Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 13/10/2026Not having a referendum will give Farage a platform. Anyhow I will expect the EU to require a referendum barring a pro EU landslide at a GE. Brexiters are already sniffing blood. 100
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 13/10/2026The EU is likely to demand a referendum. That said, Brexiters are trying to drum up their mob by saying there may not be a referendum. 210
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 12/10/2026George Galloway being a piece of shit as always. He wants to see Ukraine and Ukrainians wiped off the map. 010
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 04/10/2026No ref has its fans. The exceptionalism just oozes. The EU needs to ask for a referendum for this reason alone. 110
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Donald Trump as a fish and chip stop owner in Yorkshire is where AI has led us. And I thought the future held flying cars. 020
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Reform UK leader Nigel Farage actually typed this into the internet. Please don't adjust your irony meter. 89701181
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Reform "supporting" local families in South Tyneside. 043
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Woke up this morning to this. People in South Tyneside realizing who Reform are. 100
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Reform causing problems in South Tyneside by closing nurseries. 020
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Apart from the AfD not currently standing a chance of forming a government and Le Pen being to the left of Burnham there needs to be prize for spotting the obvious flaw in Mr Neill's economic argument. A subtle hint below. 020
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 18/09/2026That's David Henig pwned. Yeah votes have consequences. 110
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 17/09/2026I live in Trump country. I live 2 doors down from a Dollar General (it was not here when I moved here however they built it a few years ago.... the second Dollar General in town and the 4th Dollar store). I saw this in Dollar General's car park. So yeah America has a problem 010
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 05/09/2026The appropriate authorities should also look into violence at the Reform Conference. 091
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 05/09/2026More people who need arresting at the Reform conference where protesters are assaulted. 010
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 05/09/2026So if you have them with an egg on top will they be croque madame? My favorite chips are Lay's Limón 110
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 28/08/2026The quote is from some nonsense fiction book. It inspired a few good memes though. 110
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Populism is based on the Ad Populum fallacy that gives the illusion that bad ideas are true if they garner enough support. The red and green down and upvotes on the comment section on Daily Mail articles is a good example. Climate change denial being the best example. 030
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 14/08/2026A lack of growth in the EC spurred on Thatcher to send Baron Cockfield (pronounced Co-field) to Europe and his solution was the Single Market. I would contend that Britain's vision of the SM at the outset was transactional rather than a binding part of European unity. 173
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 12/08/2026You cannot get more British than election results at a local leisure centre with a silly candidate standing next to a man wearing a baked bean mask. 010
Bob Shields @robbo03.bsky.social · 04/08/2026The one quality I saw in Liddle is he would stand up for free speech even when today's fanboys probably would not agree with him. Other wise he was an edgelord (albeit not as dumb as the likes of Musk) trying to provoke a reaction A troll in print. www.thetimes.com/comment/arti... 000
