I like to think that I’m a Socialist with a deep green hue. Oh yes, I’m also an Atheist who lives in the UK.
My daughter earned her first Girl Scout badge. Of course it was the meteorology badge. 😄⛈️

Hundreds of thousands of people peacefully protesting & not a word from our national broadcaster. ITV is carrying the story. BBC not fit for purpose when it's deliberately covering up momentous events such as these.

“The problem with socialism,” Thatcher once said, “is that you eventually run out of other people’s money.” The problem with Thatcherism is that it’s run out of ours, argues @russincheshire.bsky.social
Trump is Putin’s bitch.

Over 170,000 children living in temporary accommodation is a national disgrace. Children need safe, warm, stable homes to thrive - when will Labour grasp the nettle on this?
We need to unfreeze the local housing allowance and seriously invest in social housing, now.
The Labour government “affordable housing” scam!!

It costs ~$70 to produce a year’s supply of insulin.
Yet, the average annual cost of insulin went from $2,864 in 2012 to $5,705 in 2016 to $18,000 in 2025. A 25,714% markup. That isn’t inflation or supply chain—It’s corporate greed.
Now—California will sell insulin for $11. Make this nationwide!
Once again, the BBC television audience doing the job that the British press and media should be doing.

I’m not getting bored I’m getting angrier. Our media are hopeless (not news but worth saying again). FarRage smirks his way through Russian betrayal and dodgy house deals.
He is a Traitor.
“This shows that if Israel, with the whole world watching, can treat a well-known, white person with a Swedish passport this way, imagine what they do to Palestinians behind closed doors”
Israel has publicly shamed the Swedish Government… yet they do nothing!
