Great result for the Lib Dems but terrible to see so many nutters voting for Farage.

Bluesky is collegial and interesting, the way Twitter used to be. Bonus: most people can spell.

Is this the world we live in now? A world where it’s seemingly OK to pick out the most ostracised people in society and abuse them for no good reason? It’s time folk started speaking out against this bigotry. JK Rowling really is on the wrong side of history here. Sad times.

True

The angry orange dictator promised to end the wars in Gaza & Ukraine with one phone call. 5 months later, the Ukraine war has escalated due to Trump's meddling & Netanyahu is still bombing Gaza. He is now crashing the global economy. Impeach this clown immediately.

He couldn’t even run a charity without breaking the law—Now he believes he’s in charge of the Supreme Court, Congress, our rights, and the U.S. justice system. Who’s going to stop him?!

Every single disabled person I know either works very hard, is a productive member of society, or would love to work but can’t because they’re incapacitated by an illness or disability.

For Labour to punish cancer sufferers, wheelchair users or severely mentally ill people is Nazi bullshit.

Britain has pretty low unemployment. In general, everyone who can work is working, and the ones who aren't working either can't work or aren't needed. So what the government is talking about here is performative punishment for not being needed. That's deeply inhuman and worthy of the far right.

What a sorry state of affairs!

Winning an election and morphing into the BNP!

Labour ‘to slash disability benefits for 1 million people’ as part of huge cuts Those who have difficulty washing, dressing or eating will be denied payments due to a tougher eligibility criteria

When I think of friends and family who would be quite literally lost without this support, Labour’s proposed disability benefits cuts are frankly beyond disgusting.

The people who will suffer the most from this trade war are the working class Americans who voted for Trump. Now that’s the definition of irony right there. Enjoy!

‘I feel utter anger’: From Canada to Europe, a movement to boycott US goods is spreading Tesla sales are falling and apps and online groups are springing up to help consumers choose non-US items

Labour politicians are going to start losing deposits in Scotland with this sort of nonsense.

Had thousands of followers on Twitter / X.

But then Elon Musk took over and I started to criticise Donald Trump and my account seems to have become restricted. Went from 1000s of views/reacts to basically being invisible.

Did this happen to anyone else? X is basically unusable now in my opinion.

So the UK Labour Party are about to cut benefits from the UK’s poorest and most vulnerable people - the disabled.

They’ve hammered the pensioners and now they’re going after people with disabilities.

Hate to say it but the Tories were way less cruel. The Labour Party has become the nasty party.

Tesla shares are down 41% so far this year. Who would have thought that nazi salutes don’t sell cars? 😳🫣

honestly wild to me that, at this late date, any ostensibly informed person would insist that we could ignore trump’s words as just bluster

The bill was ill thought out, and would have allowed young children to start transitioning with or without the parents consent. When the state becomes parent, this is a communist dictatorship. This bill actually harmed the trans community further.

Dudhope Castle, Dundee, Scotland.

You don’t necessarily have to smack your child but the threat of the wrath of your parents didn’t do my generation any harm. In fact, it’s the reason we are civilised members of society, and the reason that society is crumbling is lack of any discipline whatsoever. Teens run riot as a result.

How on earth does someone become President without knowing some geography? How on earth does someone so ill-mannered and uneducated become President? Only in America I suppose.

The Trump effect? The dollar has fallen sharply against the Euro, the Pound, Canadian Dollar, Australian Dollar, and more. The people of the USA are going to feel the effects of the Trumpcession very soon and I suspect that they won’t be very happy about it.

Far from gaining any sort of advantage from his hateful antics, Trump has managed to alienate the entire world, which will harm his economy, his people and his country immeasurably. The Republican Party and the American people will turn on him when the dollar starts to sink.

Could this be the beginning of the end for Reform? Their support of Trump could harm them massively given that most of their supporters don’t appear to be fans of the orange buffoon.

In 2.5 weeks, Donald Trump has gone from a +38 net favourability rating among Reform UK voters to -8

All Britons
Favourable: 15% (-7 from 16-17 Feb)
Unfavourable: 80% (+7)

Reform UK voters
Favourable: 45% (-21)
Unfavourable: 53% (+25)

Ah so you’re saying harassing innocent young women outside an abortion centre is not disgusting? You’re saying that it’s ok to do that? I think that tells us everything we need to know about you, Simon.

Boycott X

I'll keep posting this, until we get all of our allies off of X

Boycott everything musk.
If resistance was easy, we wouldn't be in the hole we are in now.

Repost, if you will.

#TheAlliedForces

Can you remind me where in my post I said you shouldn’t be allowed to protest? Exactly, I didn’t say that. Just said you’re a disgusting person if you’re harassing rape victims. Are you one of those people? Is this an admission?

I can believe in freedom of speech whilst also condemning nasty individuals who cause fear and alarm to rape victims outside abortion clinics.

Donald Trump is lying to you.
