Crikey. Poll suggest 1 in every 3 people in the Uk over 50 now support Reform. Good God if you want to register a protest vote at least choose a party or an independent candidate that is competent and doesn't have racist/populist/fascist/pro-Russian undertones 🤦♀️.

I used to love @hugorifkind.bsky.social on #TimesRadio 10am Saturdays. Don't get to listen much to him in the week. His replacement was alright but not brilliant. Just heard that the despicable Rod Liddle is going to take over. How sad. Click bait Radio. Time to switch off.

Just deleted my Threads account. It was annoying American rubbish which was only trying to provoke me. Anger obviously makes more money. I do hope Bluesky doesn't go in the same direction. It feels better here.
