Anybody seen this reported in the media, considering the hysteria around small boat arrivals I'd expect this to be front page news. How is Labour expected to get its message across when our media wilfully refuses to report any positives.

The UK, where the day after a decision to take half a million children out of poverty, the media & political world has been full of sneering at those same children & their families, labelling them as ‘Benefits Street’, while the same people are moaning about a tax on £2m mansions. Shameful stuff.

Yes, I was born in Hoyland Common, where most of Kes was filmed. Yes, it does bring back good memories, I think it is time to watch it again.

Kes & A Kestrel For A Knave Kes directed by Ken Loach from the novel A Kestrel For A Knave by Barry Hines. David Bradley plays Billy Casper. Produced by Tony Garnet.

It is 56 years today since the premier of Kes directed by Ken Loach took place, based on the book A Kestrel For A Knave by Barry Hines. This article is dedicated to both the book & film.

The filming was done in the mining village where I was born. My father and grandad appear briefly, which is great to watch the dvd and see them both again. I have a very brief appearance as an extra.

The path from abusing foreigners to abusing the disabled is well-trodden. I I hope this nugget is bright enough to reflect on who else has walked it.

Poor showing this time, my worst ever, just confirms that the 80s were not my strongest decade, fell out of love with music after the glorious 60s and 70s.

Hi Rich

Not my strongest era, but here goes;

1. Pretenders- Pretenders
2. Eurythmics - In the garden
3. Bon Jovi - Bon Jovi
4. Metallica - Kill 'em all
5. REM - Mutual

1. The UK is forecast to be the second-fastest growing of the world's most advanced economies this year. IMF) 2. Deposit Returns Scheme on drinks containers from Oct 27 to run in major supermarkets in England/Wales 3. Every Labour MP voted to ban the badger cull 👏👏👏 4. Landmark Planning and Infrastructure Bill – a key driver for growth to slash planning delays 5. New Fair Work Agency will transform how employment rights are enforced across the UK. 6. Deprived communities to get new flood defences faster  7. Sellafield Ltd awards £2.9bn infrastructure contracts 8. £84 million injection to tackle homelessness 9. Half of rail operators publicly owned with Greater Anglia onboard 10. First illegal migrants returned under new UK-France agreement 11. Patients in poorer areas to get better access to GPs 12. 10,600 new UK jobs have be

So not only have Labour been pivotal on the world stage they’re delivering for the homeless, protecting homes/businesses from flooding and slashing delays to get housing built. All in a normal week under a Labour government. Oh and the economy is still outperforming most, bar US

Think this will be my number one, love it

- [ ] Great British Energy launched to power UK’s clean energy future - [ ] Water companies put under special measures with tougher regulation - [ ] Britain set to become a clean energy superpower - [ ] National Minimum Wage increased for over 3 million workers - [ ] Employment Rights Bill delivers biggest boost to workers’ protections in a generation - [ ] Major infrastructure investment in broadband, transport, and digital networks - [ ] NHS funding boosted with record investment in repairs and new hospitals - [ ] Education funding increased and school rebuilding programme expanded - [ ] 1.5 million new homes target set as part of Labour’s Plan for Change - [ ] Planning reforms fast-track green energy and infrastructure projects

This is my Labour Top Ten.

Since July 2024 they have delivered consistently for this country and the ordinary people who voted for them. No wonder the elite are squealing.

It is the duty of our media to inform and report on the bad actors who threaten our very existence. Russia, Iran, the Taliban, Farage, Robinson, Tice, Reform. Yet they won’t and they don’t. Because they’re on the take too. There is no other reason. None. They’re all traitors.

I've seen this photo used on a lot of accounts, all the same, hardly any followers and following all men. Blocked every one of them
