A bit of a blog post this afternoon exploring my relationship with the Honda H'ness/GB350. #motosky

valheruride.travel.blog/2025/10/12/w...

Why am I always critical of the Honda GB350?

I think a lot of folk think I dislike the Honda H’ness (a.k.a CB or GB350) but frankly absolutely nothing could be further from the truth at all. Since it’s unveiling in September 2020 …

@mrjamesob.bsky.social He has no idea what his policies are for Wales, only that they will be "different".

Wales is going to be *very* interesting next year.

Today's homework: look up Marxism, instead of jumping to the Farridge pub-talk conclusion that it's bad.

Far-right millionaire tells the workers they shouldn't vote in their own interests.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Surely, the reluctance to not protest is, in many cases, a response to the degree to which the Israeli far-right seeks to suppress all dissent within the UK and more widely?

War, by any other name.

Very few products are made with anything other than the lightest of wind in mind. Practically nothing is made to withstand UK and certainly not north west Wales winds. I always make my own such structures. None of them have been damaged in over 13 years.

More clear evidence of who these 'politicians' are working for. The whole system has been bought by the elite to do their bidding.

If parroting Farage's meddling with the ECHR is Starmer's taking the fight to Reform, then he is simply doing what he's always done.

Pathetic fascist control freak who has no idea about anything outside his highly-controlled environment.

The catch is: more nuclear, with no solution to the past 60 years of waste, let alone resources to fund it for thousands of years and the immorality of shunting today's problems onto infinite future generations. And more North sea drilling...

The very next day after claiming he's standing up to Farage, Starmer's first announcement is that he's...parroting a Reform policy of abandoning certain elements of our human rights.

Of course, none of this will affect how the state treats *you*, yet...

'The High Street' is just a long-dead myth, akin to
'British values' and other such nonsense. Consumers voted with their feet and sat down to click instead.

We can bring shops back, if we allow them to operate with very low or no business rates and so on. Even then, it won't be easy.

Classic Blair. He is now proposing himself as the Empire's Regent of Gaza. A war criminal himself, he demands a five year appointment to run the site of Israel's genocide on behalf of Donald Trump in the finest tradition of White Settler Colonial projects www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The former prime minister has been in high-level planning talks over the territory's future, the BBC understands.

Gill also used to operate a care home that used 'foreign' labour.

Hypocrite?

And he once had a family care home that employed...'foreign' workers.

Rank hypocrisy.
