Wanting a cleaner, greener less divisive world.
So right now, I’m feeling severely short changed by #70Up. I feel like this is just a whistle-stop tour of their lives. I want to know more about the ‘now’ and their reflection overall of their lives. #ITV you have missed the moment of an extraordinary doc.

Wow! Can we deport Farage? I never realised he was THAT racist. No one is safe if he, or Reform, gets into power.
Just look at the glee on Nigel Farage’s face as he watches a Piddington resident cry about the overt racism she, her Caribbean heritage husband, and their two children have felt in the village during the referendum.

Time and again he’s showing us exactly who he is.

Instagram Chief - Mosseri: “What happens [without algorithms] is people become a bit less interested in the experience and they use [Instagram] a lot less"

Go Australia! Let's remove algorithms! Can we do this in the UK please?

Farage - "We will call a National Emergency, ALL House of Commons recesses will be cancelled, Parliament will sit as long as it takes".

Checks notes - 'Farage has registered 'absent' from the last 77 votes in Parliament', and that was before May 2026.

Frigging spare me. Get him out.

Just listening to #Farage speaking at the #Reform conference.

10mins in and he just sounds - well, spent. It all sounds such old BS.

The country has moved on.

Reform is old hat. His cabinet is just all the reject politicians from the Tories.

Safe to say I think Farage is never going to be PM.

So have I got this right,

#Farage has been caught by an undercover reporter, on tape accepting illegal foreign donations.........

But there is nothing to see here?
Jeepers - what and who, as a country, have we become?
If true he should be arrested and jailed.
Kick #Reform out of British politics.

Farage’s ludicrous minions selling what’s left of their souls for coins, while either not knowing or caring that their boss secretly trousered five million for his ‘personal use’. He makes absolute twats of everyone who trusts him. And this James Orr character is supposed to be some sort of genius…

The President of the United States of America has a criminal record that is actually worse than 99% of the people he is deporting.

You could not make it up.

Just watched ‘Freefall - A Reckoning For Boeing’ on #Netflix.

I have two questions. Firstly why would anyone ever want to fly on a #Boeing plane, why?
Secondly, why would any airline ever want to buy a Boeing plane, why?

Our service members abroad are having moldy showers, are not getting detergent, not getting soap. Some haven't had a fresh meal in months.

Prisoners in America get better meal rations than these troops are getting right now in the Middle East.
