germany. Why do MPs of colour always behave nastier to refugees/immigrants of colour, than anyone else. What I do support is everyone being made to obey the law: including white indigenous pop!

Very happy memories ... two years ago, I was in Kigali, running a conference. Fascinating place & impressive actions to heal past rifts. ❤️

Reform’s deputy leader Richard Tice does not understand SEND children or the system, claiming there has been an 'over-diagnosis' of kids with SEND, saying it’s 'insane' to see children wearing ear defenders in classes & accusing parents of playing the system.
Leave the SEND community alone!

If there were no boats tomorrow, all asylum seekers were sent home tomorrow, people would be not one iota better off. That’s the information that needs to be out there. Not one iota!

Gutting week for old Nige.
First Labour put forward a credible immigration policy to reduce number of small boat crossings.
Then on Friday his bestie gets sentenced for taking bribes from Russia.
All that’s left is who bought his house??

Years ago, I studied contemp hist/politics, focusing on the US, the most popular fictional president was Harrison Ford in Airforce One: v actionhero, bit farfetched for me. Always admired Jed Bartlet. Given current incumbent, Mister Blobby or any of the teletubbies would deffo be better at the job!

Growing up at a time of mysogyny, racism & the BNP; & with FarRage & reform far too visible today, I find it hard to embrace the Union flag. But, having just listened to Tim Berners Lee on Desert Island Discs I feel such pride: Intelligence, altruism & humility ... and he's British.

So hard to know what to believe, and so easy to take subjective opinions, unproven statements and right-wing propaganda as worthy information. Please read and retweet this!

Interesting to see so many great British patriots right now begging an American president to bankrupt one of Britain’s last remaining truly national institutions.

Send in the clowns ... although they already seem to be in charge of several councils!
This is how dumb Reform is.
Zig zag lines have been painted on a road outside a school that had been closed since 2016 & is for sale.
More wasted time & money for Kent County Council!

‘What a farce!’: Yellow lines repainted outside school shut for a decade
Kent County Council has reportedly repainted the ‘keep clear’ signs outside a school that has been shut for almost 10 years.

Go see ... it is an amazing film with Oscar winning performances. Even if you think you know about the subject ... for me, as much about naive populations giving way to narcissistic psychopathic political dictators - ANYWHERE - than just Nazis & Jews! A wake up call for us all!!!
