Listening to @mrjamesob.bsky.social on his discussion of why Trump is doing what he is, why the world is constantly moving to the right. Why authoritarianism is on the rise.

I have concluded that the reason lies in the unstoppable trends of society.

That will work won't it............🙄🙄🙄
The Reform Party's plan to raise the tax threshold would cost around £80bn… with no way to fund it. A vote for Reform is a vote for fake economics.

Nice visit to Bempton and Flamborough yesterday. I originally intended to focus on puffins but ended up concentrating on the amazing Gannets with just a couple of puffins and one amazing kestrel.

RABID!

There is no other way to describe the behaviour of the majority of the press and media. ( including the BBC).

This is not news. This is not reporting. This is not a free press.

This is rabid, anti EU propaganda.

Are you taken in by it?

Freedom of movement is NOT a swearword.

It was precious.

And brexit stole it from the british people.
May 19, 2025 at 12:57 PM
Listening to the press conference with the EU.

I am sickened by the unrelenting aggressive, pro brexit nature of the questioning from the press.

It is clear they continue with the pro brexit, anti EU rhetoric which has been so damaging to our country.

Sickening and disgusting. Even the BBC.
May 19, 2025 at 12:23 PM
Toxic, toxic, toxic!

The brexit promoting right wing media has crippled the UK.

Now they brand any attempt at recovery as "betrayal".

This is not a "free press", this is ultra right wing propaganda aimed at keeping you impoverished, subservient and servile.

Are you taken in?

Sickening...

The state of Israel is currently starving children to death as well as killing and maiming them in vast numbers.

Remember the image of the dismembered dead child hanging from a wall after Israel blew her up.

And yet..

They take part in a feckin song contest.

Where is our humanity?

In the late 21st century the gap between those who have wealth and power, and those who have nothing, has reached gargantuan proportions.

Can a fightback succeed against those with sophisticated weapons, including nuclear?

Can anything save the world from self destruction?

Unstoppable and accelerating climate change, the continued concentration of wealth and power into fewer hands, a shift to right-wing politics, the growing number of armed conflicts, and the rise of AI and robotics - where is this going to lead us in 50 years, in 500 years?

Never mind all the "no thank you" replies from #literaryagents and #publishers.

When you've self published, and your second reader, who you do not know, sends you a message saying.

"Really enjoying the book, can't put it down"

It makes it all worthwhile.

is to implement repugnant, right wing, anti immigration policies?

Democracy is dying!

Drowned by a sea in FB Karens and Kevins for whom truth is unimportant, and who are being exploited by a series of malign actors.

To save democracy we must answer this...

Which is more important, your freedom to act or my freedom to be free of oppression?

Nadya, our heroine from the 25th century, reads the journal left by her distant ancestor, Harry.

In it, he describes how the political and environmental trends of the early 21st century led to the collapse of western civilisation, the great flood and the rise of The Guardian.
