Semi retired and enjoying more quality time with other half, friends and family. Okapi fan.

Whoever leads the country next must not lose sight of the urgent need to improve dementia care. For the nearly one million people living with #dementia and their families, the next Prime Minister must make better care and support a national priority.

The time for action is now.

10 years ago your children could just go and live and work anywhere in Europe. And you could retire there. Now they can’t and neither can you.

That’s freedom is it? Well done Brexit voters.

@DementiaUK I too have seen some friends withdraw following my husband's diagnosis. It is sad but on the other hand you do find out who the true friends are. It is high time people stopped writing off people living with dementia.

RFK Jr has cut Alzheimers research.

Alzheimers.

One of the most devastating, urgent and increasing health problems we face today.

He's not interested.

He's a nasty piece of work.

@george_rook @BBCMBuchanan @BBCHughPym @alzheimerssoc Even if it isn't illegal it is surely wrong for the Alzheimers Society to have no one on their board who is living with dementia. Not in line with charity governance guidance on board composition.

@LNER it is Friday afternoon and LNER has provided a 5 coach train from London to Leeds instead of the scheduled
9 coach one. All seat reservations meaningless and train overflowing. Gather this is regular occurrence. LNER should be ashamed.

If you allow Reform to take over… then take heed. 👇

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

Trump didn’t just pardon his followers who stormed the U.S. Capitol.

He’s now set them up for payments through a slush fund he created to reward his allies—out of your tax dollars.

You could not make this up.

Jenrick "where are we?"

"You're in a different party"

This is hilarious. What a put down.

🔺Excl: Reform UK leader Nigel Farage bought a £1.4 million property in cash shortly after receiving a £5 million personal gift from billionaire donor Christopher Harborne, according to property records seen by Sky News. Reform spox: "The offer and process for purchase of this property commenced before the gift".

@KevinASchofield @adamboultonTABB Exactly this.

This is a brilliant investigative piece on Farage, the dark millions behind him and the double standards of so much British journalism. Read and retweet! Nigel Farage pocketing £5m from a donor shows he’s unfit for power https://t.co/zHuVfDV8dh

[Reform Party UK Exposed 🇬🇧 @reformexposed]

Nigel Farage wants you to forget about the £5m.

Nigel Farage wants you to forget about his support for the Iran War.

Nigel Farage wants you to forget about Nathan Gill.

Nigel Farage wants you to forget his support for Trump, Orban, Le Pen and Milei.

Nigel Farage wants you to forget about his antisemitism.

Nigel Farage wants you to forget about DOGE failing.

Nigel Farage wants you to forget about the Clacton house.

Nigel Farage wants you to forget about the councillors dropping like flies.

Nigel Farage wants you to forget about the council leaders sacked for racism and ineptitude.

Nigel Farage wants you to forget about the racist candidates, the misogynists, anti-Muslims, the hypocritical and criminal Reform UK candidates.

Tell everyone, don’t let anyone forget.

Latest data on small boat arrivals from Home Office as of 1 May, 2026

1 January 2026 to 30 April 2026 = 6,416 people

That’s 42% down on same period in 2025

This is horrifying and barely getting media coverage.

Trump set April 30 as a deadline for the Zambian Govt. They must either accept Trump's new health funding agreement to have access to critical AIDS meds—and thus give the USA expanded access to its precious mineral resources like copper, lithium, and cobalt—or let its citizens die due to lack of vital AIDS medications.

Zambia is 98% Christian. Christians will die as a result of Trump's extortion. Notice how MAGA is wholly silent? Barbaric.

Afghanistan risks losing more than 25,000 women teachers and health workers by 2030 if restrictions on girls’ education and women’s employment continue, warns @UNICEF.

More than one million girls have already been denied their right to learn.

Whoever said this to @CamillaTominey is either mistaken or deliberately misleading a respected journalist to deter further scrutiny — we have see no legal complaint from Tice and stand by our reporting.

[Anthony Scaramucci @Scaramucci]

J.D. Vance is halfway through the woodchipper right now.

And if you don’t understand that the attack on the Pope was aimed directly at Vance — you don’t understand Donald Trump.

Vance converted to Catholicism. He’s writing a book about that conversion.

So Trump attacks the Pope. It destroys Vance.

He forces him onto Bret Baier’s show as a supplicant.

Kneeling to Trump instead of his own God.

That’s the message. I will emasculate you publicly and you will thank me for it.

Trump wants to be the last Republican president.

He wants to tell the party — you were nothing before me. You’re nothing after me.

He doesn’t want Rubio or Vance to succeed him.

He doesn’t want anyone taking credit for anything he built.

It’s one man’s show. Always has been.

If Vance had the nerve — the real move is to resign.

He won’t. He’s too ambitious and too cunning.
