I work for Rye Town Council and as a Caretaker at a primary school. This gives me some experience in Property Management, H&S Management and Highway Maintenance Management at a local government level and within state schools.

This is a lie.

There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.

But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

Thank goodness for our wonderful NHS. Never let anyone tell you that it isn't worth fighting for. From diagnosis to surgery, everyone has been so helpful and caring. They went the extra mile to get me fixed and I will always defend them for keeping me and my family healthy.

There was a European Praying Mantis in my garden last night. I live in East Sussex, UK and have never seen one here before. Apparently the warmer weather is drawing them here and they are not a threat to native species, which is great because they are awesome, but not great because climate change.

Please stop posting photos of dead children. It does nothing to help and it is gross behavior. There are dead and dying children in Gaza, Sudan, Ukraine, and other places. You posting their pictures solves nothing. We all know it is horrific. Please seek help or log off.

On Sunday I will be standing on the deck of Nao Victoria, a life size replica of the first ship to circumnavigate the globe. Then, in August I'll be at Newhaven Fort for a WW2 event. My time-travelling abilities are overshadowed only by those of @fakehistoryhunter.net

1 year anniversary of this version of that amazing song being released.
It's gorgeous and unlike the one by Johnny Cash, it rips my soul out in a slightly gentler manner.

#ad We've teamed up with Tommee Tippee & Peanut to support @mmhalliance.bsky.social in getting important maternal mental health resources to mothers who need support.

Sharing this post could help us reach those mothers in need and change their journey for the better.

Canadian PM Justin Trudeau:

"Today, the United States launched a trade war against Canada - their closest partner and ally, their closest friend. At the same time, they're talking about working positively with Russia, appeasing Vladimir Putin - a lying murderous dictator. Make that makes sense."

Does America have any idea what people around the world are thinking of it tonight? Where are the protests? Where is the opposition? Heartbreaking to see a nation's moral collapse like this.

Sussex has a long and proud association with the #USA - not least through Thomas Paine, whose ideas influenced the drafting of the US Constitution. There's even a Lewes in Sussex County, Delaware. So a natural home for US citizens seeking respite from current events is - www.sussexbylines.co.uk

Been back in Aus three days and already furious comparing life here to the UK. imagine - a country that still invests in infrastructure! One that is building public transport! One that has really stringent livable wage laws! These are political choices and the UK chooses misery.
