It's almost as if they're trolling the entire population.

It's a decent watch though.

Other countries in Europe have similar characters, but electoral systems mitigate against them achieving power.

Whereas our system? Not so.

Worrying times.

Farage would love to help Putin dismantle the European Union...he already piloted Brexit, much to Putin's joy.

The right wing media I'm the UK (that's the majority of print, some TV and the National broadcasters news content) are all gunning to get The Dotard's buddy Nigel Farage into a position of power - ie the Prime Minister.

A buddy of Bannon, Putin et al, a true piece of shit racist.

The Dotard should realise that "Europe" has been around a shit load longer than the moribund US of A...the country he is engineering the destruction of.

"Labour" is implementing a lot of what was in its manifesto, but it is also bending over to the right wing xenophobic tendency, and trashing the environment too.

Two things we wouldn't normally expect from the party with that name.

Yep, Brexit has hamstrung this country in the post-Covid period. It would have hamstrung us anyway.

Sadly our media is controlled by mostly right wing arseholes (Murdoch especially), and we have a significant percentage of morons in our electorate who cannot think for themselves, or critically.

Reform UK used this graphic during the Local Elections to criticise Councils.

Now the councils they control are raising Council Tax by the same or more.

Reform UK lie their way in to power.

They should bring it back, in all it's harking back to "a better time" glory.

The sort of "screen time" you wouldn't argue against.

My first bird of the day.

For the third day running it's a Song Thrush, but possibly a different bird, as he's singing about 200m away from the stand of trees where the year's most vocal bird usually is.

There has been song from one of these birds for easily ¾ of the year.

Just a small note to mostly American* posters.

Please stop using so many hybrid words.

This morning I've seen "milprep", in relation to the new hackable American military planning system.

I assume it means "military preparation".

If so, just type military preparation.

*it is by & large US users

My suspicion of AI is in my "battle rhythm" every day, that's for sure.

They are hard to find in all media.

Took me ages to track down a CD of their debut.

You'd have had a great day then.

What a roster of excellence.

Some Sideway Look maybe?

America is fucked. Example #37

It must be hard to do in detail, but there is an old Hertfordshire accent, which still persists around Hemel Hempstead and points NW in Herts.

Sign the petition to end peat sales! No more delays: Let's get peat out of gardens once and for all. The time for uncertainty has ended.

If you care at all about wildlife please sign and share this petition to end peat-based compost sales in the UK. actnow.peatfreepartnership.org.uk/end-peat-sal... Lowland raised bogs are one of the rarest habitat types in the UK, peat is not needed for growing.

Cos Wes n Keir are getting a massive kickback?

As if we didn't know already...Eezakunt.

I might as well put "yes" on the question about Communist Party membership.

The Dotard wouldn't like what I've been saying about him on social media.

Don't intend visiting the US anyway. Plenty of other places more worthy.

Is @pimlicoplumbers.bsky.social still associated with that Rod Stewart lookalike?

They might want to distance themselves...

America is fucked.

Example #23781

Seaham Reform councillor's firm fined over illegal worker Durham councillor Andrew Harrison says the worker was legal and he is appealing against the fine.

Reform UK councillor Andrew Harrison's business was fined £40,000 for hiring an "illegal immigrant."

Almost like these people are shameless, two faced hypocrites isn't it

Mine is going to be Jeff Tweedy's new triple (!) album.

For an already fairly prolific writer to be able to gather 30 songs of a diverse nature is remarkable enough, but the quality of those songs is really consistently high.

Mike appears to be a fucking idiot.

Aside from Lesser White Front in 1976 that would be the best bird I ever saw at Slimbridge.*

*apart from the Sunbitterns in the tropical shed.

Just No.
