Moved from Keir’s conference speech to have a peek at Trump’s meeting with all the General’s. It is completely batshit crazy. They were told that ‘war fighting’ includes being deployed to inner city war zones. This cannot be what they signed up for. Plus Pete Hegseth looks he is as a high as a kite

Is it significant that he referred to the negatives of Brexit a few times in his speech today? It has been the elephant in the room for his time in opposition and first year in government. I dare to hope there will be more of this as it underpins everything that is wrong right now

The Labour conference audience are doing everything they can to support and pep Keir Starmer up with his speech but his delivery is just dullsville and this is as good as it gets. This is who he is

Have these big conference speeches had their day? It looks quite outmoded and does it fit with how politics is being done or should be done now? Whose watching? I’m old school but suspect the audience is tiny

Now that would be a brilliant move!

Have settled down to watch Keir’s speech live. Absolutely hate the compulsory looking flags in the audience

Binge watched all of them a month ago. Kenneth Branagh was so good in this and I was gripped and moved by his take on the Wallender character. All on BBC iplayer too

Hate the increasingly depressing immigration rhetoric from the Home Secretary. Compulsion to ‘volunteer’ is NOT volunteering. More like unpaid labour I would say

Puglia Princess @follies.bsky.social · 29/09/2025

I am not a golf fan but have found this #tydercup quite compelling due to the unbelievably poor loser behaviour of the Americans. It demonstrates to the world how Trump got elected again & how isolated and insular they really want to be. I was stupidly giving them the benefit of the doubt. No more

Yikes! £20 for a pizza at Pizza Express! Left U.K. in 2020 so this price is truly shocking to me. As the pizza there is average at best I think I’d stump up the additional £7 for for a steak at Hawksmoor

Puglia Princess @follies.bsky.social · 28/09/2025

I find this statement sinister and very disappointing from a Labour Home Secretary. It could also be construed as discriminatory by requiring more of immigrants who having jumped through the required hoops then have to prove integration beyond this. We await her examples with interest

The Americans really are bad losers aren’t they? Rude wankers at #rydercup Cone on Europe!

If we are heading down this route to tackle so called illegal immigration, please don’t refer to Digital ID Cards as Brit Cards. It sounds tacky and plays into the populist nationalist playbook

He really has no problem in NOT doing what he says should be done by others. He seems to be fine just fronting it out again and again

Enjoy. It is laugh out loud funny and a perfect distraction to our shit show news agenda right now

No the complete opposite. I have been a committed Labour voter my whole life. I embraced New Labour and the Tony Blair era. I was not a Corbynite but dutifully still voted Labour but one year into this Labour government I am done I think, I really am. I will be voting Green at the next election

Scarily so and it is so disappointing. Cannot believe that a brown Labour woman is prepared to wear the racist mantle that Priti, Suella and Kemi are doing for the Tories. This is an indelible stain on this Labour government

There should now surely be public health warnings with all media reporting of Trump talking on medical, health and pharmaceutical issues. He is endangering lives and the general health of a nation. He is dangerous

Puglia Princess @follies.bsky.social · 22/09/2025

Completely agree with you. Have only recently started watching BBC iplayer from Italy and watched Newsnight for the first time in a year the other night. It used to be a regular watch for me but I was really shocked at its traduced state. A real tragedy

Some very obvious cases that Farage and Yusuf need to be hammered on: 1. 78 year old pensioner on ILR for last 30 years who obviously cannot get work visa 2. 35 year old born in UK to non-nationals, never got UK citizenship because of cost, loses job and has to move to country they've never lived in

This is a good idea - also I would urge those with large accounts who did starter packs to update them for later discoveries and recirculate.

Fuhrage has done it again & grabbed the news agenda & headlines today. I momentarily forgot that the Lib Dem’s are mid conference today as they are getting so little attention. Plus don’t get me started on the Charlie Kirk coverage. A total shit show this Monday morning

Unless you are in Gaza, you can never know the horror. But just imagine… No air raid sirens. No air raid shelters. No places of safety. Hardly any food or clean water. If you survive, you can never think “I’ve survived. I’m going to be OK.” People live from day to day like zombies in a hellscape.

Repugnant proposal to fire up the worst elements of the Reform family. If he ever got near to being able to implement this it would be Windrush 2 but on steroids

A welcome - and long overdue - step. But while it’s necessary, it’s deeply insufficient - and must be accompanied by urgent action to help bring an end to the genocide in Gaza, including boycotts, sanctions and an end to all arms sales to Israel.

Here in Italy there will be a general strike tomorrow to show solidarity with the people of #gaza It will affect public transport services, schools, universities and other public services. The level of take up remains to be seen but the support for the Palestinians is very strong & visible here

Again I agree that Corbyn’s equality credentials are pretty impeccable but I am not as confident of this with regard to some of those around him and in the wider Left generally. I think Sultana’s reference to a boys club, as she sees it and is experiencing should be listened to

Puglia Princess @follies.bsky.social · 20/09/2025

I hear what you say too and your points are well made. Are you keeping faith with the Corbyn side? For me Sultana added a lot to the joint leader ticket but it seems to be an impossible task in any part of the wider Labour movement for a woman to cut through in a leadership role
