Ah those blue Yorkshire skies ….

Lovely pic. Ive climbed that mt a couple of times. Hard going.

The Pilgrim Fathers were Christian fundamentalists who burned witches. Not much has changed

Or verv very tall fuckwits?

Spain MEP Irene Montero: “Send your son, Donald Trump — If you want war, send your own people to the front line. We in Spain want our children, our daughters, & our loved ones at home, safe. We don’t want war — those who want war should send their own children”

Well said Peter.

Farage hasn’t a midge’s dick of humanity in him. Seriously damaged as a child, obviously, but an obvious danger to GB democracy ( and common goodness and empathy)

In my eight decades here I can’t think of a time of greater lunacy. From Farage to Trump, Oban to Badenstock - Netanyahu to Putin - everywhere I look the lunatics are crawling and gibbering in every corridor in the asylum.

So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion.

That's $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

Thousands of lives lost.

People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

Lest we forget what a rich over promoted and dangerous onanist this man was - and still is.

It’s more serious than that. The WH knows that serious people will see through their psy-ops on the US but the knuckle draggers won’t. Before Rome fell it was Bread n Circuses - before the US falls (and it will) it will be Fox News & Fake News. All empires fail some faster than others.

Boris Johnson says Keir Starmer has made us an irrelevance on the world stage...

Happy Daze.

Decided to part with this one. An illustration I made when my mum was ill & one of the last she saw me make. A piece probably about grief, illness, sadness & departure so of course I called it ‘Don’t Look Meow’ 🤷🏼‍♂️

The BBC has been Frankenstein to the monster Farage and their refusal to acknowledge it is an open sore in our culture.

Absolutely

On a corporate lie. The Iraq war was great for business. As is the regime change in Iran.

My mum and dad used to go dancing there when he was home on leave. Lots of US airmen - also lots of fights.

Polling holds too much sway over our democracy and governance. But the G&D by-election does show that Reform’s dominance is inflated by foreign/rightwing interests, irresponsible media support and Farage’s ego.
If progressives can win despite all that, then hatred really is overpriced. Hope can win.

Brilliant three post taking down of the shitshow that is Trump’s America.

Gallops

My partner has had a truly rotten couple of weeks discovering that her beautiful artwork has been stolen & sold by sellers (a print we purchased to do detective work👇🏻) on Amazon, Temu, Redbubble, Etsy & others.

Please visit her own Etsy shop & cheer her up www.etsy.com/uk/shop/Clar... Thanks 🙏🏻

He’s got heel spurs.

A vote for Matt Goodwin/Reform in #GortonAndDenton is a vote for racism and misogyny. A vote to shame the constituency, to divide and fail it. It’s a vote that takes no responsibility for its consequences because it hasn’t thought about them and doesn’t care enough to do that.
Don’t be that voter.

Most people in England & Wales are not Christian, and it’s axiomatic to a free society that religious beliefs - or the lack of them - are irrelevant to civic participation. Britain is a pluralist, not a Christian, society; and this is one more reason to fight Reform UK.

The Board of Peace!

Correct. No other explanation. He really does seem quite gutless.

Amen. So far it seems Starmer has insisted that though Russian interference is being investigated - the remit does not include Brexit. Ridiculous and suspicious.
