All across Europe, homes are disappearing for ordinary people. Families freeze, students struggle, locals are pushed out — while investors get richer. Sign now to tell EU leaders: Homes for people, not profit.👉 action.wemove.eu/sign/2025-11...

And really, what worse punishment could there be for a poet?
A mere distraction from the Epstein files!

09.09.2025 02:24 — 👍 284 🔁 87 💬 16 📌 4Absolutely. Europeans are watching the huge migration of Americans attempting to migrate to Europe. Not that the EU has a backbone currently regarding defending Israel’s genocide of Palestinians
29.08.2025 02:36 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0It’s a typical case of the emperor’s new clothes where Trump is concerned. Exposed as all style & no substance, gravitas or ability to grasp how his ego governs basic moral decisions. In international relations enabling rogue nations freedom to commit atrocities is ruining America’s reputation
16.08.2025 02:22 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Yeah, I’m in Gaza. Me and my family are living in a tent, and we’re going through the worst time of the war. There’s literally no food — we’re surviving on just water and salt. The famine in Gaza isn’t a lie. We’re dying a hundred times every single day.
06.08.2025 01:35 — 👍 1 🔁 1 💬 1 📌 0What’s your family’s story, names, history, ancestry. I will make note of it my brother. We know from doctors sent from medicans sans frontieres of the famine. Stay safe 💐
06.08.2025 01:45 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Tell me what is happening, as it seems like you are experiencing a famine. Are you in Gaza?
06.08.2025 01:24 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 3 📌 0In Europe we are fully aware of what’s happening in Gaza. If you would like me to share your personal experience, let me know.
06.08.2025 01:09 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Much respect to this honourable gentleman. Listening to people who have survived, evaluate the world now, should be listened to. Peace is a powerful & precious thing. The indifference to suffering of others & the genocide in #Gaza shames humanity
06.08.2025 00:53 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0So true with vulture funds buying up properties. Truly returning to Dickensian times with our current Governments enabling speculators & creating a needless homeless crisis. Who are the real criminals?
06.08.2025 00:35 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Only now! Shut OUR countries down permanently. Sorry but no more sob stories from these uncivilised men who absolutely prey on vulnerable children & women. Sick of political correctness 💅🏻 call a spade a spade, our taxpayers are paying for this abuse of trust & getting sick of it
03.08.2025 02:27 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0France, Ireland & Spain has already done so. The caveat is UK is not a EU member state, & Starmer has deliberately done his usual deflection giving Israel 3 months to comply…September, most Palestinians will be dead by then. Sickening behaviour
30.07.2025 02:58 — 👍 1 🔁 1 💬 0 📌 0They should do it regardless of what Israel does, and they should inform Israel of that now. I doubt it would give Israel pause on how the Palestinians are treated, but there are more legal protections for a State than the current situation. Israel's past should remind them how the Nazis operated.
29.07.2025 21:17 — 👍 2 🔁 1 💬 0 📌 0Hypocrisy, recognise the Palestinian state now. Keir Starmer hasn’t a backbone in his body to actually address the famine evolving in Gaza. Sickening man who has ignored the huge protests across the UK supporting Palestinians, in fact criminalised many for speaking out. History will tell ⚖️
30.07.2025 02:48 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0We understand that in Europe my friend, don’t be embarrassed. We know the intransigent nature of Trump, & he doesn’t represent American people. We understand his aggrandising his friends to destabilise every economy. We are resourceful in Europe if we ignore Von der Leyen

I hope to fly again to see them next year (2 years in a row was extremely expensive ‘23 & ‘24). Just discussing the cost of living with my daughter in law, it’s shocking!
28.07.2025 03:24 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Let’s hope. Always welcome here. Awaiting my call with my daughter in law in Perth, WA a most beautiful girl. I could relocate there in a heartbeat, it’s so beautiful. Family is so important
28.07.2025 02:54 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Well my husband would talk your ear off, as he would regale you with his Italian ancestry. And we would welcome you wholeheartedly to Ireland dear friend. If you ever come, I hope you like French food (cooked exclusively by me) it would be an honour to invite you into our family
