I somewhat understand ( not agree) with Starmer's diplomacy with Trump. But he should start calling out Farage's BS in no uncertain terms.

It's not just that he'd be an catastrophic PM, but that his MPs would have absolutely no clue about governance or much else.

Misogyny and classism looming large.

Starmer must spend his weekends pulling splinters out of his arse.

Not a bad spot for teachers pre rentree but feel someteam building activities may appear 😐

What? Rayner not allowed a holiday now?

I feel the same. Most of my feed is positive anti racist, anti flagshaggers , anti Farage etc but its still Farage.

Thanks. I've never been to that village, just looked it up and it looks delightful.

Beautiful spot. Don't recognise the church though.

The students at my school (France) don't wear uniforms. That doesn't mean that we don't have police what they do wear. It also results in students finding their own 'uniforms'.

Never seen that one before, much better than the ones of his that I have actually seen.

How was Abraham Darby the Godfather of the IR? ( Coalbrookdale is great to visit)
Why was Birmingham called the workshop of the world?
How was Titus Salt a different type of industrialist?

As the late Queen's son, now King's brother, he seems far too much of a 'don't you know who I am' character to settle for obscurity outside the UK. Might change when he is just the king's uncle.

The flags look like painted over klansmen.

Hoping that this little piece of paper will change my life. 🤞Read an amazing personal blog entry last week by David Didau 👏👏👏which really resonated and triggered me to (try and ) do something. Had a real epiphany moment and woke up feeling more positive than I have all summer.

It didn't burn down until much later,1980s? When my teenage mardiness ensured I was left at home on sundays. This clip is amazing. 1970 it was a family home but also like a living museum. www.macearchive.org/films/manor-...
