I am bloody proud to be an #RNLI supporter and member! These brilliant men and women have quite enough to cope with without being harassed by the scum of the earth. Their only concern is to help people in danger at sea - not check passports first! Which is how it should be. Please RT if you agree🙏

Kent police said 'no arrests were made' of the people who blocked a port and roads. There's your two-tier policing, folks www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cm...

R4 Today at it again. Provide a platform for 30p Lee to say dispesal of people seeking asylum doesnt work. Ask him how it worked successfully through La's working hard to address the singles or families issues, support them until their decision is made and to manage successful move-on

Vin Totton @vintot.bsky.social · 12/08/2026
My god R4Today is appalling. Asylum under the spotlight and no reference to yhe following: Good - dispersal across the country was achieved successfully from 1999 Bad - Tory stopped making decisions, started use of hotels , right wing increased their hatred to ensure even dispersal is under threat

As usual listening to R4 (4 my sins) and probation, Governers association commentating on the desperate state of the CJSystem. There is NO reference to what happened over the 14 years to 2024. It appears the media absolves previous Govt from any involvement in managing Govt departments. Appalling

Oh dear, whats up with theToday programme? They try very very hard to pin down a Govt minister on one point, constantly interrupting. BUT are unable and unwilling to interrupt the stream of rubbish from Reform earlier Really really poor

Nigel Farage struck Reform comeback deal long before election
Supervised by the convicted fraudster George Cottrell, the agreement undermines Farage’s claim about when he decided to return to politics

Why does MSM regard murderous and uncaring people who take other people's possessions, ransacking their livelihoods, as 'settlers' in the West Bank? Why do they parrot the Isreali govt on this? Reporters have seen these events first hand - state what you see!

MY GOD!! WATO speaker on Asylum system, Geoffrey Clifton Brown (Tory obvs) criticising the Govt about costs and process! At no point challenged about why the backlog on initial decisions (up to 120k) due to a hiatus on decision making by HIS Govt and leading directly to the rise in hotel use

BH on R4 speaking to Essex Man - amazing how Labour have thwarted people's social mobility problems, housed people seeking asylum, stopped people's children having opportunities - all in two years. Idiots. Think Tory and 14 years of wasted opportunities caused by idealogues so much to unpick

keen to understand why BBCnews at 10pm last night showed two parts of the bulletin resting for 6 seconds on the placards being held stating ' Kier Starmer Jew Harmer' Why are they deliberately doing this? Why does the BBC hate Kier Starmer?

Ignorance is everything! Nick Robinson hardly allowing Ed Miliband to answer Qs about the electrification of the country, citing 'X is drilling more, Y is drilling more, why not here' as if there is no alternative to drilling

With the local elections fast approaching this deserves revisiting: Farage squirms as Rep. Jamie Raskin obliterates the "Putin-loving, free speech imposter, Trump sycophant". Please share as widely as possible. The news media have a convenient habit of forgetting about Farage's service to Russia.

I ask again why Water companies cannot be taken into public ownership at low cost: - they cannot deal with water and sewerage appropriately - they cannot maintain the infrastructure - they are not planning effectively for future W&S needs - they are not managing to retain good supplies of water

Been considering EV' and running costs. I benefit from getting a lot of my charge from my PV panels which, on long trips gives me a big free kick start. BUT charge points are expensive - regularly 80ppkwh. Given the reduced mileage limits the equivalent cost/mile is much higher than petrol.

Mahmoods announcements today undermines the concept of Asylum and Sanctuary. Engaging the 1951 Convention means people have satisfied the criteria necessary to start a new life away from their homeland. To change this undermines the state, the people and the Convention.

listening to Gavin Barwell on BBC r4 just now. He has been so affected by the drama that has been the Tory party over the last 15 years that he can simply say 'others should have a go' at the highest position in the land. judt look at what happened over the ladt 15 years and tell me how that went🤦‍♂️
