It's up to the people of Kent to hold their councillors to account. 3 questions to ask at each and every public meeting: what progress have you made locally on:
- stopping immigration?
- reducing local energy bills?
- cutting our council tax?

Maggie surely? Or maybe I'm influenced by the actor being surprisingly Trumpy while Maurice isn't.

The text only sets the terms of reference with the details tbc afterwards, and would keep Trump the extortionist engaged for now. The eventual $ value to him could well depend on how secure Ukraine feels..

How haggard does Trump look side on? At least he has a reflection I suppose. Not sure about JD Vance.

Won't make any difference, but we can at least tell them we've noticed.

Big challenge, leading such an institution just as it gears up for the 50th anniversary of Washington Pride...

Garmin watches crashing when connecting to GPS today. Has Trump found out people are using his satellite signals for free?

My introduction to the brilliance of Harlan Ellison quickly escalated to this excellent Twilight Zone piece from Bruce Willis and Wes Craven. A well-spent Sunday. youtube.com/watch?v=aPrh...

Immigration is what people care about, because it's what's highlighted by the media, because it's what people care about.

How do people WFH with a slow cooker stew on? Whole house smells so distractingly good.

Good move! 👏 May get some resistance from those who believe taking abuse is part of your job, but most Echo readers are good folk.

Any plans to include a Bluesky button on the socials? Is that even a thing yet?

So pleased I saw the excellent Paul Foot's 'Dissolve' show in Liverpool tonight before the tour ends.

Thanks to @iandunt.bsky.social and @dorianlynskey.bsky.social for this wonderfully lucid and concise exposition on fascism. Really helped put my thoughts in order on Trump and Co.
