I have a microscopic patch of this planet. It’s enough. Binned off the other place. So far this looks better. The natural world rules. Don’t argue with it.

Same day. Same plenary session. Same visit to Gill’s office. Same Farage, Same Gill, same wife of sanctioned pro Russian agent.

He met him at Downing St, 6 years before Epstein was convicted. The headline is pure click bait.

My town has just been awarded £2bn under the Pride in Place scheme and we’re launching the scheme. We get to say what it’s spent on. Bloody austerity sucks.

And why? More to the point.

Nicky @haystackgirl.bsky.social · 5h

The fact that you can write this drivel proves that we are not an authoritarian state. Jesus. Calm down. You sound like a loon.

Nicky @haystackgirl.bsky.social · 6h

Me too.

Nicky @haystackgirl.bsky.social · 6h

Same. Super efficient.

Nicky @haystackgirl.bsky.social · 7h

We know this do we? I’ve seen this all over this space and it seems nothing more than a rumour. To say ‘Reeves will say’ is baseless.

There is no way the EU will even consider us joining while Farage is still a free man.

Nicky @haystackgirl.bsky.social · 7h

We really do need to talk about these two men.

Well he seems to have failed so far on that score. Apart from TAX THE RICH! (like we need another 3 word slogan) I couldn’t tell you what Green Party policies are.

How does he manage.

Meanwhile, this beautiful bird is gone. Extinct. Forever. Never to be seen again. We did that. All of us. We are the enemy.

Lisa Smith @historybeagle.bsky.social · 1d

Such very sad news.

Dr Alex Bond @thelabandfield.bsky.social · 1d

Well, it's official. After our paper last year (onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....), the Slender-billed Curlew is officially declared Extinct today.

Scientists dream of describing new species, not writing their obituary and epitaph, knowing that they are gone forever #ornithology

That is tragic.

This Labour Government is stepping up to help those who need it most this winter.

They will provide immediate help for children and families in temporary accommodation, as we work to end homelessness for good.

It’s also shitty behaviour and unlawful when they keep sending you emails when you’ve unsubscribed.

Nicky @haystackgirl.bsky.social · 1d

10 grand!!! Oh dear. Looks like Gregg didn’t put some away for a rainy day. That wreaks of desperation.

Nicky @haystackgirl.bsky.social · 1d

Clicks innit

Nicky @haystackgirl.bsky.social · 1d

We knew what you meant.

You could also add Polanski to that list. Tell ‘em what they want to hear.

My MP regularly posts up what he’s been doing on the local Facebook group. Also by email. He does a lot. Needless to say he gets hammered by the local flag shaggers even when he announced he’d secured £2.1bn for our area in the Pride in Place scheme.

Nicky @haystackgirl.bsky.social · 1d

I’m sorry but on what planet did people actually believe he’d win it?

Nicky @haystackgirl.bsky.social · 1d

They are.
