Annoying - and wrong. And why do they say 'misleading the public' or 'disinformation' when what is meant is telling lies?

It's simple. He's saying that autism is the 'fault' of women. Blame the mothers. Hideous.

So, many years ago, I moved into my house as a young woman and there was an elderly woman who lived next door. She had lived there many years at that point. That house has changed hands a few times and last week, a young couple moved in. I am now the elderly woman who lives next door. 🤷

So I wore this sticker all day this time nine years ago 🙁. I still have it, stuck on my mirror as a reminder. #Imin #brexitisadisaster #rejoin

Something rather lovely in these troubling times -wildflower meadows in local park and in arboretum. Much more stunning in real life. #nature #meadows #bees #itsthelittlethings #peace #stopwars

It's simple. Twunt is frightened of Poo tin and he's jealous of Zelenskyy.

Off I went again. Still slow, but I feel so lucky I can do what I do. #thisgirlcan

So I did another 10k race at the weekend! It was tough. It was hilly. It was hot. I was slow, but my claim to fame was that I was the OLDEST woman in the race. I can't believe I didn't get a prize for that 🤷. #deddington #fourfarmschallenge #thisgirlcan

I’m one of those dodgy immigrants who came here on a spouse visa and got indefinite leave to remain after 12 months.

The incalculable harm I have done to the UK includes dedicating my life to public service, educating thousands of British young people, and paying more tax than I’ll ever get back.

Willard White singing You'll never walk alone was definitely the highlight of a concert where I'd never heard of anyone else. Sublime. #VEday

Is The White House a Kindergarten? Is she doing a show and tell?

Just to be clear: 1) Ru is unable to take the whole country. That's not a concession. That's like me saying that as a concession I'll withdraw from the Olympics; 2) Ru hasn't agreed to stop the war; where's the proof??

There is only one way to end the war: put pressure on the Russians. The Trump people did the opposite: put pressure on Ukraine, and relieved pressure on Russia. They have made the war worse while talking of "peace."
