5 lads from South London out in the country in white vans.. seems to me that they were probably trying to steal red diesel.
And the Police have now let them out on bail, which they wouldn't do if there was any evidence of a terrorist plot.
Stand down, Trump and co 😆

Tommy Robinson thinks he’s above the law. Let’s see if the taxman agrees.

We are calling on the Government to refer the evidence around Stephen Lennon’s finances to HMRC for a full investigation.

One solution to all that's going on - and I realise this is not *the answer* - is to listen to more Grateful Dead. Inspiration in this one for a start "What a long, strange trip its been" open.spotify.com/track/1I6l01...

A year of reasons why Ofwat should just say NO to Thames Water's outrageous deal - being allowed to pollute our water for 15 years.

MARCH: Thames Water & Ofwat both scaremongering in the press about the cost of taking TW into public ownership.

But here's the truth.

Hello Bluesky, we are Survivors' Poetry. We've been around as a group since 1991 but today is our Bluesky birthday. We'll be posting around our events and other projects as we go along. We look forward to meeting people here and having new conversations 🥰

I'm back on bluesky, for the moment, and this is to give a shout out to our new @survivors-poetry.bsky.social account. I'm involved in making events and stuff happen with them. Give us a follow!
This was the anthology which we published in 1995. It's sadly quite hard to get hold of a copy these days (though not impossible, our admin found this copy this year!). This is one of the poems, by Michael Horovitz...❤️ #PoetsofBluesky #BlueskyPoetry #PoetrySky #PoetryCommunity
