The intransigence of Rachel Reeves is a huge disappointment and will cost this government dearly.

I note with interest right-wing media's total absence of any concerns about prominent BBC presenter Armstrong expressing his highly political opinions. As was always perfectly clear to many of us, the problem was not that Lineker had views, but the fact they didn't approve of his views.

Standing there proudly in a Union Jack suit, while your leader vigorously defends a foreign politician who has just dismissed Britain as a "random country" that hasn't fought a war in forty years, is quite something

As we welcome the news that the UK will support Ukraine with a £2.26bn loan…
Here’s your reminder that the Conservatives wasted £9.9bn on unusable or defective PPE
Never forget their staggering corruption and incompetence.

That’s how you stand up to bullies. 👏👏🤷♀️
One of Norway's largest fuel companies just announced that they will no longer refuel US Navy vessels after Trump’s treatment of Zelenskyy.
“It made us sick... We encourage all Norwegians and Europeans to follow our example.”

Although our motivation for doing cases about sexual misconduct isn't political - our first case was about the Observer - I am very proud that @goodlawproject.bsky.social is now in scraps with both GB News and the Daily Mail. They feel like powerful and malign targets for us to focus on.
The Daily Mail has for a long time been protecting a senior journalist who it knows to be a sexual predator. We are helping his victims get justice by suing the Daily Mail - and him. goodlaw.social/24jb

Friends! Baby Dog and I thought the Kittens might be ready to be introduced to Mr Penguin. I think it’s safe to say they didn’t LOVE him like we do. Maybe it will take some time? Apologies for Baby Dog barking along to Mr Penguin’s Christmas Song. I don’t think he was in tune!

Friends! Ralphy and I had WORDS. We’ve always had DISCUSSIONS from time-to-time. Ralphy pushes it sometimes but I always put him back in his place. No different this time. Mum didn’t see what started this. Was it something to do with the Christmas Tree or the Kittens?

Friends! Who would like to see the BEST example of PATIENCE? Mum says this is Grandad with the Grandchildren when they are literally running rings around him. Do I deserve a medal? 🏅

Friends! It’s proving very difficult for us to post our videos here on BlueSky when the time is so restricted. Mum doesn’t have time to make 2 different edits. Here is the last portion of Part 2 with Baby Dog and Cleo. But to see the full story, please visit X or Instagram ❤️

Friends! Mum has been training the Kittens to trust and use the Catflap. Mum has had to sit, holding it open, for hours, so that they would start using it. Cleo was the brave one… she went in and out pretty fast. But Ron and Percy were very worried. (Full story & video on X / Instagram)

Friends! It’s my birthday today! A day we chose because I was rescued and we don’t know my real birthday or exactly how old I am. I must be around 16 though.
I know 16 is old, but I’m young at heart. Thank you for the love you all give me every day. It makes me feel special 😻
