Private equity and the crushing cost of UK vets’ bills.

60% of local vets taken over by corporates.

Usual story -price hikes, debt, profiteering.

Drugs prices up to eight times the online prices. Profit margins of up to 43%.

How many pets will suffer?

Gaza has been for a long time no more than a giant Ghetto enforced by those who should know better, it is now being turned into a giant Auschwitz ignoring all lessons from the past a fascist state exists and is endorsed by the US government. Unacceptable and Inhuman does not even brush the surface

So aligning with EU food rules and a fishing deal surely mean that the UK cheese producers and farmers and fisherman can start selling their products to the EU again returning access to our biggest market is a betrayal? Sounds sensible to me #brexit

Come to the EU better yet 🇨🇦 why not join we Europeans have so much more in common with you than those MAGA folk together we are stronger after all its only a tiny hop to 🇩🇰Greenland🇪🇺 from good old 🇨🇦
The Golden State and Canada have always shared so much in common.

Sure, you-know-who is trying to stir things up back in DC, but don't let that ruin your vacation plans.

We’re launching a new international campaign to welcome and encourage Canadians to visit the Golden State.

Isolate America - The Statesman
Global markets are reeling from the escalating trade war sparked by President Donald Trump’s irresponsible rhetoric and unpredictable behaviour, harming even America’s staunchest allies.

To me there is one glaring flaw in Trumps tariffs. Surely all those countries who trade with the US and charge 10% tariffs and are now being hit with 10% tariffs should now raise those tariffs to 20%,after all all the countries charging 20% are going to be hit with the same 10%

Elon spent $290 million to buy the Presidency…

… then fired the head of the ethics watchdog agency who investigates conflicts of interest

… then fired federal workers

… now is giving himself government contracts for federal agencies

That’s not efficiency.
It’s corruption.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

@u24.gov.ua strange that they have no problem with the last Great War hero leader before Zelensky visiting the WH wearing his Siren suit personally I find the Ukrainian version far more somber and fitting

At this point, Zelenskyy should not participate in any peace talks which involve the Trump administration

He should demand that Europe lead the way-and guarantee Ukraine’s safety if a deal can be reached

Clearly, the US is spouting Putin’s talking points and cannot be trusted to negotiate honestly
Congrats, America. We're now on Putin's side.

Agree with most of this although leaving account active only boosts the musklomaniacs numbers so believe total deactivation better

Why #sophiefromromania is leaving Twitter
In November 2022 I wrote a long piece here about my relationship with Twitter and why, despite “the chaotic reign of Mad King Elon” I would not be leaving.

I do not understand how anyone can remain active on X when it has clearly become such an unhinged place.
Says a lot that about 90% of the traffic I’m seeing on X right now is absolutely convinced the British govt is about to embark on a mass programme of state murder of the elderly and vulnerable. What was until recently the town square of politics has become the preserve of the bad, mad and deranged.

How anyone can in good conscience can stay on the other site I don't know? it's clear that not only is it pushing the agenda of a deranged billionaire but it also furthers the interest of foreign governments and their interference with western politics, time has come ALL must leave the other place
If you needed even MORE of a reason to switch to Bluesky, China is "troubled" by the fact that they've invested so much time on Twitter buying ads, bots, and influencers... only to see the people they're seeking to manipulate (us) flee the site.

Even if you're not moved by the argument that Twitter is a rightwing cesspool thanks to its redpilled owner, the fact that foreign enemies are expressing concern that they won't be able to use Twitter to manipulate Americans anymore should be enough to warrant the exodus.
