🌿 Sorrel is one of the last plants to die down in autumn. To get that zesty flavour all winter: 1️⃣ Cover a few outdoor plants with cloches. 2️⃣ Move roots into a cold greenhouse. 3️⃣ Sow seeds in pots in summer for indoor pickings. Grow guide here : vegplotter.com/grow-guides/...

Wales is showing that ending profit-making in children’s social care can be done. The first phase of the Welsh Government’s reforms is now underway — with all new children’s homes and fostering providers required to operate on a not-for-profit basis. Why aren't we doing this in England?

Americans who want to watch a public execution are far more like the nations they consider enemies (Iran and Afghanistan) than they openly admit. Same with celebrating when govt. henchmen shoot citizens dead on the streets (Iran, Syria, North Korea). Does the US classify itself as a 'rogue state'?

Zelensky accused Trump of reaching agreements with Putin “behind Ukraine’s back” while Kyiv’s delegation is in Florida. He said the US is giving Russia “additional money to wage war” and called Ukraine’s team a “smokescreen” for a decision that is “unfair” and “not partner-like.” #Ukraine

'Trans women are women' mantra exists *because* * men demanding access to women's and girls' single-sex spaces & services * male rapists in women's prisons * men redefining what it is to be a woman * men adopting sexist stereotypes to claim femininity equals woman are all objectively appalling.

Sex certainly matters. If the party can’t deal with science and reality it’s not fit for power. Women are 51% of the population & we vote. Women are watching. Climate change & biodiversity loss concerns us. Dump this nonsense if you want our vote.

London’s thrilling underground network, 1961. “Visitors are always fascinated by the escalators, the brightly-lit stations, and the rush of the trains from the dark tunnels”. Artist: Robert Ayton (1961)
Passengers wait on a platform for a train that is approaching around an unlikely bend in the tracks. Some of the passengers are dressed formally with suits and bowler hats and some are looking very groovy.

Trans activist transfers trans issue to another issue i.e. in this case racism because trans activist knows that it is wholly unacceptable for safe womens spaces to be intruded on so activist tries to attach acceptability to the another route. The weakness of trans activism just gets clearer.
