Fully onboard with Bluesky, instead of toxic Twitter/X
Man City FC and Leigh Leopards RL fan. Open Source software is only way.
Cameron leaned towards UKIP. It was easier just gamble the countrys future on a binary vote,rather than win the moral ground. After the binary vote racist hate went up. Tories leaned towards Reform. Hate went up. Labour dancing to Reforms tune as well. In 2029 Reform still win. Hate off the scales

They may keep constituency I live in because of this kind of thing. It was won back last GE, after falling to "Boris's get Brexit done". Apart from that blip,its been Labour forever. I feel ashamed that Labour voters go to Reform. But the tidal wave of messaging everywhere is driving this hate.
November 17, 2025 at 6:02 PM
I asked a work colleague (who is Reform voter) if he will now vote Labour. You can guess the answer. Its pointless pandering to them.
I'd much rather Labour be Labour, and win the moral argument. If they lose in 2029 anyway, then at least they still have the dignity of its foundations intact.

The factory in Asia are doing a roaring trade in these flags. Having to take on more staff.

2029 is long way away. But council elections are around the corner. Winning the moral argument is more important than survival in power. Tho,Reform getting in power will be lot worse. It will be Thatcher on steroids. Racist attacks will spiral. I vote mp/councillor with best chance to beat Reform

Tories lost this battle twice. Brexit, then immigrants. Does make you wonder if politicians wasn't so motivated for self interest and survival, instead of doing the right thing.
Labour fallen in same trap. The only way to get out of this hole is a reset,with new leader and positive adult thinking.

They gain little from Reform voters,because they hate Starmer (he doesnt know what a woman is apparently,etc). They lose on left for obvious reason. & they hate Starmer too.
Starmer didnt win Labour last election (nor did McSweeney). Once they realise this,they can move forward and be proper Labour
November 16, 2025 at 5:44 PM
Now thats proper Manchester. Pity that if you was to zoom out from that, you would see those skyscrapers dotted everywhere now.
November 16, 2025 at 5:11 PM
Very well put together as aways.
But I wish people on the left wouldn't keep saying Reform shouldn't be on bbc more than LibDems because they have only 5 MPs. Reform in last GE finished 3rd in the number of votes. Complaining about how these grifters are not held to account when on bbc is fair tho.
November 16, 2025 at 4:19 PM
That will just push them more. Its not simplistic solution to all of this. X is cesspit of lies and hate. Too many people still endorse X with their presence on there, though.

Traitors. The lot of them
November 15, 2025 at 6:18 PM
I should be surprised. Maybe I shouldn't be. Don't most vocal self proclaiming "patriots" live abroad anyway? 😉
Stupid is as stupid does.

Need to take seats from Reform. Then say "Tide is turning". You get no influence or power to change things for the better, with Reform in charge.
The one benefit to this, is if Starmer & co have smelt the coffee yet. And seek cross party co-operation to get PR in before next GE to stop Reform.

To me, its more annoying that Beeb made such an obvious blunder. The Guardian did a video of Beeb version of speech, against original but with fast forward action in between. Worked perfectly, and wouldn't give ammunition to hit Beeb over head with, and still gets the point across. Its naive.
November 15, 2025 at 9:44 AM
They finished 3rd with number of votes in last GE. And are sweeping up councils.
It's not silencing them we need. It's common sense scrutiny of them on TV. It's not even difficult to show them up for what they are.

The only way we can ensure its fair for all, is take away the interpretation by refs. Make it black and white, any offside player interfering or not in the box is offside.

Linesman didn't make a mistake in spotting the offside. It was up to onfield ref to decide if player interfered in play.

Great film. 😊

No thanks. His ego wouldn't fit in. Never forget the disrespect to Rodri.
November 12, 2025 at 6:40 PM
Some people need to take a deep breath, watch episode of Mortimer and Whitehouse Gone Fishing on iPlayer. That takes away the angriness and nastiness. Then think calmly.
Beeb made mistake. They need to learn from it. Whats happening now,fuelled by Trump & Farridge is way over top.
November 12, 2025 at 7:10 AM
Still not great tho, surely? To me it looks like they have reached a peak, and currently staying at that peak.

Why havent Ukraine been obliterated yet? For first time since WW2, part of Russia was occupied for months. Humiliating. Everyday drones and missiles are hitting Russia. It's not going to end for years. Ukraine have no nuclear deterrent.
I'm not saying we give up ours. Buts its not black & white
November 9, 2025 at 2:39 PM
Antidote that makes them irrelevant does.
No one wins nuclear war. And the deterrent that served us so well up to now was ok when it was Soviet Union or Russia. All kinds of rogue states have and will have them now. Normal reasoning are out of the window.
