Want to see how far right the Republican Party has gone?

Watch George H. W. Bush and Ronald Reagan answer a question about illegal immigration during a 1980 debate.

They wouldn’t even be allowed in today’s Republican Party.

The MET police used Live Facial Recognition cameras at Notting Hill Carnival but not todays Far Right Riot.

Why?

Clearly the higher risk was today.

Kick Big Oil Out of Plastics Talks Fossil fuel companies want to keep flooding our home with plastic for profit. They’re trying to block action to tackle plastic pollution - we must stop them.

The good news is, the UK was a positive vocal player in these negotiations, and that's thanks to people around the country taking action.

There's still hope and we can still cut plastic production!

How BBC presents the anti-migrant hotel protests vs how we do at @bylinesnetwork.co.uk

BBC lead with a Reform UK voter saying "We are not happy with these men in this hotel because we fear for our children”

We tell of the refugee children inside the hotel terrified by chants of β€œsend them out!”

80-90% of crime is caused by poverty, outside of Murders and Rapes, it is all driven by the need for money.

The increase in crime in the UK has nothing to do with lack of Police or leniency of the law.

And everything to do with crushing poverty caused by greedy billionaires.

Femi, thank you for this massive, excellent and necessary piece of work!

I would like to make a modest financial contribution in your support, but don't see a Ko-fi (or equivalent) account for you. Is there a convenient way for me to make this happen please?

Thank you kindly! πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘πŸ½

rejoin.info The Rejoin EU knowledge base

This is a superb new resource about rejoining the EU.

rejoin.info

It takes all the thorny questions, and the objections and obstacles people throw in the way of rejoining, and tackles each one slowly, factually and calmly.

Bottom line: we can rejoin. It won't necessarily take a very long time.

Wonderful week being blown away by the @rsno.bsky.social.😊 Last weekend Mozart, this, John Williams. So grateful to have this fantastic orchestra on our doorstep. Special πŸ‘ to @mcpaulz.bsky.social on timpani & Tim Orpen on clarinet but the whole orchestra gives us the most amazing music. Joyous.🎢🩷

JUST IN: After Trump’s tariffs wiped more than $2.5 trillion off U.S. stock markets in less than a day, Liz Truss has awarded Donald Trump with the Golden Lettuce β€” the highest honor in reckless economic policy.

Farage attending the launch of a new staunch climate denial group in the UK that has taken funds from oil giant ExxonMobil ? Not particularly out of character , since Dec 2019 92% of donations to Reform UK were from fossil fuel interest groups or climate deniers , per @desmog.bsky.social .

Honestly with raging madman Elon Musk over at Twitter doing everything he can to destroy it, all Bluesky has to do is up its game slightly and they will take all their users.

Editing, longer videos and better trending tracking of current hot stories would do it.
