Politically homeless, believer in free speech, equal rights, all that stuff we used to think was progressive. Musical home somewhere between Bach and 70s prog.

This country is now making electric motorbikes. It's time to retire noisy, polluting petrol powered motorbikes and mopeds. Put a few in museums and recycle the rest from 2030, when riders have had time to buy nice new clean, quiet bikes.

@Essex_Patriot @robert2hartley I’ve been watching politics for 50+ years now, and I can’t get my head round this. He went back on almost every single promise he made before the election, blatantly and shamelessly, everybody knows it, and he’s still there. How?

He said he would freeze council tax He said he would lower energy bills He said he would reduce student tuition fees He said he would support farmers He said he would protect pensioners He said he would support the disabled He said he would help small businesses He said he would fix the economy He said he would overhaul the immigration system At every turn, he's done precisely the opposite. Keir Starmer is the ultimate traitor and the most hated PM of all time.

@thinkdefence @davidville20251 I like this idea, a kind of Halls of Residence for MPs. Anyone who thinks it’s a bad idea needs to explain exactly why. MPs comfortable, safe and close to their workplace. What’s not to like, except the lack of opportunities to steal taxpayer cash?

MPs should when in London, live in a HMG owned furnished apartment complex, funded and managed centrally. No MP should be accumulating capital gains on property on the taxpayers coin

MPs should have a centrally funded case work team, and that team should be trained and managed by Parliament, using shared IT, not the MPs.

@BraedenSorbo Forgot to add: if anyone asked the basis of the diagnosis, the answer was ‘well, he disagrees with Party policy, and Party policy is right, and no sane person does that because that would be denying what is right.’ It has a fearsome logic.

@BraedenSorbo Soviet Russia and East Germany did the same thing. Have an enemy but no evidence to convict? Certify him mad and lock him away on an indeterminate sentence. 90% of population say ‘well, if he’s mad it’s for the best, I suppose’. It’s a dangerous precedent.

I have not seen anybody talking about what’s going on in Canada right now. This man was pulled over and told by police that he had to come with them because a psychiatrist labeled him “certifiable.” No paperwork, no rule of law, just a doctor saying that if he didn’t come with him right then and there that he would be arrested. The fact that a government could do this is terrifying.

Someone on Facebook has posted that they’ve put water by their gate for any passing dogs. Someone else has told them that it’s cruel for dogs to drink from communal bowls. I don’t know how we got through the seventies. 🤦‍♀️

Just so you know. Boomers didn't have fast food. Except fish and chips. Boomers didn't have ready meals. Except Vesta beef curry. Look it up. Boomers didn't have colour TVs, front loading washing machines, central heating or holidays abroad. Boomers didn't have babymoons or baby showers nor did they go on stag or hen weekends. Boomers didn't go to restaurants. Except on birthdays. Boomers didn't have new clothes every year, every season. They made do and mended. But Boomers had a fabulous time in the 1960s to 1980s because people were friendly, respectful, dignified and hardworking. Boomers also had law and order and a judiciary who punished ALL criminals. Boomers were happy with their lot. Yes. I'm a Boomer. Just so you know.

Islam has a problem with gays, Jews, Sikhs, Christians, Buddhists, Hindus, women, non-Muslims, atheists and apostates, but if I have a problem with Islam, I'm the bigot? Can you see how ridiculous it is?

I believe it’s time to pass legislation to allow women to carry pepper spray and other weapons for their protection. Does ANYONE else AGREE with me?

@benonwine @MutlyPaul Not only women. I don’t want the UK to have universal gun ownership like the US, but all people need to be able to carry things for self-defence that are effective but non-lethal. Don’t attack people, you have nothing to fear.

@thecoastguy I tend not to watch movies, but modern TV drama is the same. We bought a high-quality sound bar for the TV, and it improved matters but not much. Older programmes are fine. We have to use the replay button (“what did she just say?”) frequently if we want to follow the plot.

I find the audio on new movies muffled and indistinct. Old movies are still fine. Is it just me?

@Avabelly__ In the past, up to about 10 minutes ago, even asking the question would have been greeted with ridicule. In the reality-based community, the answer is, and has always been, No. It seems crazy to even say it.

@japan_nobunaga @TTheperyl All untrue. We only imprison those who make specific and violent threats against people. The problem is that we define ‘specific and violent threats’ as saying something that some activist somewhere disagrees with. You know ‘you can’t change sex’ = literal violence. 🤷‍♂️

Hello from Japan 🇯🇵👋 I have a question for British people 🇬🇧🙋 I read in the news that some people in the UK get visited by police because of social media posts. In Japan, we say many things about politics on X and I've never heard of anyone getting a visit. Is this really happening in Britain? I'm just trying to understand. 🤔

@its_Lexieroy This is Starmer on the Southport disturbances, many months ago now. Nothing to do with flags. But nice try. He’s still an authoritarian dickhead, obvs.

Best case: Burnham fails even to be selected for Makerfield. Second best case: Burnham is selected but loses Makerfield massively. Worst case: Restore and Reform both get huge numbers of votes but split the anti-Labour vote and Burnham sneaks in. Think carefully, folks.

🚨BREAKING: A sickening ruling has sparked outrage: Three teenage boys who gang-raped two girls — while filming the attacks on their phones, laughing, and cheering each other on — have been given zero jail time. Judge Nicholas Rowland said he wanted to “avoid criminalising these children unnecessarily” and focus on their “reintegration into society.” The victims? Completely betrayed by the system. This is what happens when judges prioritize rapists over justice. Disgusting. The UK justice sytem is completely broken!
