For any confused Americans, dogging is a traditional British term for walking the dog, if you're ever over here and see someone with their pet make sure to tell them how much you love dogging. That nothing makes you happier than seeing that wagging tail and panting mouth out on the heath.

Did you know that a Farage Reform govt intends to scrap the NHS? The private health care system he wants to introduce would cost you £10,000s, like the US, where getting ill can bankrupt you. #ReformUK #Labour #GreenParty #Newcastle #SAFC� #NUFC

This is what I think will happen. People got used to the idea of voting ‘against’ last time around. The target will change from stopping the Tories to stopping Farage & Reform.

Good. Now arrest those who were with him for conspiracy, and then arrest those who tried to set fire to a hotel for arson. And then proscribe the group as a terrorist organisation. Which is what you are if you use violence for political ends. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

There is a lot of misinformation about the UK social security spending. The chart below shows Total UK social security spending as a percentage of GDP, 2013/14 to 2030/31 (spending & forecast) 55% goes to pensioners, the remainder covers everything else. lordslibrary.parliament.uk/welfare-refo...

Rebuilding our relationship with the EU “is the cheapest way to boost the economy, the fastest way to unite Europe in the face of security threats and the best way to get leverage on a global system that no longer has an American anchor.” So obvious it hurts. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Great to hear the PM say “We are going to be much prouder in standing up for our values and the rule of law” re foreign information warfare. I wonder if he or the Home Secretary might consider doing the same when it comes to masked vigilantes shutting down infrastructure and harassing the RNLI

"Chants of 'let them drown' sung by a child over a megaphone" surely must be the moment this UK Government realises that no form of appeasement or persuasion is going to solve this problem. Ban the platforms spreading the lies, proscribe the groups terrorising the country. Act now, for pity's sake.

I’ve a ‘legitimate concern’ for Andy Burnham and the govt: if we don’t crack down on the far right thugs and start hauling them off to prison soon, then any semblance of social cohesion will be lost. You can’t have a rules based society based on selective enforcement of those rules. Get a grip man!

This morning Nick Ferrari challenged Luke Pollard MP about the 5 migrants who made it to Folkestone. Pollard confirmed that all 5 had been apprehended for due processing. Despite this, Ferrari returned to the matter later in his show, and asked again if our borders are really secure.

Robin M @robincm.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
Nick is right of course, but aside from the ‘far right’ label this conduct is plain criminal. They need to crack down on criminals. Irrespective of their political views. When authority starts choosing who to prosecute in fear of upsetting a vocal minority we are on a very slippery slope. Arrest him

I’ve worn a grubby RNLI cap for decades. I sound London, but I was born in Truro and I was a basically feral (Gen X) kid wandering the coast path with a dog until sunset for a lot of my early life. The lifeboats are in the fabric like trawlers and farms and pasties and fish and chips.

Trump’s resistance to any notion of regulation of, or adding mandatory kill switches to, AI is entirely consistent with the idea that he is a sort of Antichrist. The word ‘diabolical’ with its literal meaning comes to mind.

All the money in the world won’t make Reform’s moronic policies workable. It won’t make their people less racist or idiotic. It won’t sort out their ridiculous egos or end the investigations. It won’t make the majority of us loathe them any less. In fact, the money may well bury them. Let’s hope so.

I know this is an obvious point, but what war in Ukraine and now Iran have demonstrated is the myth of the ‘military superpower ‘ at least in the case of Russia and the USA. No idea how China would fare if they attacked Taiwan mind you, but these adventures don’t bode well for them either.

I get the concern about the Deform millions, but not sure how a couple of crooks giving money to another bunch of crooks will sway the electorate in the end. We turfed out a bunch of self serving right wingers last time by tactical voting and I’m quite sure we can do it again. #StopReform
