Wonderful actors in this! Thank you for posting :) Some of my favourites! I met Sir John Mills in the lift where I was working when a student! He was with his family. A really wonderful family as well :)

It is all so horrific Mark.

Can't believe we are living through this!

We have similar Robert only the homes are either owned by those who have several properties or they are landlords, often charging phenomenally high fees for renting!

@joncooper-us.bsky.social Dear Jon We really feel for you all from this side! I cannot imagine how terrible it must be 2 b having 2 live under such circumstances! We thought Brexit was bad enough our side but Trump is a thousand times worse Praying for a miracle so that no one has to suffer anymore.

It’s ok to change your mind when you realize you were wrong.

Terrible isn't it George!

Labour seem to be doing the same thing! Yes, it always seems to be those who have very little or are helpless! What a terrible way to treat people isn't it.

Actually the other aspect is punishing those who are disabled! I found that beneath the pale! Nobody asks to be disabled or have a disability. I found it inhumane and I will always stick up for those who have no choice.

I had hope even though I did not vote for Labour. I somehow had a bit of hope as a welcome break from the Conservatives but, these days I become more and more disillusioned unfortunately! Not due to anything other than the fact that Keir Starmer has a golden opportunity to rectify Brexit mess.

I like how they gave the Nobel Prize to someone fighting for democracy in Venezuela, instead of someone sinking fishing boats off their coast.

Happy Nobel Peace Prize day to all who celebrate! 🕊️

In a brilliant and well deserved move, an (1) antifa (2) Latina (3) woman, María Corina Machado, wins for her work promoting democratic rights in Venezuela.

Look Mimi that is totally untrue!

Leaving this now Mimi! I will not throw any insults at you. Just wish you well.

All the best! I was really insulted when you said I do not know what is going on! Wow!

Carla Martin/Carlabela1 @carlabela1.bsky.social · 9h

Had enough Mimi!

All the best to you.

Carla Martin/Carlabela1 @carlabela1.bsky.social · 9h

No you missed what he said Mimi on another occasion! Please I am tired of this now!

Carla Martin/Carlabela1 @carlabela1.bsky.social · 9h

It really is isn't it.

Carla Martin/Carlabela1 @carlabela1.bsky.social · 9h

Yes, he is a nice person. He was once a Liberal Democrat! :) Yes, fabulous.

Carla Martin/Carlabela1 @carlabela1.bsky.social · 9h

Look Mimi we are not going to agree on this and so lets park it for now!

Carla Martin/Carlabela1 @carlabela1.bsky.social · 9h

It jolly well isn't! Well why did he stand up and say that he wasn't interested in freedom of movement the single market or the customs union! He said it way before he became Prime Minister! It was a stupid thing to say then if he did not mean it! You must have missed it but hand on heart he said it

Carla Martin/Carlabela1 @carlabela1.bsky.social · 9h

Yes, I so agree with you. It is a ridiculous thing to say isn't it as it prolongs the agony! Yes, I so agree with you. Absolutely and the EU know the true facts and were desperate for us all.

Carla Martin/Carlabela1 @carlabela1.bsky.social · 9h

Yes, it is ridiculous isn't it Colin! Starmer was never interested in rejoining in the first place! He said he is not interested in freedom of movement which shocked me.

Carla Martin/Carlabela1 @carlabela1.bsky.social · 9h

I listen to a person who knows how politics works! I am going to leave this conversation now though Mimi! I don't really want to be told that I am not aware of where we stand! I am absolutely terrified about the future but the more Starmer panders to Farage supporters the worse it will be.

Carla Martin/Carlabela1 @carlabela1.bsky.social · 9h

Of course I do Mimi! I am not an idiot!

Carla Martin/Carlabela1 @carlabela1.bsky.social · 9h

It isn't that Mimi he basically doesn't like the benefits we had with the EU don't ask me why but he has stated that. Way before he became Prime Minister! I have had enough of him and the government is floundering about not knowing which way to go imo! They could easily tax the billionaires!

Carla Martin/Carlabela1 @carlabela1.bsky.social · 9h

No he said he doesn't like freedom of movement or anything that goes with rejoining! I know you like him but I have had enough of him and what I am saying it the whole truth and nothing but the truth!
