My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Reform UK complain about migrants not integrating - but hate mixed marriages even more ... "Imagine being so offended by a family appearing in an IKEA advert that you take to social media to complain about seeing people who aren't white on British television." www.facebook.com/TruthAgainst...

As a former prime minister, Liz Truss is a significant political figure. But after branding the Financial Times part of the 'deep state' and describing the left as 'Islamo-communist', she has clearly degenerated into a full-on gibbering rightwing whackjob.

FIVE Cobra meetings Johnson skipped at a critical time at the start of the Covid epidemic. His delay in instituting the first lockdown caused tens of thousands of unnecessary deaths. He should be in prison. Not being paid truckloads of cash as a columnist by our ridiculous right-wing media.

Marcus Chown@marcuschown.bsky.social

Yes. Hard to imagine a worse PM to have than Johnson during a pandemic. Didn’t he miss the first four Cobra meetings?

After Exercise Cygnus, Jeremy Hunt ignored the recommendation to replenish PPE supplies. He was the reason we had inadequate PPE at the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. As the worst ever health secretary, he had left the NHS on its knees. Notice non-stick Hunt is doing the TV rounds, blaming others.

This. Jeremy Hunt for destroying NHS preparedness.

This is a non story. The police chief cites actual figures. Farage challenges actual figures. Farage has no basis for doing this. Why did the BBC run this?

Sadiq Khan fought to block Palantir from bidding for a Met police AI contract. If only there was resolve within the Labour govt to keep this appalling company out of NHS & other contracts. We can have no faith in a company so embedded in US & Israeli military. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Just visited the control tower @ Greenham Common. Chatted with a volunteer in the tower & he reminded me 3 protesters stormed the tower in 83, locking the door behind them. Taken to court but all charges dropped. Obviously they'd be terrorists now wouldn't they @yvettecooper-mp.bsky.social ?

Neither migrants nor black & brown people - closed youth centres, sacked youth leaders, sold off community sports centers knowing crime would increase - decided to use poverty-creating austerity to enrich millionaires Super-rich Blair's Labour & the Tory LibDem Coalition did

This Clacton resident summed it up perfectly: being part of the EU helped keep us safe. It's time to restore our EU membership.

Are you a young blonde woman with a few days to spare in Washington, D.C.? Why not consider becoming White House press secretary? No qualifications or experience are necessary; the only requirements are low intelligence, delusional self-confidence, and creepy devotion to a narcissistic sociopath.

We need a British version of this (mainly because the people who need to see won't empathise unless it has a Union Jack)

Public executions - used by dictators to instil fear and subservience to the regime. “ON 10 NOVEMBER 1944, thirteen German young people, including members of the Edelweiss Pirates from Ehrenfeld, as well as other fighters against war and Nazi terror, were publicly hanged by the Gestapo and SS.”

We already know where all this leads. The history books give us an example. Germany 1933-1945

Remember the Tories don’t care about people, they never did and this will never change. All the issue we face started with them forcing Neoliberalism on us. 😡

If anyone still wonders about how Jimmy Savile got away with it, just read all the tributes to Archer that refer more prominently to his charity work than his crimes. There’s a big part of it.

He wasn’t colourful, he was a fantasist lying criminal piece of shit. Hope that helps.
