First Past the Post can no longer deliver real mandates - only chaos. 60% of Brits want it scrapped.

UK companies are destroying forests and trashing the climate through their global supply chains - and UK law lets them get away with it. We need a new #BizHumanRights law before #COP30 to make them accountable👇

Thank you Dr Giovanni et al. I follow a blog from a US Intellectual Property (IP) practitioner who also hosts a regular blog on WordPress, which he has successfully managed to link to Blue Sky. I hope that you will find the transition from Twitter to Blue Sky possible too.

Dad, following on from my reply to your post – I think that Melanie Swift's account name is:

Also, see bottom LHS of your post where you can modify who is able to interact (if you want/need to limit responses).

Melanie Swift – is this your blue sky account? If yes, do you mind if I pass the details on to my dad?
