Today it’s 50 years since I first presented Playschool wearing my blue beads and silver heart. I adore bringing joy into the lives of my #Playschool Babies during the 12 years I was on the programme. @CBeebiesHQ ❤️

Starmer is a good PM.
He just pissed off the right people (Press barons, billionaires and fascists) who have the power and tools to make the politically illiterate believe he isn’t doing a good job.
The Daily Fail, X and GB “News” are examples of the propaganda.

[Sam @SamCKx]

If Keir Starmer does resign, history will look back on his reign and scratch its head as to why the hell he was so hated.

On paper, he's probably delivered more to working British people in such a short time than any PM for decades.

After inheriting an absolute mess: NHS waiting lists fallen. Worker's rights improved. Rail operators nationalised. Improved relations with EU and improved UK's global reputation. Removed non-dom tax status. Halved childcare costs. Boosted state pensions. Lowest homicide rate in 50 years. Lifted 550k children out of poverty. Immigration vastly reduced.

We are in the age of billionaire funded misinformation, whose sole purpose is to topple democratically elected leaders, and insert leadership that favours the wealthy elites over the working people. Looks like the game plan is working...

This is powerful!!

The video strikingly illustrates the game of misinformation that’s being played by Nigel Farage & others. It shows who’s actually benefiting from it.

Absolutely worth watching!

If you can, share these images of the beautiful soul stolen from us by the worst of humanity.

Let his face today burn bright.
Barney, I promise you there will be accountability 💛💚

For You. For Grace. For Ian.

The world, Europe, and Spain have faced this critical moment before. In 2003, a few irresponsible leaders dragged us into an illegal war in the Middle East that brought nothing but insecurity and pain.

Our response then must be our response now:

NO to violations of international law.

NO to the illusion that we can solve the world’s problems with bombs.

NO to repeating the mistakes of the past.

NO TO WAR.

The U.S. and other partners are asking Ukraine for help intercepting Iranian drones.

It is, of course, hypocritical for the U.S. administration, which cut off Ukraine’s weapons and sided with russia in the so-called “peace negotiations.”

Nevertheless, Zelenskyy said he is willing to help, adding that any assistance Ukraine provides will be on the condition that it does not weaken its own defenses.

Zelenskyy: “Partners are reaching out to us, to Ukraine, for help with defense against Shaheds, expertise, and real operational support. There have been requests about this from the American side as well. Over the past few days, I have spoken with the leaders of the Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Jordan, and Kuwait. There will be more talks with other regional leaders. We are coordinating with our European partners. Of course, any assistance we provide will be only on the condition that it does not diminish our own defense in Ukraine and that it serves as an investment in our diplomatic leverage.”

After years of facing massive drone barrages from russia, Ukraine now has the world’s most extensive real-world experience and technologies for countering drones.

As one man once said: Who has the cards now?!

🚨BOOM: Sen. Chris Van Hollen drops a BOMB on Trump about Iran:

“Netanyahu said the other day that he's been waiting 40 years… to get to this point…

It took him 40 years to find an American president who is STUPID enough to drag America into this war.”

[Paul Mason @paulmasonnews]

In the next 25 years @Keir_Starmer 's decision to reject Trump's demand we join a war with no clear purpose, for the sake of the Special Relationship, will be seen as historic. This was a decision where Britains values and interests aligned✊🇬🇧🚩

[Bricktop_NAFO @Bricktop_NAFO]

I need to say some things on behalf of the United Kingdom to @realDonaldTrump

We went to war for you, we brought soldiers home in coffins for you, our soldiers bled and then you disrespect us, try to interfere with out democracy and install a far right puppet regime, You turn against your allies for Russia. You destroy our 'Special relationship' and apply tarrffs on out nation for profit just like you have with every other nation whilst destroying Americas reputation and embarrasing your whole nation.

Then you get mad because we wont suck Israel's dick with you. Fuck this guy. Fucking nonce.

There is a special place in hell for scumfucks like this.

America this story is getting boring now. Do it...

[James Melville 🚜 @JamesMelville]

I am no fan of Keir Starmer. But if he stands up to Trump & prevents the UK from entering into another potentially disastrous military conflict in the Middle East, he will gain respect for that. It’s time for him to channel Hugh Grant in Love Actually.

[Anders Åslund @anders_aslund]

Europe must not assist the US in its war against Iran:
1. Europe must focus on helping Ukraine defeat Russia.
2. Trump has abandoned Ukraine & gone over to Russia.
3. The Israeli-US war against Iran is a war of choice.
4. Rubio: Israel compelled the US to join. /1

Apparently there are a lot of people around today who are under the impression that Tourette’s is something that can be controlled. I wonder if these are the same people who would tell someone with chronic depression to just 'cheer up'?

[Brian S @ExInspectorBDS]

My thoughts are with John Davidson today, Tourettes sufferer and campaigner. He's worked hard to raise awareness of a condition that makes people shout horrible things.

It happened to him last night. At the BAFTA's.

And he's actually being condemned as a racist.

By idiots.

When women get a cervical biopsy - which involves cutting off a small piece of the cervix - we are offered no pain management whatsoever, not even a numbing agent. The cervix is sensitive; even having it hit during sex can be extremely painful. Having a piece of it cut off without any kind of anesthetic is one of the most painful things I’ve ever experienced, and I have endometriosis. We are not given any painkillers afterwards either; not even an ibuprofen. Women’s pain, after all, has always been the foundation of gynecology.

Men, on the other hand, are fully sedated for prostate biopsies, which are the closest equivalent, and are sent home with prescription pain medication and doctor’s orders to take the next few days off from work.
