There’s a crack in everything … it’s how the light gets in. Hopeful, political, European (in spirit). Engaged citizen. Not sure I get emojis quite right sometimes 🤔

Happy to be here, looking forward to some evidence-based info and some laugh-out-loud moments 😊

Today we handed in over fifty-five thousand signatures at Downing Street, calling on the government to keep Britain in the European Convention on Human Rights. Leaving it would put us alongside Russia and Belarus. Britain must stand for justice, not isolation.

The brass neck of Katie McFarland (Trump apologist) on @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social ..do they really expect us to believe that #JimmyKimmel being cancelled is nothing to do with the #Trump administration’s hypocrisy on #FreeSpeech ….and they criticise us? What a cheek!

More than one year after the Conservatives suffered the worst defeat in their history Tories have still not come to terms with it. Jacob Rees-Mogg is still peddling the official Tory bullshit which voters didn't believe in July 2024 & have no interest in now. #Newsnight

Farage seem to blame immigrant for all
economic woes. The
truth is Brexit he championed is costing £50 billion a year. We lost our ability to send most cross channel migrants back to the EU because of his beloved Brexit. Farage and other Brexit backers have cost us far more than asylum seekers

@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social Zia Yusuf is a one trick pony, even relating the #BayeuxTapestry issue to immigration. What a sad obsessed man 🐴

A reminder: Asylum seekers are in hotels because of a huge application backlog that the gov't must work through. Robert Jenrick - now, bursting with creative solutions - processed applications slowly ***on purpose*** as a deterrent.

Here he is, as Immigration Minister two years ago, saying so. ~AA

Today is World Overshoot Day. A majority of Brits are worried about climate change. But do you know who’s running away from the problem? Reform UK. They are ignoring science and delaying action.

As Keir Starmer cosies up to the EU, British citizens are being treated like dirt by foreigners.
Whilst on holidays poor Susan Edwards was discriminated against & humiliated due to CULINARY BULLYING.
This would never have happened in Boris’s day.
