I remember when people like her were only seen on TV when appearing in documentaries about the far right. Now MSM has 'normalised' them.

Here you go - sorry about the photo quality! One of these is your mum dancing with the actor Michael Gothard.

Hi, my dad, Russ, was living in Pimlico and apparently Jill was living with her parents in Norbury. He's got a chest full of photos like this, so next time I'm at his place, I'll take pics. He lives in Bristol now. A retired headteacher, still playing music. Not the trumpet so much, but the organ!

Hello @gidcoe.bsky.social, thought you might like to see these photos. My dad and your mum back when they were around 17 - 19! He reckons they were taken somewhere around Pimlico.

The world is 700% richer than in 1970 but the average person is only 8% richer.

Because the richest 0.01% are 4000% richer.

We are all being robbed every second of every day, and it doesn't matter how much profit or growth there is.

It will never reach you.

It’s a coup. It’s a strategic alliance with Putin. It’s the end of the post-war international order. It’s the triumph of lies over truth and in Putin’s case, evil over good. We are through the looking glass & we all now have to decide who we are & what we stand for

Opinion | The World’s Richest Men Take On the World’s Poorest Children I’ve seen U.S.A.I.D. operate around the world, and it’s not woke — it’s lifesaving.

The world's richest man is taking food and medicine from the world's poorest children

Yep - it's a just a "look over there" tactic, whilst Trump, Musk et al steal and pillage a country's wealth. Greenland and Panama are just further distractions to keep you looking the other way.

Guns. And the American healthcare system.

I killed a spider
Not a murderous brown recluse
Nor even a black widow
And if the truth were told this
Was only a small spider
Sort of papery spider
Who should have run
When I picked up the book
But she didn't
And she scared me
And I smashed her

I don't think
I'm allowed

To kill something

Because I am

Frightened.

If you are anti-Brexit and pro EU and want to find some extra followers.

RT and reply to this post and add each other.

No fun speaking to yourself.
