The world is officially fucked up right now, and it doesn't seem to have much of an answer on how to stop being so fucked up.

Welfare needs reform. Restrictions on what the card will allow is ridiculous. Do the Tories really think that the card holder wont have a companion who will exchange cash for the purchase at the point of sale or nearby, if they want to buy cigs and booze? @shelaghfogarty.bsky.social

Cheapest petrol local to me is £1.75PL. And the BBC and Laura K spend prime time about a book by a person hardly anyone knows, and most people dont like, which discusses pointless stuff about a woman who has been dead for decades.

I hear constant worries about bluesky funding and future. Personally, Im happy about some level of advertising. Ethical, green companies, orgs which do their best to treat workers and the environment better would be welcome to invest in my opinion. Perhaps a special rate for small independents.

I wonder. Perhaps Farage's timing was a stroke of genius. Midsummer election, decent people are working, other decent people have escaped on holiday. The ones left are the people of Clacton who actually 'holiday' in Clacton, the unemployed, the daytime pissheads and the grey 'racist' voters remain.

This. Trump + family appear untouchable now and he will likely be dead before anything meaningful can be brought against him. The minion enablers wont be though and need to realise action have consequences. Excuses around 'moderating influence' should be rejected.

#TheYearInReform Look, it's very simple. Nothing to see here. Move along. Reform UK is a party - sorry - a company built around British Patriotism and being frank with the public, and it is led by straight-talking anti-elite Nigel Farage.

The BBC is not a propaganda channel. It is an imperfect operator like many others but making this claim is lazy and damaging. The FR want to delegitimise it and getting on board is unhelpful. Despite its flaws it is still the best news source on the planet besides the rest of the brilliant content.

£10billion would feed almost 1m sheltered animals for 10 years. Whichever comparison you use to illustrate this monumental national fraud it's clear that a few people made tonnes of wedge at taxpayers expense which could have been put to better use. Also, interest. Also national debt. Etc

I've never been to Clacton but I suspect it has similarities to my local seaside town, Skegness. I will happily change this hitherto lack of personal representation by sacrificing one of my days of annual leave to distribute leaflets and knock doors in the forthcoming election. Civic duty etc.
