I doubt my leaving the artist formerly known as Twitter will make much impact but it feels good to do something if only for my own mental health. Find me on Threads or IG @marob23 or Bluesky @marob23.bluesky.social
Green peer @GreenJennyJones said: ‘Why get rid of the hereditary Peers but leave the 26 Bishops in place? … why should they vote on legislation? How does that make sense in a country where we are not even Christian any more and fewer than two out of 100 people regularly attend Church of England services?’
Holy shit this is INCREDIBLE work from @ByDonkeys. And bonus points for projecting the entire thing on @Tesla headquarters, effectively turning @elonmusk’s building’s most visible exterior side into a cinema screen to broadcast the tale of his corruption and political malfeasance
The lift coming out of that poignant #blackout was just incredible.
@chrismccausland is an inspiration, challenging stereotypes and pushing boundaries.
That routine had glitterball written all over it.

Longtime outside observer of football while married to AberdeenFC fan and now I find myself tuning into these post match interviews. Jimmy Thelin - He’s some boy !
Breaking: @SkyNews just deleted this video by their Amsterdam correspondent @AlicePorterTV posted to Twitter, without public explanation. I saved a copy.
The video explains the truth about the Israeli football hooligans who went on a racist rampage in the city this week. Watch:
Iraq is legalizing child marriage and lowering the age of consent to just 9.
Iraqi women’s rights activist risks her life and confronts an iman who sponsored the bill.
“You’re following Muhamad who married 9-year-old Aisha 1400 years ago. That is not normal in today’s world!”
Have to say in 40+ years of following @AberdeenFC have never seen so consistently such a positive atmosphere at Pittodrie as now, even in 80s. The displays, flags, fireworks, singing have turned it from sweetie paper rustling to bouncing. JT making us believe & have pride again
@simonwaltersuk There is NO antisemitism it’s called FAFO, Simon.
Do you condemn these ISRAELIS, disrespecting the minutes silence for victims of the floods in Spain? Do you condemn their racist chanting towards the People of Gaza?
I'd argue that today's media coverage of the Amsterdam situation is one of the most transparent and easily refutable cases of false reporting i've ever seen.
It took the full force of the internet to get major networks to start reporting it even remotely correctly. Disturbing.
‘Traumatised’ Maccabi Tel Aviv fans arriving at Ben Gurion airport from Amsterdam singing:
Ole ole, ole ole ole
Let the IDF win & fuck the Arabs
Ole ole, ole ole ole
Why is school out in Gaza?
There are no children left there!”
I know that, like me, many of you will be feeling fearful this morning. So on this dark day, we stand in solidarity with all those who dreaded this moment and must now live with its consequences, including those in Gaza and in Ukraine. The struggle for truth, peace, and justice goes on.
I recommit myself and my party to that struggle this morning.
The politics of hatred will not win. Together, we will go forward with a renewed sense of connection with all those around the world who feel shaken by this election result but determined to continue to defend what matters: to build a safe, just, and inclusive green future.
Together we curse the darkness, yes, but we also light candles, to mark our unity and the shared power of radical hope that comes from resistance: resistance to Trump, resistance to fascism, and resistance to all those who seeks to divide us.
