I received my Xm*s cards very promptly from @gailmyerscough.co.uk today. Fab designs and excellent quality, as always. I recommend. Thanks, Gail!

I've lived in England for 21 years. I now despair for its future. I currently live next door to a synagogue. I feel very, very sad today.

I recommend this documentary: www.itv.com/watch/vanish... Extraordinary footage and oral testimony about this shameful event, presented intelligently and sensitively. #CofiwchDryweryn

The even more unbelievable crime fact (which I learned relatively recently) is that burglary has fallen by more than 90% since the 1990s.

Did anyone notice? Nope. Does anyone believe it? Nope. But is is true? It is!

Of course it's too early...but I've just pre-ordered cards from Gail. I recommend. Always excellent quality, and classy, distinctive designs.

Well said, Mia:

Interesting. I was generally happy then.

FOR WEDNESDAY:

Here is the route of the march against Trump & the far right

GATHER: 2pm Portland Place (BBC)
MARCH: at 3pm
RALLY: 5pm at Parliament Square!!

Can I just say, from the bottom of my heart, and because I think it's important right now, fuck racists?

I've just signed this. Kudos to the @libdems.org.uk for being active on this important issue: www.libdems.org.uk/bbc

I’ve never felt so disheartened. My small business means everything to me and I want to keep going.
Please have a look at my website. Buy things, commission me or repost.

Thank you.

There will be a national conspiracy theory alert at 3pm this afternoon.

Lucy Connolly, a woman who admitted inciting racial hatred after using social media to post about setting fire to hotels housing asylum seekers is to speak at the Reform UK Conference today. That spells out all you need to know about Reform UK and their dangerous, hateful agenda.

Since this is apparently a resigning matter, I’ll just leave this here…

1/2 Kemi Badenoch seems to have invented a scholarship for “pre-medicine” (a non-existent course) at Stanford. Apparently the prestigious US university somehow became aware of this exceptional 16 year old in Nigeria and reached out to her, unprecedentedly waiving the application process.

'legitimate cardboard'

If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

In trying to emulate the Far Right the Starmer Labour Party will lose the liberal and leftish voters that helped win it the 2024 election and fail to gain the right-wing voters that didn't vote for it then and never will in future

Too many folk overthinking this. "Mass deportations are an abhorrence that a civilised country should not countenance".

That's all.

No need for logistical advice, the spirit of Churchill, or picking your favourite previous action down the slippery slope.

I really wonder what would need to happen to disrupt the British media‘s current obsession with immigrants.
I am serious. What would it take to talk about something else? Putin invading a few more countries? Another Prime Minister being hounded out of office? Global economic collapse? A tidal wave?

Nice one, John:

Can someone please explain why it is that too many politicians only seem to want the votes of the prejudiced and the ignorant? To the extent that they are actively repelling anyone capable of rational thought and decency. Why the pathetic need to appease the bigot vote, at everyone else’s expense?

I would choose The Car Makers. I still love original Minis.

I feel a bit like Robert Redford must have felt as he watched Watergate unraveling. I hope my fellow Scots will find a way to externalise that feeling over the next couple of days in Edinburgh, Aberdeen and Ayrshire.
