#fbpe. 30 years running a small UK biz. Escaped to Europe recently. Rejoin SM, CU and EU for a healthy future for our children and grandchildren. Truth matters. If you are unnecessarily rude about #FBPE I will just block.

We need a concerted campaign to persuade the young to get out and vote in large numbers. We will never see significant change if they do not play their part in democracy. Politicians treat them like dirt because they don’t believe they will turn up to vote.

Walking on Eggshells
Walking on egg shells I get it but it doesn't need saying. Murder is wrong. Death is tragic. These are all truths for normal people, for most people. I don't need you to tiptoe around. You don't need to walk on eggshells to say how it is or to declare how it should be. Just speak it aloud Don't be naive. 'Honourable debate' which is a disguise for promoting superiority and spreading plain lies and selling ideologies which involve hatred to the kids Is never okay or courageous or cool If you are rewriting history you're just one of their tools. And whilst we are at it, using religion to hide the ugliness of souls convinced they alone represent the best side, Pretending they are superior beings, that's just deeply dark. Wearing a nice suit doesn't make the words of the dangerous any less stark. No need for jackboots to preach hate. Not even any need to wrap up in flags to spread the vilest of ideologies, that's not debate. Don't be fooled. See it. Recognise it. Smell it. Walk away from it. Don't walk on eggshells. The eggs are already broken. All we can do is stick to principles and state truth for our sanity and our children too. These power hungry narcissists may take the opportunity to create themselves a martyr. We must stick to truth and facts without wavering and without barter Stop letting them hog the jukebox Before it's too late. We need to find our courage fast! Stop giving in to destiny or fate. @redalphababe

It’s complicated, a poem about a relationship with home
Mi Tierra ¿Cuál es mi tierra, mi propia tierra? ¿La tierra del alma que vive en mi corazón? ¿O la que vive en la memoria? No sé cuál es. ¿Es la que vive en la sangre circulando por el cuerpo? ¿La que se encuentra en la ADN a nivel celular? ¿La de familia, de mis antepasados, padres, tios, abuelos? ¿ está donde vive la familia elegida, adoptiva, en el camino que sigo, durante cada nuevo capitulo de la vida? ¿Se encuentra mi tierra donde la vida es tranquila? ¿Dónde los paisajes hermosos levantan el corazón? ¿Qué evocan lágrimas en los ojos brillando con la emoción? ¿Mas bien está donde vive el amor, mi amor, el gran querido de mi vida? ¿Es la tierra de los seres queridos de mi sangre o la de familia que he creado yo misma? ¿Cuál es mi tierra, mi propia tierra? mi única tierra? ¡Pues no lo sé! •Pero sé que hay unos pocos lugares en el mundo que, para mí, aproximan! Tal vez tenemos más que solo una tierra dentro de nosotros.

Clutching at straws to hang on to their front page hatred for Angela Rayner. They think her family should take the bus perhaps …

Tories approved by British newspapers see ICE in USA zip tying children and raiding apartments with a military helicopter and think

“Yes, let’s have some of that”🤷🏼‍♀️
Sunday Express Newspaper front page saying ‘Tory ICE’ Force would deport 150,000 a year. Bold plan to tackle migrant crisis based on US agency” story is about Robert Jenrick announcing his ice style plan of deportation.

The vileness of people! Over 1300 people selected the laughing emoji on a post about a child drowning. That’s over 15% of total reactions to the post.

If these are your fellow travellers in Reform party supporters you maybe need to have a rethink about who exactly you want to be associated with!

I would say I find this vile headline shocking but actually I don’t. Farage will jump on any old bandwagon, twist anything and everything to make stuff about him, about his own victimhood if possible, will use any opportunity to target another group and point to them and say ‘it’s their fault’!!!

This vile quote tells you who Charlie Kirk was. However his murder is useful only to Trump and his far right sycophants who are absolutely indulging in making the man a martyr.

It’s the first time in ages I have seen any media site do some responsible management of the comments under an article on SM. People have literally been writing whatever racist crap they like believing it to be consequence free for ages now on all media accounts. Well done @liverpoolecho.co.uk

Un pasatiempos mío es escribir poesía pero normalmente en inglés. Este verano he decidido intentarlo en español.

So it seems that not many people have been fooled by the ‘windmills’ after all though you would think judging by UK media hyperbole in recent weeks that civil war was raging.

Tilting at windmills .

That’s what the far right idiots get their minions to do, tilt at windmills.

Extract below from Don Quixote by Miguel Cervantes.
“Just then they came in sight of thirty or forty windmills that rise from that plain. And no sooner did Don Quixote see them that he said to his squire, ‘Fortune is guiding our affairs better than we ourselves could have wished. Do you see over yonder, friend Sancho, thirty or forty hulking giants? I intend to do battle with them and slay them. With their spoils we shall begin to be rich for this is a righteous war and the removal of so foul a brood from off the face of the earth is a service God will bless.’ ‘What giants?’ asked Sancho Panza. ‘Those you see over there,’ replied his master, ‘with their long arms. Some of them have arms well nigh two leagues in length.’ ‘Take care, sir,’ cried Sancho. ‘Those over there are not giants but windmills. Those things that seem to be their arms are sails which, when they are whirled around by the wind, turn the millstone.’” Extract from Don Quixote by Miguel Cervantes

I wrote this poem

Inspired by the tens of thousands of real family stories of separation during intensive periods of Spanish emigration in the 20th century. #migration #separation

We have allowed a toxic virus of hate and stupidity to get out of control by not holding to account the billionaires who control the spaces shared by millions. Before we were only talking about certain newspapers and the damage was always limited.

Out around Foz in Lugo today. Weather beautiful. Tide extremely low. The bird near to the seagull resting on the rock is apparently a common buzzard.
Seagull and common buzzard sitting on vegetation covered rocky outcrop at the coast View from above of Rapaidora beach in northern Spain. Large beach, low tide, people in water View across a river estuary in northern Spain. Tide is very low and there is a figure of a person walking across View across a river estuary at low tide looking over the tops of some motor homes

Green Field on a sunny day with blue sky in Galicia , Spain Green Field on a sunny day with blue sky in Galicia , Spain view down a hillside, river just visible behind some trees in the distance Green Field on a sunny day with blue sky in Galicia , Spain down to the coast. Colourful houses. Sea is visible. Green Field on a sunny day with blue sky in Galicia , Spain. Looking down across some ferns to a river visible behind some trees. Hills in the distance.
