It feels like my early days on Twitter. The positive connecting with people, hope for adult discussion, sharing ideas, sharing information and maybe together helping to make things better as we all build our networks. Hope is back with us all I think.

This morning on BBC Breakfast, Nigel Farage said he had received “zero help from the state” with his security. Yet reports say he had previously received publicly funded protection and was offered a taxpayer-funded package including a bodyguard, a secure car and a trained driver.

But if Musk can take down key internet for one country....how much power does that give him over other countries? He is a clear and present danger.

💚🙏👇 Microsoft wants to build three massive AI data centres in Leeds. It’ll drain thousands of litres of water from the River Aire and become the city's biggest carbon emitter. We can still stop the council's final sign-off, but we need more voices. Add your name: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pr...

Another wasted opportunity. Blair/Brown had 14 years to reverse the worst effects of Thatcherism. Instead they embedded it into every public body. And here we are again, another landslide government and no clue how to use it.

Just "sticking plaster" politics from the Chancellor. Meaningless and unconvincing. Time for an actual Labour Gvt to be radical and transform peoples lives for good....if the Gvt has not been fully bought by vested interests of course.

USA helped but it took until 1942 before the USA got out of Nazi Germany & in the process gave passage to a load of SS Nazis — gave them top jobs in what became NASA & the CIA. 2026 it has another problem supporting a new form of Nazism. The US dropped 2 Nuclear Bombs knowing surrender was coming

Freedom of Movement also more easily allowed: Tourism Learning Retirement options Shared research & Development And more That generated income & futures in the UK and within mainland Europe across 31 countries

Freedom of Movement didn't just allow Europeans to come to Britain. It allowed British entrepreneurs to start businesses across Europe too. British workers could follow opportunities. British firms could recruit expertise. Why discuss only arrivals when it worked both ways?

Neal Lawson: "I couldn't live on the meagre benefits people are getting. To suggest that we have to cut those.. actually that's where the engine of growth is, that's the people who spend.. how do you get people out spending.. not by cutting benefits of people at the bottom"

Like getting Fujitsu to review postmaster deaths ... 'Sir David Bell, the "independent" antisemitism reviewer, was accused of Islamophobia in 2005. A pro-Israel charity has listed him on its council for ten years.' newscord.org/editorials/d...

I call it the National Apartheid Zionists of Israel. You might shorten it to NAZI.

When you've been sold the same crock of shit for as long as you can remember, why would you even consider buying it one more time, especially when it's being resold by the biggest bullshit artist of all time.

Just to be clear... Prop 40 is a ONE-TIME retroactive tax. It applies ONLY to billionaires and would tax just 5% of their wealth — which grew 30% in 2025. California's billionaires would still be worth $2T+ AFTER the tax. The revenue will fund healthcare for millions of Californians. Vote YES.

It is time Europe divested themselves of US tech giants. The French Gvt has ditched Microsoft, Norway following. Finland working with Ukraine to create an alternative to Musk's Internet control.. It is a start
