Grew up in Durham City in the UK 🇬🇧Lived in London 1998-2002. Been living in Australia since 2002, and with my beautiful fiancée from Ireland 🇮🇪 since 2017
We had a epic Aurora display from Northern Ireland on Friday night. Here are a few pics I took from near Antrim and Lough Neagh #Auroraborealis#aurora#northernireland
Donald Trump received some honest feedback via a fortune cookie yesterday, at a special banquet held in his honour in China.

@BingusDing3032@KennyBoi95@Daemonised@bludgeonParagon@BugBench@Colteastwood Kenny thinks that disease quarantine to enter a country is tyranny 😂 the centre were built for future use learnt from Covid. Now with hantavirus we can quarantine them properly, just like the U.S. is doing also. The U.S. also built alligator alley to actually round people up in!
@shonkori@asymmetricinfo I wasn’t locked down though - life carried on and everything stayed open as normal where I live bar a few very minor inconveniences. We closed our borders to inbound travel to prepare properly - and we didn’t experience the mass death rates other countries experienced in 2020.
@adwepd293@libsoftiktok 1. No we did not have such camps.
2. Trump’s policies and actions have a direct impact on our country, as well as many countries around the world. So yes, we will criticise him because he’s an unhinged lunatic!
@Rocko172068@Suzierizzo1 My fiancée didn’t get it - it was not a crime to not get it 🤷♂️ there has never been such a thing as internment camps for vaccine refusers here in Australia 😂 you are one critical brain cell short of an amoeba 🦠
@FleabagMoroni@DoctorHuuu@ShoelessTX@NataniaMarshall I was never ‘locked’ in my home 😂 being arrested for criticising the govt is an odd claim to make, considering we have a constitutional right to criticise or disagree with our govt. I’ve just done my citizenship and it’s part of the fucking test material!
@Loveallwhites@FightWithMemes That was years ago and the council worker lost their job for that. These people just needed a camera to catch the act, not a gun, and were successful. Government workers in the US can also be corrupt, such as, for example, your current criminal president.
@markskirklandk9@ianfarrow@DefiantLs For example, I live in Queensland where the Human Rights Act 2019 protects my core rights (which includes my right to healthcare), along with other core rights. In Victoria they have a Charter of Rights (also an act). Overall Australia ranks very highly for human freedom.
@markskirklandk9@ianfarrow@DefiantLs There is no bill of rights (federally) in Australia. Instead they are protected via the constitution via implied rights, statutory rights or constitutional rights, and ratification of the ICCPR. At state constitutional level there is either a bill of rights or human rights act.
@markskirklandk9@ianfarrow@DefiantLs Having King Charles (King of Australia) as monarch is a choice as we can change who that is via the constitution as a constitutional monarchy. This has been taken to referendum. I’m perfectly fine with it personally. Having a monarch is purely ceremonial and costs $0.
@markskirklandk9@ianfarrow@DefiantLs Australia operates under a separation of powers too. You are correct in that we took the best aspects of Westminster and the U.S. system. We’re pretty comfortable with gun ownership not being a constitutional right, especially when looking at the U.S. gun crime epidemic.
@markskirklandk9@DefiantLs I know what a constitution is. Australia has one. EVERYTHING doesn’t need to be in it 🤷♂️ our government serves us here and enacts what we demand under our constitution. We’re all good here. I’d suggest you focus your energy on your own country that is falling apart right now.
@ca8851@wakeupusa If people had more guns we’d have even more mass shootings here. We’d need another 50 in 2025 alone in Australia for our 26 million population size just to match the U.S. rate of mass shootings in 2025 per capita, where more people do have guns. Your comment makes no sense!
@Mattcav88@ianfarrow@mkedgt2 As someone from the UK, The Sun is a sensationalist tabloid that often fabricates news stories and publishes opinionated gossip. There is no way the UK Govt would arrest someone for mean texts 😂 Her friend was a target of abuse and she reported her to cops as a civil matter.
@Mattcav88@ianfarrow@mkedgt2 If you’d even bother to look into this you’ll find this was a civil matter between her and her friend she sent messsges to. At a civil level anyone can take a matter to court, in this case her friend decided to carry out a civil matter 🤷♂️ Same thing can happen in the USA.
@DaneAlaska@ward433746@trumplicans2024 No they did not. I’ve seen those videos myself with my own eyes. And EVEN if they were not listening to orders, that does not warrant an execution. Then your Govt lies about them. A Gestapo armed to the teeth is terrorising your neighbourhoods: that is tyranny.
