@libdems.org.uk and @pippaheylings.bsky.social will you put pressure on our govt to ensure these humanitarians on a British-flagged vessel are released?
Can the govt tell us what measures were taken to ensure no British-supplied equipment was used in their kidnapping?

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

Hi @teamlabouruk.bsky.social
Can we block Trump from entering the country? I mean - he might not care about counter-tarrifs, but I bet he'd be annoyed about not being able to visit his golf course

Disinforming people about contraception is as wicked as lying about vaccines. Both seem to be done by the same people.
I don't know what the liars gain, but it seems to be others who suffer as a result.

On International Women’s Day, we honour the incredible contributions of women everywhere- those who have broken barriers, stood up for what’s right, and made life better for so many.
But the fight for a fairer and more equal society isn’t over, and we’ll keep pushing for change.

It's sad about trump on Ukraine. I held him in hearty contempt from 2016, but had he actually chosen to end the Russian invasion by a big push on weapons and aid to Ukraine, further russian sanctions & seizing of assets, maybe some clever use of cyber warfare...whatever: he could have become a hero.

Given that mump is president, perhaps the Zelenskyy meeting went as well as it could have: mump showed his colours early, like a scammer laughing before you've read out your credit card number. Imagine if the liar had kept smiling long enough for President Z to sign over mineral rights for nothing.
