The West will need to make a decision about #Ukraine very soon. Friends should act. Not letting those on their team suffer. Friendship needs action, that ends the suffering, if we have the means. The assets should have been seized & skies protected before China really gets involved. 🇺🇦 #slavaUkraini

Spot on from @gfcunningham.bsky.social This call cannot be more urgent. Born into autocracy,listening to my grandparents talking about the effects of nazi propaganda on them as young teens & their parents,we absolutely mustn’t underestimate the urgency of this tsunami prevention. Now, not later!

Wonderful long time Cllr Heather Kidd is now a Shropshire Council #LibDem majority leader ready to deliver the long awaited change, stating today: “The organisation has to be more transparent, more efficient, and more positive about working with others … We have to make people’s money work better.”

Really? The best and the brightest? While not spotting abolishing display of local flags won’t be a popular idea? Not spotting people love &are proud of where they live &come from? Not spotting that only confirms they’re devoid of that love altogether. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧 #NeverReform #England #politicsUK #ReformUK

#SupremeCourtRuling Everyone priding themselves in being a feminist: We’re fighting for equality & justice. Any minority discrimination is the very opposite of that.

Day 2 of the @libdems.org.uk Spring Conference in #Harrogate! Security, human rights, economic stability. Starting points for giving all a fair shot. None of that is possible without the rule of law. #LibDems and my local @shropslibdems.bsky.social understand the assignment. #LibDemConference

I am a female condemning #ToxicMasculinity I am a mother of pre-teens. As a female, knowing other females, I also know about #toxic prejudice,attitudes & behaviours developed by females towards men. I spot ‘toxic’ when I see one. There’s an ocean of normalised toxicity on both sides. Let’s end it.

On a train to #London today. Unfortunately it was impossible not to hear the laud conversation of 3 chaps sat nearby,discussing everything from football,their grandads’ passings’,cars to their sex preference and bodily specs. Do you think I said something before getting off? 😂

The question is how to create a fair but efficient working system preventing anti-democracy activities? Unfortunately the disgraced Putin handshaker puppet PM of my native #Slovakia Robert Fico is one of the leaders that pose a threat to democracy and the #FreeWorld. #slovensko #EuropeanUnion🇪🇺

“Reform UK candidate who praised Hitler and Assad put in charge of vetting.” WARNING: This is not a joke. This is an autocratic/fascist / criminal playbook. Take it from someone who lived in autocracy,in a country that after starting as a progressive democracy,then implemented fascism& communism.

If you know anyone who genuinely believes #Europeans 🇪🇺 don’t care about #Britain: In 1940 before the #US joined WW2, much was decided in the Battle of Britain. When so much was saved by so few. These included: 140+Poles,80+ Czechoslovakians,30 Belgians,14 French. They didn’t need to come to Britain🇬🇧

Very unpleasant walking through town wearing wetsuit. Very painful immersing in the cold water. Close to impossible to regulate breathing while immersing. Difficult to calm the brain while numbness of the lips wasn’t going away. Nothing in comparison with what people in #Ukraine 🇺🇦 are going through.

We’re living in a simulation of reality. Fake success,money, affection. We’re told to reject the evidence of our eyes and ears. Ignore logic of the brain. It is the final, most essential command. To surrender all our power. We can still choose though, making this our finest hour. #Churchill would.
