America's most notorious child rapist, Jeffrey Epstein, said this man was the worst person he'd ever met. Let that sink in.

Feel your pain!

We had wraps last night! He wonโ€™t eat chicken or most meat either, we compromised on quorn but he doesnโ€™t really like that either. Most days he eats marmite sandwiches, and i canโ€™t get hold of the low salt version any more. I have a few โ€˜deconstructedโ€™ meals I can do for him.

So bored of meals at the moment. What can I make that my autistic son will eat?

So many of the โ€˜ideasโ€™ for #autistic kids seem to forget that many kids cannot have different foods touching each other so a โ€˜simpleโ€™ pasta with stuff in isnโ€™t gonna work here!

Any go-to recipes?

โ€œTrump & Brexit are not 2 different things. They are the same thing. Same companies. Same data. Same Facebook. Same Russians. Same Cambridge Analytica. Same Robert Mercer. Same Steve Bannon. Same Breitbart. Same Alexander Nix. Same Donald Trump. Same Nigel Farageโ€ @carolecadwalla.bsky.social

We never should have left those. Brexit was about the EU not the common market.

The BBC have always been biased against me. As I explained in detail during my 38 appearances on BBC Question Time.

BBC should play Farage at his own game and announce they respect that Mr Farage doesn't want to engage with BBC and will henceforth not contact him.

Then each time they would have done so, they'll say "We haven't contacted Reform UK leader as we're respecting his wish not to be approached by BBC"

Stupid thing is, Trump did incite the riots, whether the clips were spliced together or not, itโ€™s still true!

BBC News is a total joke.

The Tory paymasters are stoking up rumours of a leadership challenge in Labour.

And reporting on โ€˜vitalโ€™ research that shouting at seagulls will get them away from your chips instead of โ€˜talking to themโ€™

โ€˜Most trusted UK news outletโ€™ apparently

Honestly ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ

The BBC is ours. It's ours to love. Ours to criticise. Ours to shout at when we feel in the mood.

And if Farage thinks that the way to win favour with voters is to stand around cheering as Trump takes down the BBC for $1 billion of personal enrichment then he's a bigger fool than anyone thought.

The BBC's senior leadership resigning en masse over one dodgy edit in one programme, simply because the right wing press demands it, tells you everything you need to know about where the power really lies in that relationship

Nope, itโ€™s full of Toryโ€™s at the top and the political programmes all seem to platform Farage who has no good reason to be there. They need to a good clear out.

FFS #Amazon, why canโ€™t I โ€˜family shareโ€™ my kindle books on an iPad to my kids in my โ€˜Amazon familyโ€™?

Why did you pull the Amazon Kids app and make it impossible to sign into the kindle app as a kid??

I recall the orange convicted felon once saying people would stand in long lines begging for food if Kamala Harris became President.

Now in 2025 people are seen in Cleveland and other cities standing in long lines for food due to his cruelty.

Endless projection. I hate him.

Both poppies look nice and you look lovely and smart. GBeebies will never grow up plus they are total hypocrites anyway covering Remembrance Sunday then stirring up hate with their next breath.

Folks this is not a candid shot of the man at 11PM on a weekend, this is what he was doing while sitting in the middle of an internationally broadcast major press conference in the Oval Office

He is cooked, get him out of there ASAPโ€”before we find ourselves in the midst of a second Great Depression

Since we've only now discovered how many prisoners escaped under the previous government, we have to ask what else has been covered up.

Ffs SkyNews has footage of the prisoner released in error being arrested, it's news he's back in custody but do we really need footage of him being arrested. The Tories released 672 prisoners in error between March 2013-March 2023, was there footage of them all being taken into custody.

But make this make sense:

He can borrow the audiobook from the library on his account but the physical books are age restricted to 14+. He is 12. So I got them out on my ticket!

Also film in cinema was 12, dvd was 12, streaming on Prime is a 15. Good job we had the dvd!
