Hey folks. In total honesty my tour is NOT selling well. I’ve sold 30 tickets in a 400 seater in Birmingham, and not much more elsewhere. If you like musical comedy, if you like standup, then please come see my show! And spread the word! The Rachel Parris Songbook tour starts in Nov! Link in bio! 🎶

After #MTPC, I started wondering if there would be enough @mikrotik.social users on this side of the Atlantic to warrant something similar. I’m not convinced yet but, should it that ever change, #RouterOS User Symposium (ROUS) has a nice ring to it… if we can convince people that it exists. #IYKYK

Finally someone reporting on the Kremlin connections of the weird outfit called the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies - I followed Yafimava on twitter with horror as it was a constant stream of Kremlin talking points.

This week, Brexit finally killed our family business. We cleared out our warehouse, handed back the keys, paid the final bills and said goodbye to our last employee. What was once a thriving firm died a slow, sad death, all thanks to Farage, Johnson and the gullible idiots they conned. 1/18

Starmer announces that the UK is pursuing closer EU relations: “Brexit did deep damage to our economy. And the opportunities to strengthen our security and cut the cost of living are simply too big to ignore. We want to be more ambitious. Closer economic cooperation. Closer security cooperation.”

The Government needs to realise more regulation won’t fix our broken water system. We need to kick financial predators out & take it back into public control. But don’t just take it from me. Listen to a sewage campaigner who inspired Channel 4’s ‘Dirty Business’. @windrushwasp.bsky.social

British media pumps out daily propaganda pieces for Farage, fails to offer *any scrutiny* and basically legitimises rampant racism, then puts on its ‘innocent face’ and clutches its pearls at the rise of the far right… What a grim betrayal of our democracy. www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/how...

Paris took back control of its water from private profiteers in 2010. 💧 Now they have affordable bills, free water fountains, high customer satisfaction and safe swimming in the Seine. ✅ Public ownership is the only way this happens. Let's make it happen here! Join us to make it a reality 👇
