You might think honeybees are thriving – after all, we see hives everywhere. But their wild cousins are vanishing.

Literally all they had to do was calmly condemn Musk’s dishonest & inciteful attack on their parliamentary colleague, Jess Phillips. And they couldn’t even manage that. Absolutely shameful.

The gift that keeps on giving! How much longer before the penny drops that Brexit is based on falsehoods? And promoted by charlatans.
I’m old enough to remember Boris Johnson telling businesses Brexit paperwork could go in a bin. Now they need a warehouse to store it in

From the appalling comments this film is getting on X it’s clear to me if we want to avoid a dangerous chain of events which could one day see Britain joining Russia & Belarus as the only European countries outside the ECHR we need to constantly call out this insane drumbeat from the right to leave
Reform UK leader Nigel Farage says
“We need to leave the ECHR so we can deport people that come illegally & take back control of our borders & that’s what the public wants”
Share if you disagree with his populist boll**** the UK should join Russia & Belarus outside the ECHR

NEW 🚨 Britain's electoral laws are broken - but successive governments have done nothing
Musk's proposed $100million donation to Nigel Farage shows we are on the cusp of a real crisis for British democracy
But it can be fixed. Here's how, by me

Musk’s $100m to Farage will break our democracy
Keir Starmer needs to fix Britain’s broken electoral laws now - if he doesn’t, we will all suffer the consequences

Since Thatcher handed over a public utility to private owners, creating monopolies in every area, water companies have:
- racked up debts of £64bn
- paid their shareholders £78bn
- paid their managers high salaries
- demanded more taxpayers money

Hey @kemibadenochmp.bsky.social. Any thoughts on this?
Left: Kemi Badenoch #PMQs, "We had a budget in March this year and tractors were not blocking the streets of Whitehall afterwards"
Right: Sky News show footage of tractors blockading the streets of Whitehall and Parliament after the Conservative party's budget earlier this year

Some people are saying that Bluesky is an "echo chamber" where we're only talking to people who agree with us.
What they're missing is that X/Twitter was increasingly screaming into the void – talking to no one.
We #RejoinEU supporters were barely visible amid the avalanche of bots and spam.
