Welcome back to Canada, President Obama.
Thank you for joining us in Toronto for important conversations on how we can build a better and more just future — and empower more people to build with us.
The big divide in Britain today is between working people and the privately educated, rich, greedy, tax-dodging, selfish, grifting gobshites who try to manipulate working people by pretending to give a shit about them.

Nigel Farage wants to replace our NHS
with a US-style privatised healthcare system
which treats the superrich
bankrupts the well-off
leaves the rest of us to die ...

TWO things i found on Threads that made me stop and think.
1. Confirmation that the media is biased against Labour and are working actively to bring it and SKS down
2. No surprise. Now imagine how Farage, the media darling, or any of his scummy crew would fare.

This is Lord Rothermere the owner of the Daily Mail.
He lives in a massive mansion in the English countryside, but he pays no tax here because he identifies as French.

Johnson thinks we’ve forgotten this - we haven’t: Where is the accountability? He wants it for McSweeney he needs a thorough dose of it for himself. He lives in luxury while others died in isolation and horror - mainly because he wasn’t up to the job of PM. A job that means putting the people first.

Carole Cadwalladr, "He's not that cuddle cosy golf club English pub figure"
"He is in a relationship with the US far right and with the European pro-Kremlin far right"

Any thoughts what this lovely little plant is. It's growing with my poinsettia and as this plant has not been outside since buying it at Christmas, I'd love to know what it is. #gardening#Suffolk#UK
Leo XIV (Prevost): 69 (pretty young for Pope), American, born in Chicago, naturalised citizen of Peru, pretty centrist, progressive on some issues, but not on ordaining women, murky record on abuse, very much an heir to Francis. That's my potted summary. Not as good or as bad as it could have been.

Surprised to see so many headlines from news outlets suggesting Putin has agreed to a ceasefire.
He’s done no such thing. He’s basically said he would do in theory, providing his conditions are met, on his terms. Which is just a variation on what he’s always said.
