So whatever you do - DO NOT SHARE THIS VIDEO

Concerned by the BBCs wall to wall coverage of this pathetic fall out between two toddlers...it shouldn't be eating up every headline and precious airtime while there are vital stories to report Gaza / Ukraine being just two!

I heard someone talking on the radio this morning about leaving #dog hair out for #birds to use in their nests

*If pets have been treated with certain flea treatments, this could kill the chicks*

Now seems a good time to repost this article 👇

It’s all beginning to feel a bit 1984. We’re in a battle against autocrats and oligarchs who are using money and misinformation to dismantle democracies. That’s why we’re looking for 1,984 new monthly supporters to make our biggest and boldest plans a reality (see link in bio)

Brexit strangled UK-EU trade, complicating supply chains with tariffs and red tape.

By rejecting the EU’s Pan-Euro-Mediterranean customs scheme, the UK missed opportunities to streamline trade and align regulations, harming businesses and the economy.
EU trade chief: Bloc may consider UK joining pan-Europe customs scheme
The UK joining the Pan-Euro-Mediterranean Convention is up for discussion in reset talks, says Maros Sefcovic.

Time for the British Government to pull all departmental accounts from Twitter.

In fact, time to ban Twitter in Britain altogether.

I think it’s very clear now that Trump & Musk want to aggressively divide, dominate and rule the Western world, rather than work with anyone respectfully of sovereignty.

From Canada to UK, Germany and Greenland/Denmark, the rest of the West need to pull together to resist.

Flu levels high still so do take care to try & reduce risk of exposure to this. If you have symptoms try and not mix with others. Vaccines do protect against severe infxn but uptake around 38% in clinically vulnerable groups, 33% in pregnant women, 40% in children aged 2-3 and 73% adults over 65..🧵
What is driving the winter flu crisis in England?
Is influenza causing more problems than normal this year and what else is behind pressures on the NHS?

Farage’s refusal to condemn Musk’s outrageous statements shows total unfitness for public office. But @bbclaurak.bsky.social fails to hold him to account & allows whole interview to be on his terms. No focus on Reform’s divisive policies & no effective challenge to his dangerous insinuations
