Patrick Stewart talks about Clement Attlee (best ever UK PM) winning when he was 5 and how he has been a Socialist ever since.
Which terrifies Americans.

On the birthday of Margaret Thatcher, let us take a moment to remember what a cruel, heartless piece of shit she was.

90 years ago today, Oswald Mosley and his Blackshirts attempted to march through and intimidate a predominantly Jewish area of the East End.
Men, women and children, alongside local residents, trade unionists and anti-fascist protesters, came together to defend the community in what became known as the Battle of Cable Street.
They taught us an important lesson: communities can resist fascism by joining together.
Hate and antisemitism had no place in London then, and it has no place here now.

Ninety years ago today, Duncan Edwards was born.
Described as 'the most complete player I've ever seen' by Sir Matt Busby, Duncan's name remains eternal in our history ❤️

To be honest, if a brief phone alert sends you into spasms of fury, I wouldn’t really trust you not to light a BBQ or firework during a record breaking drought.

Today, we express our special gratitude to Keir Starmer, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, with whom we've done a lot of serious work during the full-scale war. The United Kingdom has always stood with Ukraine and continues to do so. And we value that immensely. Thank you, @Keir_Starmer. Thank you to your team and to all the people of the United Kingdom. I awarded Keir the Order of Freedom in recognition of his personal leadership and support for our people.
Prime Minister Starmer and I have had dozens of meetings, conversations, and decisions together. Today marks Keir's fourth visit to Ukraine as Prime Minister. Altogether, we've had 46 official meetings and calls alone – at least two every month. I am grateful for all the support provided to Ukraine during this time.
Today, Keir and I discussed the key issues regarding the front line, our long-range operations, and our mid-range strikes. Ukraine has achieved significant success in these areas, and we will continue applying every form of such pressure on Russia to bring this war to an end and achieve a dignified peace. We will, of course, continue coordinating closely with our British friends.

Here's Ryan Bridge (in Mexico City) in another effort to distance Raise the Colours and himself from 'this geezer who's alleged to be a nonce'. He asks, 'Am I Raise the Colours, are your Raise the Colours? Then proclaims, 'I think we're all Raise the Colours'. 😂
Let's get this straight Ryan lad 'I'm Not Raise the Colours', I suspect I'm not alone!
Retweet or comment if your 'Are NOT Raise the Colours' too use the hashtag #ImNotRaisetheColour

Commentators, columnists and opposition politicians were apocalyptic with claims that ending private schools' tax breaks would overwhelm the state sector.
The data shows those predictions were wrong.
