STILL waiting for parts after a front spring inexplicably broke early in July, on a car with fewer than 45k miles, no impact, just cruising at about 40mph. What has become of Fiat? #Stellantis #StellantisCustomerCare #Fiat www.facebook.com/share/p/19ow...

Now Trump has posted an AI generated video of himself chasing and hugging the tiger. It's purile, childish and frankly sick. This is the President of the USA. Utterly contemptible USA. What kind of people are you, that you tolerate this?

Every day Putin kills innocent men, women and children in Ukraine, but never forget that the President of the USA is assisting by doing the minimum he can get away with and still pretend he's on the side of the west and US allies.

A young man with mental illness enters an enclosure with a tiger & is killed. It's a tragedy for his family, friends & traumatised onlookers. Some idiot films it & who gets hold of the video & shares it with millions? The President Of The United States. USA where is your gravitas, dignity, humanity?

Sorry, got that wrong, it's slightly less than 1 day's supply of diesel. Oil prices rose today, making a mockery of Trump's claims, but remember Ukraine is not the villan here, it's the USA's unilateral war against Iran. Try this instead. Malcolm Snook books share.google/qUwUcy3NSBah...

Putin must enjoy making a mockery of Trump. As Trump fawns over Putin for 2 days worth of diesel and claims there’s an enegy ceasefire Putin bombs Ukraine’s energy infrastructure. The dishonesty and stupidity of Trump SHOULD be obvious to anyone with 2 brain cells to rub together.

I'm not a fan of Burnham & I've called him Bendy Burnham myself because he seems to me to follow not lead, but for a serious, supposedly, political party, this just exposes their lack of gravitas & competence.

With the car being at the main dealership and with them having some of the parts already I think I'm trapped by #Fiat #Stellantis and no noticeable help from #StellantisCustomerCare

Malcolm @sailorsnook.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
It was a front offside coilspring that broke after fewer than 45,000 miles. The car has full service history, has been cherished and garaged. The sudden unexplained breakage also damaged other suspension components. The dealer now has some of the parts, but not all, so cannot do anything.

The suggestion article 5 not be triggered is totally wrong I think. If Russia kills civilians in Europe article 5 must be triggered. If the USA, the only beneficiary to date, declines to respond, let their perfidy be seen, let no nation trust them again. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Judging by this case yes. I have a lot I could say about the British tax system which is opaque and unfairly taxes the poor, in my view, through frozen allowances. As regards this article we need to encourage, not disincentivise, creativity, investment and entreprenuerial endeavours.
