Sadly no - despite a reminder, by the time I tried everything was gone except premium packages.

I mean, I love Krafwerk but, close to £200? Hoping they might add more dates....

Mother fucker! The House has been in session only 15 days since July.

Its October!

GOP are loser slackers! Imagine if you only showed up to your job 15 days in 4 months.
They get 175k a year in salary.

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

Greens growing. Reform ratttled.

PS - I changed my name back to my family's original Jewish name because I'm proud of being Jewish. If Tice think that makes me a weirdo, I think that makes him an antisemite.

Join.greenparty.org.uk

Tice "green party leader Zack Polanski is a weirdo. Changed his name, claimed hypnosis could increase women's breast size, thinks me should compete in women's sport, thinks women can have a penis. Other than that he's fine. Vote Green. Get weirdo."

Wait...doesn't the US have export controls on Cuba? North Korea? Iran?

If China could only apply those controls to Temu we would all be very happy.

I mean, nominations closed in January (at a point when he could have ended the conflict overnight - remember? ). He gets an initial ceasefire on transfer deadline day and wants the Nobel Peace Prize?

Why is he so obsessed about it anyway?

It’s about time some red state governors said this!

Tweet from Home of the Brave: “Oklahoma’s Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt criticizes Trump for sending the Texas National Guard to Illinois,” followed by Stitt’s quote about states’ rights and federalism. Below is a photo of Stitt sitting in his office with an American flag behind him.

Federal agents aren’t trying to keep the peace. They want violence to escalate so that Trump can declare martial law.

They shot a reverend in the head with pepper balls while he was praying in front of an ICE facility. If that doesn’t tell you where we are as a country, nothing will.

The Speaker of the House is telling the Fox News audience that a peaceful demonstration by Americans on the National Mall will actually be a gathering of organizations the administration has designated as violent terrorists.

Seems bad?

Mike Johnson: "We're so angry about it. I mean, I'm a very patient guy, but I've had it with these people. The theory we have right now -- they have a hate America rally that's scheduled for October 18 on the National Mall. It's the pro-Hamas wing and antifa people ... "

On #BBCQT - Fiona Bruce said that the audience and public didn't want to press Reform UK on their dodgy links to Russia.

I disagree.

RT if you agree it's in the public interest for Reform to explain about their links to Russian money and bribery!

Did you read the article?

Who will design and run the digital ID scheme? (not in manifesto)?

O&G licence commitments made this week - I missed it. But changes to taxes.

Federated data platform - my mistake.

Non-union donations to Labour the highest they've ever been.

Trinovantian @emceegeegee.bsky.social · 21h

It's voting, not polling, that counts. We'll see.

And in a FPTP system anything can happen. I can't see the current Labour government winning a second term, so if you're right about the Greens, get ready for your fascist overlords.

Interesting how we never hear about the countless other MPs, particularly those that are women and non-white, who suffer abuse, threats of rape and murder, week in, week out (from people who are not immigrants).
