Howard Hollingsbee @hhbee.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Watching Widerness with Simon Reeve. What a joy to hear the soft, gentle First Nation Canadian accents. Relief fromthe shouty, whiny Trumpish noise. 000
Howard Hollingsbee @hhbee.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Richard E Grant’s art programme. Quite interesting. He’s unwatchable/unlistenable. Shame. 000
Howard Hollingsbee @hhbee.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Any country retaining judicial death sentence is barbaric and unfit for respect in the modern world. One that uses primitive and patently unsuccessful and injurious methods of execution is way beyond the pale. 000

Howard Hollingsbee @hhbee.bsky.social · 27/09/2026The Orange, in a faint-praise acknowledgment of UK police forces claims “we’ve been following them [the 5 arrested near RAF Fairfoed for some time……”. CTP spokesperson - “this was not intelligence-led”. Wonder whom agonna believe……🙄 000
Howard Hollingsbee @hhbee.bsky.social · 23/09/2026I think I heard the ‘leader’ of the free world say , about climate change “ they said we’ll all be dead in 12 years”. What?? Nobody ever said that. Is he conflating the recent POTENTIAL dangers of AI? Anyway, Trump clearly has mental health issues. A much bigger worry, for all of us. 000
Howard Hollingsbee @hhbee.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Islamic centre overwhelmed by support after damage This is heartening, but the idiots causing the damage are the pits. No time for religion of any kind but, living in an “Islamic state” (a strange concept ) for several years, we experienced only friendship and kindness from a gentle people. 000
Howard Hollingsbee @hhbee.bsky.social · 20/09/2026The Tulcayo. Possibly the most endearing feline I’ve ever seen. Long may she/they survive, as we slash and burn her habitat. 000
Howard Hollingsbee @hhbee.bsky.social · 20/09/2026SO sad that the media think we should take interest in the gaslighting going on between members of two vastly overprivileged families. Even sadder that so many of ‘us’ seem to be. 011
Howard Hollingsbee @hhbee.bsky.social · 20/09/2026And so, one evil, not-very-clever FOF continues to undermine the very best elements of the excellent Constitution of what used to be one of the very best nations in the world. It could be again, it’s still the most powerful but being corrupted from within. Be very afraid, World. 000

Howard Hollingsbee @hhbee.bsky.social · 09/09/2026The predictable reaction to Miliband’s speech yesterday. Jewish people may well feel less safe in UK but that doesn’t mean he’s wrong. It means that people either don’t understand or choose not to understand, the difference between Jewish people and the corrupt and vicious Netanyahu regime. 010

Howard Hollingsbee @hhbee.bsky.social · 08/09/2026This is a disgrace. Brave RNLI volunteers being called scum for risking their lives to save others at sea is just plain wrong. So I've signed an open letter of thanks for the RNLI letting them know these thugs do not speak for the rest of us. Add your name? 020
Howard Hollingsbee @hhbee.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Excellent speech by Ed Milliband today. Pity the media destroyed him as leader. I wish I could talk about it with my late younger brother. Jewish antecedents. But hate the ghastly Netanyahu and Likud and their ethic cleansing actions. Sanctions will have minimal effect but send the right message.1/2 241

Howard Hollingsbee @hhbee.bsky.social · 07/09/2026I very much like the non-judgemental, non-pigeon-holing term ‘neurodivergent’. Sure I’m not alone though, in wondering if Soviet-style brainwashing techniques used neuro-detergent… 000

Howard Hollingsbee @hhbee.bsky.social · 27/08/2026I need to beat myself up. In spite of how bad Season1 of ‘Vigil’ was, I watched the much worse Season 2…. Bad acting, terrible main character, laughable plotting, full of holes. And why can actors never wear a military beret without looking like a casting interview for Dad’s Army….? 010
Howard Hollingsbee @hhbee.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Those ghastly scenes in Nepal/Tibet, where I once spent some time….. gut wrenching. A wake-up call for climate change deniers. But they won’t listen slow-boiling frogs…… 000
