I am having a slow Sunday today , still in my pyjamas, reading and commenting here and Substack. Slow days are sometimes needed. So I don't feel guilty at all. Just need a coffee ☕ 😊

Yes unimpressed. It's not difficult to actually stand for something. Artists have a platform to do so. The crocodile tears are not washing.

Because corporatism leads to fascism/plutocracy.

Has anyone started stockpiling ? I have not yet, been too busy. I am sick of hearing about doom and gloom war , and the impending El Nino coming. It's like we cannot catch a break. The only thing I am finding totally fascinating is the Earl Spencer book and the fall out.

I apologize for the shameless plug, but I hate Instagram algorithms and prefer Blue Sky ,Pinterest and Substack, I don't do subscriptions just free articles. It's a slow build, but having the freedom to do my own thing is great. I also have another account on here: rootslightcreative.bsky.social

Where are the arrests ? How is this acceptable? Disgusting. Pensioners arrested for peacefully protesting. And these thugs nothing happens.

Seems the difference between ‘protestors’ and ‘terrorists’ is that protestors wear balaclavas while terrorists hold placards.

So far there have been 458 deportations of Brits from Sweden due to the affected citizens not willing, able or just not knowing that they needed to apply for residency. The UK Labour government caused this due to not supporting FoM. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The Jason Arday story is by no means the biggest scandal at Cambridge University. I'm sure the media is going to pick this up and run with it in just the same way ... Or is the exaggerated CV of one Black professor somehow more important than this?

We need to remind people next Election ,this is how Reform treat women.

This week Andy Burnham has.. U-turned on spending £39bn on council houses. U-turned on taking control of Thames water. U-turned on supporting a political funding cap. Ruled out any more financial support for the poorest. Despite energy bills going up by 17% since becoming PM! #MoreOfTheSame 😤

Because his donor lobbyists pull the strings , Labour are a joke. No different from Tories and Reform.

021

Let's face it the past 20 years plus, British politics has been an absolute shit show shed of corruption and political donations from the fossil fuel industry and Oligarchs. They all contributed to this mess and UK decline for the past 20 years, the country has been asset stripped.

023

Furious that UK is in such a mess. Even the announcement about stock piling is too little too late and will cause panic buying. If there are real threats why are we building data centres that take up alot of resources, taking part in wars that put everything under strain. Because it's about money.

“Its 2017 report on the impact of Brexit warned that the UK would need to invest in skilled workers in the construction industry, but that has failed to happen.” How Brexit and dumb-arse “red lines” continue to stop us in our tracks and stifle growth. Mad. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Brexit skills crisis puts Burnham’s council house building pledge under threat

Exclusive: A lack of skilled workers and the impact of millions not being able to work here since Brexit means more than 200,000 EU workers have left the industry

It's like Cadbury 's and Lindt , I can't buy those brands anymore , because the chocolate is not good anymore. They are investing in cocoa beans grown in labs and not cocoa farmers. I have made a conscious choice not to buy anything with rubbish in it too. Take over of Cadbury 's was awful.

This really bugs me!😤 It seems so obvious but why would you accept a freebie and not ask what does the donor want in return?🤔 MPs can afford to pay for their own tickets or travel, to attend special events. When so many in 🇬🇧 are struggling financially why can’t they see how this looks?🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️
