I'm a history loving lefty in the UK who will do what it takes to rid our country of the far right. I also love my cat Boudicca and I'm a suicide survivor.

Three thousand years ago, a Greek potter looked at a bowl and thought: ‘You know what this needs? A leg!’ Clay bowl with leg-shaped handle!🦵😆 Early Geometric period 850 BC. Altes Museum, Berlin 📷 by me #Archaeology
My photo shows an ancient Greek pottery bowl with a rounded, deep body, wide open mouth and flared rim. It has a large handle shaped like a human leg, extending from the left side of the bowl in my photo, bending at a right angle and ending in a flat foot. The bowl has a camel-coloured surface decorated with dark brown geometric patterns, which include zigzags and meander motifs arranged in horizontal bands around the body of the bowl and along the leg. From Attica, Early Geometric period, circa 850 BC. It sits on a light stone coloured surface in a display case at the Altes Museum in Berlin.

I double-checked this on a couple of Xitter stat sites and it's true. Average views of the main AfD account dropped 90% and average engagement dropped by 60%. This is commercial social media for you: bots, damn bots and Russian bots.

FYI...Trump CAN'T go after people who say this, claiming defamation BECAUSE filing a defamation lawsuit makes available to defense lawyers, for use at trial, all the Epstein files that AG Blanche is trying to block. It's called "discovery" and Trump doesn't want "evidence" "discovered".

The major platforms—Facebook, YouTube, and X—are all refusing to show the trailer for the upcoming documentary that eviscerates the ridiculous pest Elon Musk. So I guess we have to do our part to make sure it is seen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eY_8...

The ability to pour hundreds of millions of pounds into a loss-making TV channel, bent on wrenching British politics sharply to the right, is yet another of the ways in which extreme wealth is trying to remake UK democracy. It needs to be part of any serious conversation about political funding.

Reform UK wants power. But the party is haemorrhaging the people it recruits, with councillors resigning, being suspended or quitting. Since May, 51 Reform UK councillors have abandoned the party. We are keeping track: bestforbritain.org/reform-uk-defect…

The response when progressive policies that help millions of people are proposed... "How will you pay for it?" The response when the richest 1% ask for tax cuts, or banks ask for bailouts, or defense contractors ask for more contracts... "How much do you need?" It doesn't have to be this way.

Even if you're not a hardcore Greenie, electing Zack Polanski would make UK politics more healthy because he would help to hold Andy Burnham's government to account. His influence from the periphery has already improved Labour policies. The Commons needs Polanski, so please help him to get elected.

So, Banksy bought a used yacht, repaired it and retrofitted it to serve as a rescue boat to save migrants in the central Mediterranean. The whole project cost the artist $860,000. Since 2020, the boat has saved more than 3,800 people. londondaily.com/banksy-funds...
