living my best life in France

[Catherine Finch @CatFinch63]

Seems that people do care which books I like, who knew ? So I'll take the opportunity to mention a couple.
Starting with Shades of grey. The only thing wrong with this book is the wait for the sequel.

J K Rowling has just single handedly made public toilets a dangerous place for women to use, more than any trans women ever could.

Slow clap, JK...

Slow clap.

Gary Lineker was removed from all BBC activities because of his entirely reasonable political opinions expressed in his own time.

Sharon Davis should never work on television again.

“You called…and we came”

On the 77th anniversary of Windrush we remember the contribution and courage of a generation that helped to rebuild Britain.

Why would any nation, now, trust diplomacy?

Iran agreed to curb its nuclear programme in 2015 – Trump wrecked the deal in 2018. Iran signed up to a round of talks, only to be bombed by Israel two days before. Iran agreed to negotiate with the European 3 – the US bombed them two days later.

[Jon Trickett MP @jon_trickett]

War!
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing.

[Yaroslava @strategywoman]

I guess that posts with war interest people more.

But I am determined to show you that Ukraine is more than the war:
rich history, art, culture and fantastic nature.

I will mop the floor with anyone on the Iran nuclear deal/JCPOA, this is one of the topics I am the most well-versed in and spent years covering on the ground. There is no weapons program.

Honestly beyond scandalous watching the media repeat Trump's claims, unchallenged, that Trump had "given" Iran 60 days (when Iran had given him and the US 7 years after he ripped up JCPOA) ; or that Iran was "weeks" away from building a nuke.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

The illegal attacks on Iran by the United States are reckless beyond belief — and threaten the safety of humankind around the world.

Diplomacy was possible. Instead, a catastrophic war has been ignited by the aggression of two nuclear states, Israel and the United States.

Meanwhile, the genocide in Gaza continues unabated with the shameful military support of our own government.

The last Labour government made the mistake of following the US into a devastating war. Human beings abroad paid the price.

This Labour government needs to learn the lessons of the past, otherwise it will be remembered for the more dangerous world it has helped to create.

I echo the call made by the UN Secretary-General: “There is no military solution. The only path forward is diplomacy. The only hope is peace.”

@Simone_Biles Eff that moon faced grifter bully!

[Catherine Finch @CatFinch63]

As a woman I agree

[ᒪᗩᑎE @lanechanged]

As a woman, i am stating unequivocally that i feel no threat from the trans community.

Quit using the phrase *protect women* as the bullshit excuse for your hateful transphobia.

DORSET: Chef, James Higginson, 20, who brutally killed 2 of his now-ex girlfriend's cats amid a campaign of violence against her, has walked free.

Recorder Patrick Mason said he was an "immature 18YO at the time" & "locking him up would cause distress to his family."

FOR SHAME

[Jenny Jones @GreenJennyJones]

I don't often say this, but well done @labour!
A 200 year old law penalising the absolute poorest, most vulnerable in society, is finally scrapped. https://t.co/82M5umNHml

[Martin Brundle OBE @MBrundleF1]

Just watching the news. I’ve circulated the world non-stop for over 40 years and met people I like, admire, trust, respect, adore, and love. Others I dislike, mistrust, and don’t respect. Gender, nationality, ethnicity, religion, or sexuality, or for that matter education and profession, are never the defining factor either way. We are endlessly privileged and responsible to live on the only known inhabited planet of billions in the endless galaxies, why do we threaten, hurt, maim, and kill each other? Live and let live I would say, realising it’s totally wishful thinking.

[Sarah @timetoshine1234]

Nigel Farage wants to leave the ECHR to make YOU considerably poorer.

No state pension.
No minimum wage.
No state benefits.
No maternity pay.
No holiday pay.
No sick pay.

And ultimately, no NHS.

Nigel Farage is not on your side.

Stop being thick and wake-up!

[Fr Paul @revpaulwhite]

How sad do you have to be to think that life will get better if only we could be a bit nastier to minorities and foreigners...

[Cara Lisette @CaraLisette]

I’m not going to reshare the video of the woman filmed in the train station without her consent but I can categorically say that I would be much happier sharing a space with a trans woman than a t*rf who is going to film me if I don’t meet their femininity standards.

[Marina Purkiss @MarinaPurkiss]

I get it...

Labour have let you down

You're desperate for change

Do you really think someone who wants to make you pay for healthcare, reduce workers' rights, keep fire & rehire & shills for the rich is going to bring the change you need?

Remember what he did to our fishers.
