looking forward to this

Richard Tice and Nigel Farage caught NODDING at #PMQs when Keir Starmer says Reform UK would replace the principle of the NHS being free at the point of use, for everyone, with an insurance-based model.

Selling off our country's greatest achievement.

Jeez. Trump has signed an EO to withdraw the US from the UN Human Rights Council. Just think about that

You know what?

The EU & UK should put tariffs on US goods (from red states) in solidarity with Canada and Mexico.

Rather than watching others get bullied and waiting our turn - we should unify against this bullying until the bully drops that behaviour.

Donald Trump's inaugural address: "Drill baby, drill"

I don’t think I have ever heard a TV or radio presenter express any urgency or alarm over this.

READ THIS.

THEN READ IT AGAIN.

🔥 On Wednesday (Jan 15th) we have a debate in parliament on a Youth Mobility scheme.

Part 2! (Because Bluesky only lets you post 1m long videos!)

This will (hopefully) never cease to be staggering to everyone else in the world.

On the first day of Christmas my true love sent to me, a partridge in a pear tree.
Ate it.

Oh come on Labour - so depressing to hear Pat McFadden say UK has no plans for a youth mobility scheme with the EU. We have schemes with NZ, Australia, Canada, Japan, Iceland, Uruguay & more - only reason not to have one with EU is fear of right wing press. Such cowardice @bbclaurak.bsky.social

Perhaps tonight is a good time to remember that about 19% of NHS staff in England are non-British nationals. They are some of the most hardworking & caring members of our society. They look after our sick & vulnerable & during the pandemic risked their lives to keep us safe

A few facts about Labour's Budget and farmers.

I've see a lot of people complain that you can only upload 1min videos here.

I have a nice surprise for you. Bluesky handles YouTube videos beautifully (like the old days on Twitter + Facebook)

So here's me, filmed yesterday, talking about Trump and the new geopolitics... For 30mins. 😂
