I’m tired of the status quo. My life has been a tale of two halves. I can recall the verve and optimism of my youth under Blair before it all went to shit with the 08 crash. Since then it’s been relentless bollocks.

I fear the toilet 🇬🇧 would become under Farage/Reform.

For my kids sake I joined.

I’ve had a few interesting interactions with very hostile Europeans, even on this site who would vehemently object to our rejoining.

Seems we have a lot of diplomacy and humble pie to eat in our way back to what should be our natural home.

Doesn’t mean you can’t credit the creator.

If you’re not there putting in the work on the ground why should you be allowed to pass off content as yours?

The very basic rule should be that original creator is credited automatically when reposted.

I’m that big a boomer that I didn’t know what a content farmer was.

I have since unfollowed the accounts that I am able to glean from Amanda’s post. Read the thread.

At the very least people like @noturtlesoup17.bsky.social should be credited for the work they are putting in on the ground.

You can just share my video from me instead of sharing a screen recording of my video from a content farm account that isn’t on the scene btw.

No. Nobody has enjoyed the privileged position we’d attained for ourselves within the EU. Nor will anyone ever again.

We are damaged goods. We were when we joined. We will be again should we opt to.

It would be better for all concerned if the integration was absolute. Half in half out was awkward.

I believe this is called simping.

Performative simping from Harry Enfield’s Tory Boy mk2.

Feels like a fair proposition would be closer to 10% controlled by the top 1%.

That’s still outlandish sums of money in return for their risk/work/effort but doesn’t warp the economy.

There is an argument for allowing the kind of morons that would join this club the ability to do it freely and publically.

This way it’s easier to monitor and collect intelligence on them rather than drive them underground.

The old phrase: give them enough rope to hang themselves is apt.

The KKK was founded in 1865. The united states has had 157 years to register it as a terrorist organization an has not . Instead it's a tax exempt religious organization . I'm not all that interested in white people's definition of terrorism .

Nobody. They’re small men being given free rein to indulge what was always there.

They’re bullies and individually weak.

This job is the perfect outlet for them to vent their fury at the world for their lives being shit.

With the National Guard, redirected FBI resources and soon the Army itself on the streets of America, the public there will now get a small taste of the terror they have exported globally for the last 75 years.

I’m not sure they’re the capacity for processing this kind of truth. Because ‘Murica.

BBC News explain that because of Brexit, Brits will be photographed and have their fingerprints taken when going into the EU, as the UK now is a third country

BBC News forget to explain that the UK helped create these rules when we were part of the EU because we wanted stronger border control

Why aren't We overthrowing our corrupt & treasonous government?

Are We not free people?
Are We not brave people?
Are We not Americans?

Or do you prefer the comforts of ignorance, slavery & cowardice?

Revolution is the solution.
Freedom works if you use it.

Good.

Let them suffer for their support of Putin.

Let them warm themselves by the glory of Russias “special military operation”.

Then let them march on Moscow and toss him from a 7th floor window.

No shit.

This will get zero column inches in any of the main print rags that backed Brexit.

Can’t have home truths being told. That’s not how the game is played old chap wot wot.

Almost certainly the person that took the *enormous* short position on Bitcoin 2hrs before the 100% tariffs on China announcement was a Trump.

Made a cool $200m in a heartbeat.

Nobody will investigate the insider trading.

That nearly a third of teachers have bought food for students is a shameful stain on our society.

A society in which a small number hold unfathomable wealth and vast numbers have more 💰 than they know what to do with. In *this* society our children go hungry.

These people should burn with shame.

Janey Llou @janeyllou.bsky.social · 2d

Yeah. We’re poisoning them.

Increase in teachers bringing food for hungry students, survey finds

Twenty eight per cent of teachers across England have brought in food for pupils in the last term, which is up from 26 per cent.

Wouldn’t it be nice if we could hear about all the good all the time.

Same would’ve worked for the EU. Everywhere you go across Europe you see large information boards by works/projects detailing how much the EU has funded it.

I believe if people knew what we were getting we’d have voted Remain.

In the UK we have Keir -island of strangers- Starmer, whose government is driving right wing anti immigrant and asylum seeker policies

In Spain, Pedro Sánchez is not only celebrating diversity, they're embracing and speaking positively about immigrants

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.
