Tell Labour MPs: Hold the line. — add your name. via @labholdtheline holdtheline.org.uk/petition

Whatever complaints MPs have about Keir Starmer, they are now descending into the kind of headless chickenry that - whatever and whoever the outcome - will make the situation even worse for Labour. If there is a grand plan starring Catherine West and a few PPSs, then it doesn’t feel terribly thought through. A period of calm would do none of them any harm. The general election is a fair way off. The next legislative programme is about to be unveiled. There are better ways to reach such an important decision and better times too. You are MPs not commentators who exist to feed a frenzy.

@karunpal The sun rising every morning and the dawn chorus......nothing else matters. 😊❤️

The older I get, the more I believe happiness lives in the ordinary. Pets. Plants. A quiet morning coffee. Blue sky. Cotton clouds. Birds singing. The gentle breeze through the trees. A clean, cosy house. Good food. Good hearted simple poeple. So much of life’s beauty is quiet, gentle, and already here. And somehow, one of the sweetest feelings is knowing I get to wake up and meet it all again tomorrow.

@ScarthLloyd I on the other hand just turned the TV off......game changer!

BBC News is simultaneously on BBC1 and BBC2 right now. There's an Election Special on BBC1 at 7.30 followed immediately by Question Time. The drive to create a sense of national crisis is relentless.

My post on Farage, Nathan Gill and Russia is being suppressed by the X algorithm - a mere 592 views in 9 hours. Has the algorithm been tweaked to protect Farage in the run up to the local elections?

@Kristinartz 'Fresh air is free' as my dear old Mum delighted in telling me!

How many of you had a backyard clothesline instead of a dryer and helped hang the laundry?

@Kristinartz To this day I still find hanging out the washing to be SO therapeutic! 🙂

A reminder, Boris Johnson changed the vetting procedures so that he could ignore them and appoint who he liked, with no oversight. And changed the Ministerial Code so that Ministers would not have to resign. And Tories? Those that were not actively supportive, were silent.

Conveniently everyone in this country has very short memories about security clearance concerns surrounding @BorisJohnson appointment as Foreign Secretary. Meeting with Former KGB Agent: In 2022, it was revealed that Johnson, while serving as Foreign Secretary in 2018, attended a party in Italy hosted by former KGB agent Alexander Lebedev without officials present. This meeting occurred after a NATO meeting centered on Russia, leading to accusations of a "complete disregard for basic national security". Restricted Intelligence Access: During his tenure as Foreign Secretary (2016–2018), Downing Street under Theresa May reportedly attempted to withhold sensitive intelligence from Johnson due to concerns within the intelligence community regarding his ability to keep information confidential. Security officials were "wary" of sharing information with him. Use of Private Communication: Johnson and several ministers were accused of breaching national security guidance by using personal email accounts and phones for government business. Peerage for Evgeny Lebedev: Concerns were raised regarding Johnson's decision to grant a peerage to Evgeny Lebedev, son of Alexander Lebedev, in 2020, despite security advice. Post-Office Lobbying (The "Boris Files"): Leaked documents from 2025 indicated that after leaving office, Johnson potentially misused his former contacts for personal financial gain, including lobbying senior Saudi officials and meeting with Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, which raised concerns about the blurring of private business and national security. Breach of Ethics Rules: A 2025 investigation found that Johnson breached rules regarding the misuse of political contacts after leaving office and failed to cooperate with the investigation.  People in this country attack the wrong targets. And forget the scandals that went on before this @UKLabour Government was elected to power and then gets unwarranted and sinister attacks from a conspiracy on both the left and right.

@WalshFreedom @docrussjackson Yep, couldn't have put it better myself!

The strait was open. He starts a war. The strait closes. The world economy gets fucked. He doesn’t know what he’s doing, he gets bored, he declares victory, and he tells the rest of the world to open the strait, to clean up his mess. He’s such a prick. He’s such a destructive prick.
