Never met him but have followed his career since his Lotto Development Team days

Ha ha

I studiously ignore it although I do go on it very occasionally by accident and then navigate away immediately

Tweet Elon Musk "The EU should be abolished and sovereignty returned to individual countries, so that fovernments can better represent their people" Antwort Dmitry Medveded: "Exactly"

Sehr geehrte demokratische Abgeordnete des Deutschen Bundestags,

der einzige Grund, warum die Plattform X in Deutschland noch Relevanz hat, ist Ihre Anwesenheit dort. Ohne Amts- und Mandatsträger wird die Plattform auch für Journalisten irrelevant und mit ihnen für die gesamte politische Blase.

About time

Although there have been some journalists who have been reporting on him without shying away from allegations

I just ignore it

It’s lengthy but it is very informative

Day 7. Here’s a song for all the lovers out there (watch to the end)

Used to deliver to a house on the estate: nice cottage garden and had an Airstream caravan too. A bit small though (I have a slightly bigger old caravan)

Having just seen @7daz3.bsky.social post on the World Cup (FIFA), he mentioned a song (maybe inadvertently)

But who needs that as an excuse to play some Kraftwerk?

He’s a fighter

Dropped by Lotto à few years ago, he dusted himself off, rosse for small teams and EF Pro Cycling gave him a chance to achieve more

Great news and well done @efprocycling.com

Being a British parent is so weird bc you're actually worried about paying the sky high rent/mortgage & getting GP appointments but the entire press keeps telling you you're worried there's a trans person or immigrant nearby & the vat on Eton means there'll only be two skiing holidays this year

False hearts and fake awards Shakespeare called it ‘mouth honour’; the sort of empty, insincere and superficial praise, delivered with a ‘false heart’ and a ‘false face’, with which tyrants such as Macbeth must make do in the …

Trying to out-Nazi Farage again. What they fail to realize is those people have other better options in the world, we're not near the top of their list

In-between you have those who can’t be bothered to move and then a slew of media and politicians who would move but feel they can’t because of lack of reach (and thus get a dangerous view of the public). More continentals are here than Brits tho

Ignoring those not on it and those not any social media, there are those who have made the move (and cut links), those who have made the move and still have a vague presence there (like me) and those who won’t move ever

Screenshot of an account bio

As expected this Twitter account (see image) has a bit of a right wing agenda to it

Rather unexpectedly for one so “patriotic” and against the EU and “mass uncontrolled immigration” (whatever that means), it’s based in Normandy, France. Bloody immigrants…! As Chris might say
