Like others, I understand why they released the fact that the perpetrator of the horrendous Liverpool attack was a white British man.

But it is a bad sign of where our country of at.

Nationality or ethnicity are not the causes of crime & should not be our first concern #r4today

The Media are culpable as they fail to report that pensions have gone up and those who need it are still getting winter fuel payments. The media handing Farage victory on a plate

The good people of Lima feeding and looking after the cats in Kennedy Park Miraflores. Great to see such love in a world full of greed and violence

Visited this pre-Inca pyramid in Lima and the ancient civilisations built it with earthquake proof strategies! I’m sure this will stand the test better than many other Lima buildings

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 .

I seem to have upset the Nigel Farage fan club - so let me be clear.

This man sows hate, lies and division.

He is a grifter and a conman.

He does not represent the vast majority of Britons.

Repost if you agree

P.s. multiculturalism is great.

Bring back Erasmus+ and youth mobility in Europe Taking Britain out of the Erasmus+ programme was a huge mistake. Labour must rejoin and accept the EU’s offer of a youth mobility scheme

Our youth have been robbed of the freedom of movement we enjoyed - this is the absolute least the Gov’t can do for them
