@IAPonomarenko Inverness, Scotland. Nessie with Ukraine flag on a glorious March morning

@ianrich15813274 Absolutely vile comment from him. He should visit Dunblane and apologise. The memory of that awful day is still very raw up here in north Scotland. My thoughts are with the people of Dunblane and the parents of those children lost.

I had to check precisely what Lowe said about Dunblane. Here it is, no words can adequately describe how vile this man is; he makes Farage look like Saint Francis of Asisi.

@n_docs @JHCPAL Thanks anyway. Im 90% sure Wm Hay was also born Scotland. He had strong Edinburgh connections.

@CrRobinson7 @JHCPAL No, he doesn’t do Hay. Suspect an influx of Scots about that time. My ancestor John Lockey appears in alnmouth mid 18c, no clues where from, I suspect possibly Scotland.

I was not expecting to find anything of Northern interest in Bath. Wrong ! Guinevere gave 2 pronunciation guides in the entrance of the Abbey.....details later. 🤣

@n_docs @JHCPAL Any mention of Hays in Hedley book? Im particularly interested in William Hay of Alnmouth, later of Lesbury. He lived in Lesbury House and leased Lesbury Mill from Duke of Nrthumb. He lived from 1732-1816. Thank you.

@JHCPAL I have copies of Percy Hedley’s Northumberland Families & the 15 vols of the County History if you’d like anything looking up.

@BladeoftheS They dont in Scotland....

"I took the money, I got caught taking the money, I couldn't think of a way of defending taking the money so, with the help of the British media I'm going to divert attention from taking the money by forcing a by-election and pretending I can't talk about the money because of it"

Robert Jenrick has a meltdown on #C4News He refuses to accept that there are parliamentary rules that Nigel Farage may have broken And insists the only people who can judge Nigel Farage are the people of Clacton 😅 - Whatever you do, please don't share this humiliating clip

If and when Andy Burnham becomes PM of the UK, do you think he should transfer powers to the Scottish Parliament so it can hold an independence referendum? Please share for a large response.

Today is the anniversary of one of most tragic, iconic disasters in the history of mining when 26 children aged 7-17 drowned when trying to escape via a day hole from a Silkstone Barnsley colliery in aftermath of a freak storm #LestWeForget

El mayor genocidio de la historia humana no ocurrió en la Alemania nazi, sino en suelo americano del Norte y del Sur. 100 millones de nativos americanos fueron masacrados y perdieron su tierra natal.

@BBCSteveR America has given the world such brilliant music, Jazz, Blues, Rock, Motown.

Over the years America has produced some fantastic TV music. From Cheers to Friends, I play some of my favourite US sitcom theme tunes.

@red_loeb @BBCSteveR Hill Street Blues is my favourite. Great music and playing, love your videos

@BBCSteveR Bravissimo! Now what about a homage to US police/detective TV drama: the Rockford Files, Kojak, Starsky and Hutch, a Man Called Ironside, Hill Street Blues?

Like Hitler,Trump has a thing about 1,000 year claims. Adolf said his Reich would last a 1,000 years, it fell a little short, by 988 to be precise! Yesterday,Trump claimed Communism had failed for a 1,000 years, odd for an ideology that was founded Just 180 years ago. Then, he claimed that Americans have been speaking English for a 1,000 years, when the first English settlers arrived 420 years ago. Mere details of course, who needs facts when you have the hubris of an autocrat?

@Phoebetigs @implausibleblog Its a complete waste of Police time!

@implausibleblog That is far too simplistic and you know

Left: Keir Starmer says our international reputation has improved under his leadership Right: Revd Sue Parfitt, 84, was arrested after holding a sign following the proscription of a protest group by Keir Starmer and Yvette Cooper. Over 1,000 elderly women have been arrested for also holding up signs Under Stramer and Cooper, the face of terrorism is elderly old women, that's trashing our international reputation, not raising it

@RohanBhardxxxx @ianrich15813274 And we will probably be cared for by immigrants or the children of immigrants! We should value them.

@ianrich15813274 Let’s look on the positive note, in under twenty years time most of these 67 yr olds will be dead or too infirm 😌

It's clear that many on the far right don't just dislike Muslims. Take Rupert Lowe for example, he's been having a pop at Pride events today. What defines people like him is hatred, it isn't just of one particular group. They are prone to hating everyone who isn't just like them. That covers about 99% of us, as fortunately there aren't many 67 year old, racist, homophobic, white, male, privately educated, land-owning millionaires.

@ianrich15813274 He must be a really unhappy guy for all his wealth

Gary Lineker on Gaza, "It's the worst thing I have seen in my lifetime. Constant images day in, day out of children losing their lives." "But the minute you raise your voice against it you get accused of being a supporter of Hamas."

Un 4 de julio de 1766, se declaraba la creación de EEUU, una tierra que fue robada a los nativos americanos, edificado con la sangre de las tribus indígenas y con el esclavismo de los africanos, mantenida con el saqueo imperial al mundo. La población nativa en Norteamérica pasó de entre 5 y 15 millones a menos de 238.000 personas a finales del siglo XIX debido a las masacres, la limpieza étnica, el desplazamiento y el genocidio de los colonos blancos, que bajo el gobierno de EEUU autorizó cientos de campañas militares contra las tribus hasta exterminarlas casi al completo. Estados Unidos desde su creación en 1776 ha pasado 230 de sus 250 años de historia en guerra, directa o indirectamente, es decir, más del 92% de su existencia han estado en guerra contra otros países para poder mantener su imperio genocida. Los nativos americanos perdieron el 98% de sus tierras ancestrales y el 96% de su población... pero en sus películas supremacistas los indios siempre son los malos y los buenos son los colonos genocidas... ¿a que me suena 🇮🇱?
