I'm here for the dog pictures and pet anecdotes.
Pinned
I was enjoying threads up to this point 😕 I hope I can find my people here:
- dog lovers
- left-wing
- UK-based (Yorkshire?)
- progressive/liberal Christians who trust science
- people who rescue dogs and post lots of photos of them
- readers
- crafters
- linguists
- foodies
- dogs, dogs, dogs

Some Tories, after 14 years in power…

…are saying nothing now works in the UK.

So they’re joining Reform, so they can complain about the Tory record - and you can vote them right back in, in a few years’ time, under new anti-Tory branding.

I just signed the petition to to demand the Government tax the super rich to rebuild our NHS, schools, and other public services. Will you sign too? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ta...
Tax the super rich to stop cuts to public services
Across the UK, living standards are falling and millions live in poverty, while the cost of living crisis has made affording the basics difficult. Public services we all rely on - our hospitals, schoo...

Can we PLEASE have a reset on how foreign workers are viewed in the UK?

This insistence of adopting a right wing framing, even by Labour, is insane

This is Winston Churchill visiting Washington DC to request assistance in the war against Germany. Notice he is wearing a "zip suit" and not a traditional suit. This was to honor the British troops--the same reason Zelensky dresses the way he does.

Explanation from @peterstefanovic.bsky.social that former Musk favourite Farage is talking “bollocks” when he claims we need to leave the ECHR to take back control of our borders.

Leaving would remove rights already used to protect British citizens from bad decisions by its own government.
With Nigel Farage and Reform UK again calling for the UK to leave the European Convention on Human Rights here is a reminder of why joining Russia and Belarus as the only European countries outside the ECHR is a very very very bad idea

We can't let British democracy turn into a plaything for overseas billionaires with short attention spans.

At PMQs, I urged the Prime Minister to work with us to make sure power always sits with the voters, not wealthy foreign oligarchs.
