Left X and FB so this is now my place! I'm happy to follow back, but if I do and it's immediately followed by an inane DM, I'll just block.
Old guy seeking reassurance that I'm not the only one constantly looking around me and thinking 'WTF?'

It's Remembrance Day for Lost Species today, but few seem to mark it this year... Have we lost our ability to grieve, or tossed it away?
Remembrance Day
for Lost Species.
They're not lost,
though, are they?

Not misplaced.
Nor did they stray.
But tossed away
on the galaxy's sea.

We pushed them out,
like little lantern boats.
I hope they find their way.

In leaked recording, Prof Deborah Prentice said it was “clear” Farage would model himself on US president’

What’s to come?

Rachel Reeves says on Laura Kuenssberg that she's asking working people to pay a little bit more.

This was all under the cover of a made up "black hole" whilst refusing to tax the super rich.

This Labour Government showing again exactly who they are and who they serve.

The scale of the Brexit damage forces the less dishonest Brexiters to admit reality.

A judge had granted her protection, saying she could not go back to Sierra Leone because she was tortured there.

So Trump sent her to Ghana--and Ghana now deporting her back to Sierra Leone, where she was tortured during the war.

This is how Trump is getting around judges' orders.

Pure evil.

Trump is using Ghana as a landing country for refugees barred from being sent to their home countries due to real concerns of prosecution.

Once they are in Ghana, the US government can then wipe its hands.

🧵This 58-year-old nurse from Maryland is seen being violently dragged along the ground by officials in Ghana.

Trump deported her there.

This abhorrent & disgusting abuse of a woman who saved American lives and cared for injured and ill Americans for 30 years.

All the details below are worse.

Rabbiatu Kuyateh was detained this summer at her annual ICE check-in, her son said. She moved to the D.C. area 30 years ago as she fled civil war in Sierra Leone.

How the right-wing newspapers still manage to dictate BBC coverage.

Almost all of the Beeb's big post-Budget interview with the Chancellor devoted to asking whether she is a liar.

Next to nothing on any of the big measures announced this week

By popular request, have added a new section to my list of Reform councillors who have gone - those who have left council posts but remained a councillor.

Additions to the list very welcome!

"Why is it that the media wants to convince the electorate of Reform’s apparent impending outright success? Perhaps when we examine who owns these media and social media outlets, whether it be Rupert Murdoch or the tech billionaires, we begin to understand the motivation."

Not being surprised – inaction is our enemies’ lifeline
A sense of outrage, déjà vu and exasperation at the state of the present – the comment “I’m not surprised” is not relevant, the question should be, what to do?

I think it's fair to say the vast majority of our media & press are owned by #RightWing idiots & #Farage fanboys.

Do they REALLY think we're stupid? I honestly think they do.
