Happily retired aircraft engineer. Love my kids and Grandkids and hoping for a healthy retirement, health is crucially important.
Labour man, Keir supporter, Celtic man, humanist, Trump & Farage are abominations. Not interested in Bit coin shite. No DM’s.

“Speaking outside his chateau in France, former Brexit Party and UKIP MEP Coburn answered "no" when a BBC journalist asked him whether he’d ever been paid to give a speech to promote pro-Russian campaigners”

Just FFS investigate the whole dodgy traitorous lot of them.

Two Labour governments (Welsh and British) working together means delivery.

From backing Small Modular Nuclear to investing in semiconductors, they are building the stronger, fairer Wales you deserve.

Wishing the injured National Guard a full recovery. No one signs up to be used as political pawns.

Nov 20 - a judge ruled Trump’s deployment was illegal. The court blocked him from sending troops into the District, with a 21 day pause for appeal.

Bottom line: the Guard shouldn’t have been in DC.

Somehow this got missed off the "Benefit Street" front pages today
70% of the additional spending from removing the two-child limit will go to families who are in work. This is targeting support for low-income working households who are being priced out of a decent standard of living despite doing everything asked of them.

The DC Guard deployment was found to be unlawful days ago, and now 500 more troops are being sent in. These are the illegal orders Democrats in Congress warned about. Soldiers should not be risking their lives for a madman who uses them as political pawns.

A wave of explosions and drone alerts is sweeping across Russian-occupied Crimea and southern Russia tonight. Multiple blasts were reported near Saky and Novofedorivka. Meanwhile, Russian air defenses are active in Taganrog, Novorossiysk, and Rostov-on-Don.

It sure would be good if Heath woke up one morning, went to his computer, opened a new document, and did not go on to wet and soil himself.

AWESOME

A Russian drone flew over Moldova and crash landing.

After calling the Russian ambassador to meet with Moldovan authorities They placed the 6 ft drone at the entrance to the Ambassador’s entrance so the Russians had to walk around the drone as the Russians left.

Way to go Moldova!!

Alarms are going off in Reform UK HQ.

First their leader is embroiled in a racism row.

Secondly their member growth has stalled.

Thirdly they’ve polled lowest since April.

Now migration has fallen to its lowest levels since the pandemic.
