@danwootton As a Londoner born and bred I can attest to having been mugged both as a child and as an adult, having my house broken in to three times across a couple of years oh and having been flashed in the park as a kid by someone openly masturbating on a bridge - all by white males 1/2
@JohnCleese Oh it’s quite devastating to have inadvertently kept getting notifications on your posts as this has been akin to proving ‘never meet your heroes’. It does make me sad as I had somehow never imagined the possibility of your public voice issuing such narrow and dislikeable posts
@Keir_Starmer How oh how can the UK government stay silent on the atrocities and in fact allow these to be perpetrated with impunity - Shame on you Prime Minister and @UKLabour - your inaction from a place of power is complicity and by this our nation is shamed
@TheShannimal_@president_band Sadly not - was getting Leeds as gift for my son and now they are on the ticket sites for over a hundred quid :( had hoped to also get myself one for Norwich - glad you managed tho!!
*Three* seats for the Greens - they have won North Herefordshire. Hard to over-state how fascinating it is that they can now win in Tory-facing, non-urban areas.
@HannahAlOthman 2/2 this election does not compare even vaguely to- I can’t see the changes being exciting at all or even substantial- the manifesto is meh and lacking in social or moral fibre imho - but equally will be glad to see the back of the current gov.
@HannahAlOthman Far more exciting- even tho it was ‘New Labour’ there was optimism and the surety of change if w scoops get them in and get rid of the super NeoLiberalism Thatcherite legacy. We really did believe and feel it when we sang Things Can only Get Better. 1 of 2
@Sarahmi56698657 @teds302 He was great many years ago before he was ‘Charlie’ in an IRA type thing which I’m gonna have to go Google now because my brain won’t recall the name! But yes he’s an Irish actor ;)
Just a thought but was the result of the UK Eurovision vote because some
(Or possibly many?) chose not to watch, validate or fund this. Whilst twitter was quite filled with tweets that people had used their ‘maximum twenty’ vote for Israel.
