@stillhere_Bry@SBarrettBar I agree. It’s every man or woman for themselves in there. I hate their online too - too many subs and, until the recent update, a CR*P and v frustrating app😤
@MattCrivelli@SBarrettBar Same here. It’s quieter than the ‘cattle market’ Asda the other end of town - I pop into Sainsbury’s to grab a meal deal on my way in from work and am always relieved that it is a pretty peaceful experience. Couldn’t care less to be recorded at self-scan 🤷♂️
A woman in a burqa has never done me any harm. Women wearing burqas haven't told me lies to get me to vote for them. They haven't cost me money by mismanaging businesses. They haven't got drunk and spouted abuse. Men in suits did though; maybe we should ban suits?
My question clearly struck a nerve.
The faces of many Labour MPs told their own story – plenty of them know I was right.
If Starmer’s convictions change with the political weather, it’s no surprise that support for Labour is falling through the floor.
'My daughters, they work for the NHS. Most of the time they do night shifts.'
Mohammad Asif, a former Afghan refugee living in Scotland, hits back at Keir Starmer's demonisation of migrants and Enoch-Powell-style comments.
1. Here are my thoughts on the pros and cons of staying on this platform.
Pro: We were here long before Musk took it over. We built this.
Con: He has used our creation to help elect a far-right autocrat, and build his own grim political career.

This is Yuki. He was rescued from being euthanized after her owner dropped him off at a shelter for getting too big. DNA results show that he is 87.5% Gray Wolf, 8.6% Siberian husky, and 3.9% German shepherd
Emily Maitlis eviscerates Boris Johnson
"You started importing that Trump like behaviour into Britain when you were Prime Minister"
"His disregard for institutions. His disregard for the rule of law"
"His denialism.. Mirrored in your response to the Privileges Committee.. Your response to the Parliamentary Standards Committee.. Your Proroguing of Parliament"
"This is all Trump like behaviour"
Boris Johnson, "I disagree profoundly"
6 weeks ago today I found this little dog in a temple in Thailand.
She had once been a pet but was discarded to fend for herself. Her life was miserable.
We called her Butterscotch and you won’t believe how well she is doing today… (1/7) 🧵

I just got into my Uber and realized there was a drunk and unresponsive girl in the passenger seat. I asked the Uber driver about this and he said “she’s gonna sleep at my place”.
I said “oh hell no”.
@AnnieBeale1@TTRadioOfficial He needs so much more than they seem to want to offer. They’re so driven by Ofsted, it’s painful. The mini-bus visits when they’re ill for more than 2 days (government stipulation) makes my blood boil. Where’s the trust gone? Awful.
@AnnieBeale1@TTRadioOfficial I 100% agree Annie. I can’t wait till my youngest finishes year 11. Never thought I’d say that. College (round here at least) is so laid back in comparison. Kids need to ‘grow’ as individuals, not clones. They also need time and space to cope with the stress of puberty.
@scarficus@TTRadioOfficial 👏 A tracksuit with schl logo wld work. My youngest’s junior schl got the kids to design what they’d be comfy in and it was made for them! They now don’t have to lug PE kits in (at secondary level this wld especially help re changeovers/heavy bags. 1950s uniforms are unnecessary.
@AnnieBeale1@TTRadioOfficial I know it’s a while since this thread but it just popped up again on my feed. I am sooo fed up that what used to often be a fairly nice parent-schl relationship + a ‘family’ vibe in schl for the kids has descended into a joyless prison-like miserable experience. Trust now GONE
