Just came on in the pub 👍🏻

Gonnae go home and cook while drinking beer. My favourite pastime. Soundtracked by 80s hair metal.

I applied for a job in Glasgow because of this. It's becoming harder and harder to see a future here.

I agree. However, I've gotten two job interviews by having ChatGpt write my cover letter based on my CV and the job description.

Pub. Mismatched glassware. Do we care? I don't. I've changed. #GrowthMindset

A can of Burnt Mill Diamond Lake west coast pale ale decanted into a Yonder Brewing "chubby" glass, enjoyed at a rare outpost of civilisation in Westcliff-on-Sea, the West Road Tap.

This is old; I'd imagine Labour has exited, stage right.

Beer | Celtic | Socialism @petermacciarrai.bsky.social · 1d

Still applies.

I see - thanks for clarifying that 👍🏻

Regarding licensing hours, didn't the Blair government bring in 24-hour licencing? I must confess to not having my finger on the pulse in this area.

I've been a fan for years and this was on our wedding playlist, but unfortunately he's questionable on Palestine.

Huge congratulations to Maria Corina Machado who has won the Nobel Imperialism Prize for steadfastly supporting Israel's genocide and calling on the US to invade her own country so she can be installed as puppet leader while Trump takes Venezuela's oil ♥️

The Guardian joins the chorus pretending a Gaza peace deal was possible because of Trump's "juggernaut" personality.

The truth: without US weapons, Israel would have been unable to wreck Gaza and commit a genocide.

The US could have stopped this from day one, had it wished to.

Yet more whinging from the self-preservation elite. A mere 7% of the UK population go to private schools & refuse to 'integrate' with the remaining 93%.

Yet this minority comprise the vast majority of senior journalists & media, judiciary, senior legal profession & more. Very off-putting.

🧵 Am I surprised they gave Maria Corina Machado the Nobel Peace Prize? No. Does she deserve it? Also, no. There’s a reason she was barred from running for office in Venezuela: multiple violent coup attempts and calling of foreign governments, like Israel, to invade Venezuela.

I applied for a job in Glasgow on a whim (there may also have been beer taken) and I've gone and gotten an interview 😬

Astonishing advance by the Greens, astonishing implosion of Labour. When will Starmer's government get the message that it is destroying its base with deeply unpopular, rightwing policies?

By chasing Reform, it legitimises the far right while delegitimising itself.

Zack Polanski @zackpolanski.bsky.social · 3d

Latest poll puts Greens just two points behind Labour. When I said we weren't here to be disappointed in Labour but to replace them, I meant it.

Join us and let's make hope normal again.

Poll from find out now showing greens on 15 and labour and Tories on 17. Reform on 32.
