Which reminds me, it's that time of year again for National Trust members to vote. The easiest way is to use the 'quick vote' to keep out the traditionalist 'Restore Trust' candidates. secure.cesvotes.com/V3-3-0/nt25/...

@zoejardiniere.bsky.social I would be interested to hear your opinion on this. Will you be back on TV tomorrow?
Starmer says ‘one in, one out’ deal will allow UK to return small-boat migrants to France
Starmer says ‘one in, one out’ deal will allow UK to return small-boat migrants to France
PM says those crossing Channel illegally will be detained and sent back to France ‘in short order’
People arriving via small boats will be detained and returned to France “in short order” with a new safe and legal route established for refugees for the first time, Keir Starmer has announced.
The “one in, one out” deal – a pilot agreed with the French president, Emmanuel Macron – will for the first time give the UK the ability to return asylum seekers who cross the Channel to France who would not then be allowed to apply via the legal route. Continue reading...

BBC breakfast once again highlighting the delay in payments for the Post Office scandal. Maybe they should take another look at the delay in payments for the #taintedblood scandal which has been going on for much much longer? Tainted blood was actually responsible for killing people. #BBCBreakfast

Zoe is always the voice of clarity and reason.
The ultimate irony of halving net immigration numbers:
You can do it without reducing small boats crossings at all!!
This is Nigel Farage’s immigration doom-loop & Starmer is up to his neck in the death trap like the Tories before him 🤦♀️

I think this nails it.
Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.
No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

Really frustrating that the infected blood payments still haven’t been made. Perhaps we should be getting the Americans to pay the billion pound compensation as it was their infected blood and plasma that infected our families. #infectedbloodinquiry

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

This is the right move. For so many reasons:
A tiny tax on people who will barely notice - £24bn a year to help fund Ukraine and keep up foreign aid - and so much more that’s crying out to be done right here in Britain.
All without putting any more on the shoulders of working people

@celiarichardson.bsky.social Please can the Trust review its offering for Coeliacs? Just been to The Devils punch bowl and at 12.00 the only lunch was one gluten free sandwich which we shared! Staff were friendly and helpful as usual but this isn’t the first property where theres no hot food option.
