MPs are speaking up about the need for proportional representation during debate on the Representation of the People Bill. Do you agree with Manuela that the UK should change how it elects MPs?

Keir Starmer and David Lammy are taking an extraordinarily dangerous gamble with our individual liberty This week, MPs will vote on the second reading of the Courts and Tribunals Bill. Don’t let the anodyne name fool you – this is one of the most revolutionary pieces of legislation in our…

The Courts and Tribunals Bill will remove your right to a jury trial for serious criminal offences.

Toff magistrates/judges will decide your fate.

Chances of miscarriage of justice will increase. Working class, poor, minorities will be the biggest losers.

I can see the top spot is reserved for Lyme😊

People are no longing objecting to PR because they thought it would allow the far right to win - Reason: The far right are winning under FPTP and could become the government on less than 30% of the vote. They are already in control of many councils. People have had a reality check!

Happy #PumpClipWednesday #Dorset The Olive Branch, Wimborne, Dorset.

The UK’s expensive deterrent with an inbuilt kill switch controlled in Washington DC🤔

It would be expedient to miss the ‘tried’ element🤔

Actually, whilst I prefer real ale, when it comes to lager, Korev just hits the spot, but lets not forget Tribute and Proper Job from St Austell brewery😊✅

St Austell's Korev. "Like waves crashing against our shores, this is the coast in a bottle." A tad over the top maybe but a well-made genuine Cornish lager. Cornish-grown barley. Refreshing & crisp. Unlike "Cornish" Doom Bar bottled in Burton. #BskyBeer

It’s outrageous that the majority of our lawmakers are unelected. Sign now to demand power be placed rightfully in the hands of the people It takes 30 seconds

The House of Lords is currently obstructing progress of the removal of hereditary peers and as such stalling the start of a truer democracy, which should lead to an elected second chamber - sign @electoralreform.bsky.social‬'s call to demand change.

BREAKING: Sharp's Brewery in Cornwall, maker of UK's best-selling Cask ale, Doom Bar, to close, 50 jobs lost. US-Canadian owner Molson Coors, say it's financially unsustainable. Meanwhile MC investing heavily in relaunch of Carling Black Label. Fate of Burton brewed bottled version unknown #BskyBeer

The Isles of Scilly, an appropriate location for the House of Commons, out of reach, out of earshot, out of influence, one can only wish😊

Good to support our home produce here in Dorset😊✅

It’s difficult to appreciate when walking the hill what your are traversing, but an aerial view so captures it😊

📍 Hambledon Hill, Dorset.

Rising up to 190 metres above the valley below, this was once home to an Iron Age hillfort, where thousands of people would have lived their lives.

Today, it's a National Nature Reserve, home to 28 butterfly species, wildflowers and chalk grassland.

For me, synonymous with holiday Saturdays, Salisbury to Exeter St Davids/Paignton😊

Happy #PostBoxSaturday #Dorset #Wareham G5R Pillar Box, Westminster Road, Wareham, Dorset. Probably not its original location, looking isolated, although most are in Dorset😊

They should move out of London to a purpose built Parliament, which incorporates a reduced size HOL, that is elected by the people. Banbury looks a good spot, failing that, we have some space here in Dorset, although to be honest, the further away politicians are the better😊

Just a note, Hall & Woodhouse will be celebrating their 250th anniversary next year, in addition Palmers in Bridport will be 232 years old this year. Brewing still survives well here in Dorset😊

A place I enjoy visiting regularly, also along with a visit to the Square & Compass in Worth🍺😊
