'Hate is not welcome here' and 'Farage is Trump's Puppet', say anti-Reform protesters Reform UK was called “dangerous, divisive and racist” at the demonstration, organised by the Island branch of national campaign group Stand up to Racism.

Very nicely put.

Well, with serious condemnation like that, I shall obviously have to take you off my 'following' list.

And I wonder whether Trump is on that list too.

Unsung? You must be in want of a hearing test, badly.

Oh, that'll help the coral reefs and fish too. Good-ho.

Thank you, Sir, for speaking plain truth.

The arch with keystone, C19 I hazard. The flat-laid stones C15. I talk with exactly the same authority as Donald Trump would on such matters.

Keep going, BB. I'm confident you are making a difference, and I am in awe of your determination.

Polite gentlemen standing back for ladies know sentences such as: April first; May first; and June first.

More than half of Reform UK members believe non-white British citizens born abroad should be deported or encouraged to leave @survation.bsky.social

One in five also believed non-white citizens *whose parents were born in UK* should be forcibly removed/ encouraged to leave....

Welcome, Rob.

I see Cyprus 'will not rule out renogotiating its relationship with the UK', being very cross about our/US use of a base on their soil. That's not a plus for UK security. And Ellie, isn't that the bill that Starmer said he planned to introduce at the start of his reign? Plagiarist!

I doubt any 6 year old could ever deserve to be gunned down. Who would even think such a thing?

Often I come across posts containing 6 concepts in 3 lines that bemuse me. Usually I hit the 'Mute this account' option in something under one second but, Heidi, I have learned so much about architecture by deciphering your posts! Long may you continue.

USA has its cherished constitutional amendements. USA has the sacred untouchable NRA. In what sense does the USA "deserve" to exist without constant gun violence?

Starmer slid swiftly into the defence/NATO/nukes issue. Interesting. If Greens don't give careful attention to what is electable, that issue will IMO be lethal in national elections (as opposed to by-elections or council elections). Aims/goals are great, but robust short-term positions are needed.

I'm not sure about 'lose power' 'die in prison' etc. In his eyes he is 'exonerated'. He knows he has prosecution/judicial processes tied up, he's close to controlling elections too. I think he's just getting on with business. He knows what's right (again, in his eyes) and wants it done.

Are they really protesting or are they wanting to get into US jurisdiction to claim asylum, as in Saigon?

Ah, Glen: you think spelling in posts is a reliable guide to anything? But seriously, I think you are correct, and found your parenthesised point interesting. I like seeing posts from around the world - a nice break from often-tedious/repetitive USA posts - so thank you for yours.

You will never be able to stop talking about the files. Republicans have the levers of criminal responsibility firmly tied up, and are close to closing down your elections. I imagine that from Trump's POV, the files of historic misdeeds are distracting many from watching his current misdeeds.

So this is Australia? I was puzzled at first, trying to work out 'slug Richardson' in context of the UK Greens. I think I'll suggest to the Bluesky boffins that some means of routinely giving geographical context to posts is worth considering. Maybe I should start mine with a UK flag in future.

No more illegal wars. Introduce a prevention of military intervention act and put human rights at the heart of foreign policy. Review all UK arms sales and make us a force for international peace and justice.

The majority of people in this country do not want us to be involved in this war.

Keir Starmer of a few years ago wouldn't have supported this war.

The only reason he does now is he will do anything Donald Trump wants - and it makes us all less safe.

How sad that there is in these times space, and even the need, for straightforward statements like this. Thank you, Mrs B.

Ditto

ChatGPT found me comparable UK figures for the first two. In summary:
• ~15–18 % of UK adults have reading skills typically associated with under-12 reading age levels.
• ~18 % of adults are classified as having very low literacy proficiency (functionally illiterate for everyday life and jobs).

Yr un peth i chi. That's from Google Translate I regret: dw i'n dysgau cymraeg but I am making slow progress.

One of those photos that just makes me want to be there, coat and all. Thank you, Nero.
