Thanks to you I just looked up what a chore jacket was and yaasss. There is a clothing brand in the Uk Community Clothing (clothes made in Britain - wow) so think I'll get saving. It's going to be my new personality soon ๐Ÿ™ƒ

There's a really good article on Lutnick in the recent New Yorker which helped me to understand that this is all just hot air/fluff to prove how much of a deal maker he and Trump are. When they don't even grasp the basic facts. Absolutely insane.

Try and find carer organisations near you. They can help you psychology, maybe help pay for respite/time off? Caring for people is the silent struggle (well put) so many people go through.

This is so confusing, they do not look happy, this is normal? Also why the harnesses? Poor cats

I moved to Manchester in 2001 but this was still spoken about fairly regularly. As you can imagine. What a photo.

Completely agree. Iโ€™ve been a local gov journalist for 12 years and have reported on the fall of local government in that time. Itโ€™s had a massive impact on the fabric of our society, on what makes our communities work. Itโ€™s about more than just bins and roads, itโ€™s about a sense of place and pride.

Unfortunately most peeps in the North of England are aware of this and it sucks. And the tickets for the same routes with different companies can be different prices from what I remember

Awful. The close pass is one of the worst things about sharing a road with cars. In Manchester I would regularly be punishment passed as well. Horrible! Hope you're ok. This driver is actually a *terrible* driver.

Exactly! My friend works at this Council and is so glad. He will also stay longer at his job due to this. Massive for staff retention

Thank you for putting it so succinctly ๐Ÿ˜. What WAS that, and then a cameo of DJT ๐Ÿคฎ. NO.

Too right. They put in the hard yards. They knew they'd get push back and need defend themselves eh! @chloehadj.bsky.social

Yes, these unwarranted opinions/outpourings are always difficult. I never know how to reply! I care about their feelings more than they care about mine that's for sure ๐Ÿ˜„

GP Amir Khan: "These are human beings, they're not economic units.. yes we do need to help some people back to work, but pointing the finger at the sick to help the economy I don't think is the right approach"

The thing is SO many people do believe this stuff. It may be funny but we who find it ridiculous don't realise how many people out there believe all this guff (N.B. I'm reading Noami Klein's Dopplelganger and deep in the conspiracy theories part!!!)

Like all good conspiracy theories there is always a *little bit* of truth amongst the absolutely absurd. Whoever wrote this knows what they are doing, unfortunately
