Well I look forward to protesting about being able to protest. See: the whole of global protest history

Good joke going around on the Russian internet: Anyone who thinks the Covid vaccine will change their DNA should grab the chance.

McDonald’s worker in the US: $9/hr

McDonald’s worker in Denmark: $22/hr, 6 weeks of annual vacation, a union, 1 year of paid family leave, life insurance and pension.

America must join the rest of the industrialized world and ensure that our working class can live with dignity.

Absolutely disgusting. Removing access to this life changing medicine is not an option for @Hanseizuremum and Alfie.

As @Mikebarnes29 says -"Each variety of cannabis is subtly different and you can’t just swap a child from one product to another”

Words cannot express our anger

On the 75th anniversary of the end of World War II, we should savor and protect the Long Peace that has followed.

Give it a day: News just in, Ghislaine Maxell found having committed suicide via three rounds to the back of the head.

They're going to have to lock her in the Oval Office to keep her safe ... oh wait.

It wouldn't surprise me if 2020 saw a return of dinosaurs come Christmas.

@Cable_J Nature docs - all of them.

@FrancMoody Terra Firma for me - vocals stacked up super well, bassline loping along beneath it all. All of it. All of it!

[David Lammy @DavidLammy]

Today Priti Patel said "there's no such thing as dabbling in drugs, these are serious offences".

Last summer, 7 out of 11 Tory leadership hopefuls, including Boris Johnson, admitted they dabbled in drugs.

Why is it one rule for Cabinet members and another for my constituents?
