Three years & six months ago today my claim was lodged at #Strasbourg after the politically appointed #UKSupremeCourt failed to properly address my case. I'd spent YEARS in litigation before applying to #ECtHR where I'd expected finally to get justice. So far I've had nothing.

Did anyone seriously expect to uncover the full truth from #DoJ release of #EpsteinFiles? Complete farce. Victims' identities should be redacted but nothing else. Convicted felon, known sex pest, insurrectionist & long term #Epstein associate #Trump cannot hide forever.

Union calls time on "propping up politicians who act against our interests, undermine our fundamental values and make our lives worse"

Should have stopped funding #Labour from the point #Starmer's crusade to appeal to #Reform voters became evident.

An unprecedented 2nd state visit cost £millions in public money but the #UK has no confirmed deals with #US, #Trump continues to disparage the #LondonMayor and now instigates legal action against our national broadcaster up to $10billion. #Starmer remains silent. 3/3

#Trump wants to turn killing fields of #Gaza into upscale holiday resort in pact with genocidal #Netanyahu. This is the man #Starmer earlier this year said he “likes and respects”. 2/3

#Trump wants regime change in #Venezuela, targeting & killing indiscriminately to achieve that aim. Wants to plunder #Ukraine, remove democratically elected #Zelenskyy & sides with #Putin over #NATO allies as #Europe under increased risk of attack.1/3

I don't care if this makes me appear "unpatriotic". I'm pleased about this. All #Starmer's brown nosing of the convicted felon amounts to nothing. 2nd state visit a total waste of public money. Alignment with a fascist was never the way to go.

It's no exaggeration to say this is like a form of slow torture. Will #ECtHR ever process my claim or will I die still waiting for justice? #UK is an international outlier & I'd expected so much better from #Strasbourg.

I keep seeing images of #SandiePeggie looking smug today but should be remembered that most of her spurious claim was not upheld. Dr Beth Upton, the #trans victim in all of this, had all claims against her dismissed. Not that you would know from some biased MSM reporting.

#Eurovision2026 At least four countries refusing to take part after #EBU decided not to ban #Israel. Shameful [but not surprising] the #UK are not boycotting. #Russia was rightly banned after invading #Ukraine & EBU are guilty of double standards. #EV26 looks to be a dull event.

#Starmer is an impediment to growth, a damned liability. But we need more than the customs union. We need FULL SINGLE MARKET ACCESS NOW and then to begin the long and overdue process of reversing #Brexit.

Good outcome for once from #UK's transphobic judicial system. So-called 'gender critical' complainant's case thrown out by employment tribunal. Not time to celebrate yet. Expect big money & whole #Terf circus to get behind forthcoming appeal.

Hardly surprising. Who in their right mind would stay rather than move to a better country that actually looks after its people? #Starmer says "a step in the right direction" as net migration overall down!

I look forward to being among that statistic.
