For a long time I've firmly believed that #NigelFarage doesn't actually want to be PM. This speech absolutely convinces me. He wants to reckless from the sidelines. Unserious. #ReformUK

Given how few days Farage turns up for work, he may need to rethink the 6-days-a-week rule. He'll be the first to falter! 🤷‍♂️ #ReformUK #UKPolitics

Oh dear God the cringe of #ReformUK. Is that lad really a Doctor? If he is, I can be too! 😆

I've been loving Marc serving DiGigia with what racing REALLY looks like when his arms work. 😈 #MotoGP

Sorry, but I still have grave concerns for any nation where #RobertKenyon can come 2nd in a ballot to be a national MP! 🤷‍♂️ That's a fractured country.

When we act like racists wankers, especially given our history, I'm embarrassed to be Irish. Cop on, you ignorant cunts! 🖕

I'd known the true story behind #Landscapers on Sky, but the Olivia Coleman / David Thewlis dark telling is excellent.

Up early with the doggos, and you can't beat a @channel4news.bsky.social documentary. The #SalisburyPoisonings is excellent.

A rare, wonderfully sunny Irish evening rounded off with a Chinese and the entirety of #BigMood series 2. Jaysys, it's excellent...but bugger me, it's too short! ❤️

The rising tide of Hungary gives me such hope. UK, you're next in your local elections. Turn away from the ugliness of Reform UK, they're the very worst of you. Europe needs a UK return to the EU, now more than ever.

Keir Starmer found out who put the figs in the Jacob's Fig Rolls and proscribed them as a terrorist.

Can someone with a modicum of cop-on kindly purchase back #MotoGP, before the 'Sports Entertainment' lot fuck it beyond all recognition, please? K, thanks!

It's taken a very long time to discover the level to which Mandelson was compromised by Epstein. I wonder how many years it'll take to see how compromised Starmer, Cooper et al are by Israel? 🤔

Stop and ask yourself why the AI models and algorithms want your #2016 images. Facial recognition aging? I don't know, but I'm fucked if I'm giving in to them. 🤷‍♂️

So proud of Ireland withdrawing from #Eurovision. Both the EBU & Israel need to learn. If that takes boycotts and Netanyahu in the ICC, so be it!

Have LOVED #TheIrisAffair, but that last episode came from the same writers as the last series of GoT. Talk about "off to the pub, wrap it up!". Fcukin' gutted! 😮

The Government proscribed Palestine Action as terrorists by claiming that secret intelligence justified doing so Newly leaked intelligence report reveals that most of their activity: - Couldn't be described as terrorism - Isn't violent but focused on property damage -Most of that damage is "minor"

Marc Marquez is going to obliterate the entire #MotoGP field through turn 4 at Balaton Park. It's as if the design ethos this was: "Build Marc his ideal corner."
