I relaunched my online workshops last night after my breakdown but no takers yet. They used to be the majority of my income so it is scary tbh.
I've taught creative & mental health classes on BBC Countryfile, @V_and_A, the Bronte Parsonage & even Highgrove. I've been advised to go on PIP (my autism,ADHD & PMDD together are disabling & my breakdown means my income's a quarter of what it was) but I really don't want to do that.
If you'd like to learn to draw plants & how creative activity alters our brain biochemistry to improve mental health my 29th August class is here👇
A RT would really really help, thankyou🌿: https://t.co/UFgNLxO8ey

Alastair Campbell, "Nigel Farage is a consequential figure in British politics, I doubt Brexit would have happened without him"

"History will say the three key drivers of Brexit: David Cameron who called the referendum, Boris Johnson who led one of the campaigns and Nigel Farage who laid the ground for it"

"Camerons gone, Johnsons gone, and the fact that some people are talking about Nigel Farage becoming the next prime minister, what does that say about our politics?"

"The guy who has helped to inflict the very thing, Brexit, that has weakened our economy, weakened our standing in the world, that we think he should be prime minister?

"It's a form of madness"

"The populism and lies of the Brexit campaigners"

"Brexit was all about taking back control. Partly because we lost our membership of the European Union and so the Dublin Convention, we've lost control"

"Partly because so many Europeans left Britain, went back, doctors, nurses, and carers, we then had the Boris wave of immigration, people from other countries, particularly India, Bangladesh"

"We also have people from Ukraine and Hong Kong which I think the public are more willing to accept"

"The truth is, we have to get the balance right between an aging population, where we're going to need immigrants to do the jobs that British people don't want to do, and we need high skill immigrants"

"Charlatans like Farage are always going to make immigration the issue because they haven't got much else to say about anything else"

"Andy Burnham is very pro European, in his heart he knows Brexit is a disaster, knows that we have to somehow fix it"

"I think it will be a much closer relationship with the European Union"

I had 3-4 weeks off Twitter with autistic burnout recently & my engagement is right down (also due to standing up to a vile group of trolls on here-they reported me lots, restricting my reach). If you see this photo it would be so ace if you could RT it or drop me a quick hello if you have a moment, both of which help an account get back on track. I also hope these little violas ping some floral dopamine in your meat computer & give you a small lift 🌿

Scandals don't come much bigger than wasting £10bn of £15bn spent on unusable PPE during Covid.

The Tory VIP lane for donors, cronies and chums was a rip-off door.

Hunt them down and grab back the £10bn no matter whatever that costs.

Whoever came up with this deserves a standing ovation. 😂😂😂
“Stop the bungs” with Count Binface standing on the beach while Nigel Farage rows away in a boat full of cash… satire doesn’t get much better than this.

[Tim Walker @ThatTimWalker]

Very cool, entertaining and with high production values: if I were @Nigel_Farage, I’d consider dipping into that £5 million to try to get out a video that can compare to it.

[Martin Davies 🇬🇧 🇫🇷 🇪🇺 🇨🇦 @martindvz]

They call it GB News to make it sound patriotic.

It’s owned by Australians.

It’s based in the Dubai tax haven

It’s managed by New Zealanders.

The only British bit are the fools watching.

[Count Binface @CountBinface]

Labour, Tories, Lib Dems and Greens: I demand you stand down in Clacton. I will be a unity candidate and pledge to build at least one affordable house.

Nigel Farage says he wants The People versus the Establishment. So be it.

Leave him to me.

[Kevin Schofield @KevinASchofield]

Nick Robinson to Zia Yusuf: "You say this is all about standing up to the establishment.
"You're a multi-millionaire. You made your money selling luxury helicopter charters and rare wines to the super-wealthy.
"Nigel Farage is a public schoolboy, a former commodities trader who gets £5m gifts from his friends and lives in a 5-storey house next to Buckingham Palace courtesy of a man convicted of fraud.
"Do you really think you are in a position at Reform UK to claim not to be part of the super-wealthy, self-serving establishment?"

[Supertanskiii @supertanskiii]

“Most physically attacked politician”

Jo Cox was stabbed and shot because of your descent into hateful and divisive politics, you despicable cunt.

Been saying this all day

Share - it needs to happen

[KoH @pinguforest]

Wait till these idiots find out the Tories cut the navy by 25%, shrunk the army from 130,000 to 72,000, put the aircraft carriers to sea with no planes, sold the Harriers to the US, sold off the AWACs and spent £4bn on tanks that don’t work.

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

Apparently @elonmusk finds it embarrassing that his own Grok Baby called him the number one source of misinformation on X

So please don’t share this to far and wide 🙏

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

Which of these rights don’t you want Bobby?

Or perhaps more appropriately, which of these rights do you not want us to have?

[Peter Stefanovic @PeterStefanovi2]

You’re daily reminder Nigel Farage wants to

- leave the ECHR

- repeal the Equality Act

- Strip back workers rights

- Lift restrictions on exploitative zero-hours contracts

- repeal the Renters’ Rights Act which abolishes “no fault evictions”

PLEASE DON’T FALL FOR IT

[Carole Cadwalladr @carolecadwalla]

Why did Boris Johnson accept a £1m gift from the same billionaire who gave Farage £5m?

What did Nigel Farage AND Boris Johnson do for the biggest lump sums of cash ever given to British politicians?

So glad to see this trending. #HarborneReceipts

And follow @thenerve_news

[Carole Cadwalladr @carolecadwalla]

NEW: Boris Johnson failed to declare to parliament a gift of private jet flights from the same cryptobillionaire, Christopher Harborne who gave £5m to Nigel Farage, leaked documents reveal.

The catastrophic reality of Brexit has exposed the entire project as a historical scam pushed by charlatans and traitors, on behalf of Moscow.

It has directly undermined European security and weakened the West to the absolute delight of Moscow, Beijing, and Washington DC.

The separation of the United Kingdom from the European continent has made both entities far more vulnerable to external threats. At a time when global stability requires absolute cohesion, this decision introduced needless fragmentation.

The geopolitical rewards of this blunder flow straight to Washington DC, Beijing, and Moscow. Russia and China look at a fractured Europe and see a continent that is much easier to manipulate, exploit, and destabilize because one of its strongest powers is isolated from its neighbors. The US sees the same, especially under Trump.

Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage will forever carry this betrayal as their core legacy. The United Kingdom must eventually rejoin the European Union to reclaim its economic sanity and strategic defense, a move that is becoming increasingly obvious to everyone
