Woke cat slave, knitter. Glad to be nearer the end of my life than the beginning. I fear for our future.

So, a little more about me. I’m a displaced Londoner living on the North Norfolk coast. I have a grumpy-looking formerly abandoned stray cat, Mr Black aka the layabout, who in fact has the sweetest of natures. I have a fondness for anything hot pink. I also knit, but that’s a whole other story.

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

These companies include fossil fuel giants like Chevron, Shell, and BP, who have been raking in record profits.

I've never hated the Tories more in my life than I do now. Their behaviour over Musk's smears has been utterly contemptible. A mixture of unapologetic bigots and mealy mouthed cowards. The only reason not to wish for their destruction was that they were less bad than Reform but apparently not.

King Charles inherited £650m tax free, gets £125m a year tax free from the tax payer and has an estate worth £22bn that’s never taxed.
But he still needed a 45% pay rise.
