Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 23hIt’s not a surprise that Farage and Tice are involved in ever murkier financial donations. But it should be illegal. And they should be held accountable because, to me, it looks awfully like the sort of money laundering serious political parties should avoid… 0131
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Love Dr John. Seen him live so many times and even if the gags and the poems are the exact same. I love it, and him, afresh. 111
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 01/10/2026*pro birth, ‘they’ rarely give much consideration to the child’s existence beyond that… 000
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Indeed. State controls over life and death can be egregious. I do wonder how those God fearin’ folks console themselves in cases of public execution. I also wonder what the goal is when the person has already been incarcerated for decades and cost a shit ton of money in legal cases and appeals. 100
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 01/10/2026It’s madness that, legally, Esther Rantzen could not choose assisted dying to alleviate her suffering, whilst, in the US, Christa Pike has survived her Government’s initial attempts to kill her by lethal injection. 140
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 19/09/2026I’d take it as a huge compliment if the Telegraph thought my vegan grazebox lunch was pathetic. 050
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Absolutely! Nothing about it supporting women is present in a deeply flawed ‘report’ on our safety which doesn’t mention our biggest threat… 010
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Far right extremism pays well. Why? Because there are millions of disenfranchised people who think ’Restore’ is the answer. Ask yourself what the hell is wrong with our society when the answer to anything is Rupert Lowe? We’re doomed unless we stop allowing politicians to grift. 120
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 23/08/2026It’s hard to hear over the baying of the hounds though right? People did speak up. They were just not heard. 051
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 19/08/2026We should note. It’s a sub-section of conservatives we’re referring to here? 010
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 19/08/2026This is the sort of investigative journalism completely absent from the current, mainstream legacy media. Holding to account those who hold egregious views. A network of racism, eugenics, and hard right politics underscoring the tragic story of Professor Jason Arday. This is well worth a read 👇 010534
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 15/08/2026Subtext: Young black upstart fakes his way into uni because ‘we’ all know that’s that only way ‘they’ deserve it. It’s not considered possible ‘they’ might EVER belong in a privileged position. By right, or by ability. Because, somehow, ‘we’re’ superior, because we possess lower levels of melanin. 021
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Precisely! Caring deeply about our research is what makes us keep going, because it certainly ain’t the money or the ease of life! 020
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 12/08/2026It’s nonsensical really. All science is biased to some extent. All science is driven by interest, motivation, in some cases personal gain. Anyone pursuing their projects with passion and commitment and advocating for positive change is a benefit to society and to science. 010
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Or, let’s frame this differently, there’s no contemporary justification for bludgeoning baby birds, of a protected species, to death. That’s the bottom line. 030
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 04/08/2026The Guga is not bound to anyone or anything: It’s a wild baby bird of a protected species. 000
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 26/07/2026That’s the approximate cost of a by-election. It has to be approved by the chancellor. Reportedly Rachel Reeves permitted it saying “It’s a farce and a desperate distraction but if he wants to spend the Summer arguing with a bin, I won’t stop him.” 020
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Article is paywalled but the quote resonates. There’s no singular intelligence, rather there are intelligences. Processing information is not limited to facts, it’s far more complex. There is no knowledge without experience; that’s unequivocal. AI is not knowledgeable. It has information. 031
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Which one is it if you don’t mind me asking? I go to a lot of vegan fairs so I can look out for it! 110
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Quite right too! I hope their business is a huge success 🌱 110

Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 21/07/2026💯 I wasted so many years persuading myself I didn’t need to change. I absolutely needed to Change, and I’ve never looked back! 100

Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 10/07/2026Gotta do ‘something’ to stay relevant in the age of popularity grifters cosplaying as ‘serious’ politicians right? Conservatives = Reform lite. 041
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 09/07/2026Great analogy for the impacts of social and wealth inequality in this piece. We allow people to fall off cliffs and pay exorbitant amounts of money to patch them up instead of investing in a fence to stop them falling off 👏 011
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 07/07/2026It has to start. The debunking of anti-immigration rhetoric has been poor. Labour don’t seem to realise the threat they face. The only party meeting this head on is the Greens. Everyone else seems to think it’s business as usual. And it’s not, the ‘gammons’ are gaining ground at an alarming pace! 110
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 07/07/2026Farage is finished. The circus of dirty tricks and back handers is over. The pound shop Trump has neither the bombast nor the financiers to dominate the political system. He’s a shoddy, cheaply bought, morally bereft little man who is a stain on our democracy. Enough now. We deserve better. 131
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 24/06/2026It’s hotter. It’s definitely hotter. It isn’t a hoax. This isn’t a drill. 030
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 20/06/2026If more people were prepared to make an actual, discernible difference - our countries would be vastly different. Well said lad. 041
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 22/05/2026The Greens haven’t got off Scot free mind. They’ve candidates resigning over anti-semitism, not realising you can’t also be a teacher, ill health and ‘undisclosed’ reasons to name a few. Each one costing the tax payer to stage by/elections etc 🤦🏻♀️ 010
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 22/05/2026Candidates suggested things like: Melting Nigerians for pothole replacement or they displayed Nazi flags, Islamophobic and racist content (colour me surprised) on social media but leading a double life as a hard-core gay porn star… Tice “when you stand 500 candidates - you’ll get the odd person…” 110
Carol Jasper @drcaroljasper.bsky.social · 15/05/2026Now we just need the media to play ball and stop relentlessly promoting Farage and demonising all or any of the leadership to the left… 040
