Now brace yourselves - I did a little thing yesterday. You might want to grab a cuppa, coz it turns out that it goes on for over 5 minutes (sorry about that)! If you run out of time, just skip to the end.

One of those lovely 'by accident' discoveries. Granted, it won't give @michaelrosenyes.bsky.social a run for his money, but I was only 8 when I wrote it. It's a bit Spike Milligan don't you think? Only look back to see how far you've come (still only 5' though, 54 years later) #poetry #childhood

We need *all leaders* outside the US to stand up to Trump.
For that we need to show they have our backing. Add your name and share this link widely, it has never been more critical to have our voices heard:
WorldVsTrump.com
No stopping me when I get going. It seems so little but hat else ca. we do but register discontent?
Support Ukraine, not Trump. Join the World Vs Trump letter: action.eko.org/a/world-lead...
And another one - it's all we can do right now it seems.
I just told Speaker Hoyle to keep Trump out of Parliament - will you do the same? actionstorm.org/petitions/du... #DumpTrump
