You can find me in my campervan thinking about another bike ride. #MDANT from across the way.

The Labour MP for East Thanet, Polly Billington MP, has written to the Reform Leader of Kent County Council to express her concern about Reform in Kent’s "continued endorsement of anti-science organisations and conspiracy theories" in a new motion on climate change (🧵)
“Privatisation is a failed experiment.” Green Party leader Zack Polanski says UK households are paying £250 more a year thanks to privatised services. Time to take back control of water, energy, and transport! Link:
Anyone out in Bath today. If you spot this bike and tell me where it is I will pay you fuckin handsomely. Pop a lock on it I’ll literally give you £500.
Welcome to the United Kingdom! 🇬🇧 Never before in U.S. History has a President been acknowledged by another country in this unique way! 🇺🇸 At Windsor Castle, in London & all across the land, people are United! ✊ They all want to see the #EPSTEIN_PedoFiles, ASAP! 👀
Ordinary folks are hurting, and the GOP still wants to make healthcare a lot more expensive. Vote them out, America!
I know exactly where that is, just outside of Victoria Barracks, and those roads are regularly closed for the changing of the guard at the castle. That is no reason for the illegal confiscation of the van though.
🚨 POLICE TOOK OUR TRUMP & EPSTEIN VAN They're obviously terrified of THIS photo of Donald with the world’s most notorious paedophile making headlines while Trump visits the King. So whatever you do - DO NOT SHARE THIS VIDEO Location: Windsor High Street, UK #trump #epstein
😏
Private Eye nailing it again
Happy birthday for yesterday sir. I stopped at 35, and now 62 feels very wrong..
Even more considerate of the royals to provide pristine surfaces upon which the campaign group Led By Donkeys could project their Trump-Epstein videos.
I see labour's master plan of copying the Tory policy of shipping asylum seekers elsewhere whilst avoiding due process is working as well as it did for the Tories. The solution is legal, safe routes, and quick processing. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
“These waters should be the cleanest in the country, yet they are treated as open sewers by profit-driven water companies and poorly regulated industrial-scale agriculture” A new report has found that river pollution is twice as bad inside national parks as outside them: https://bit.ly/3K7l2wo
Windsor, tonight. Perfect. Police running around to shut down the projector.
Don’t recall, MAGA - that’s right wing, correct?
Sneakers…
ICE killed a Chicago area man last week. His name was Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez. He wasn't "the worst of the worst." He was a cook. ICE hopes we'll forget about him. We won't.
Question: How long are Dems going to allow the MSM to claim that Kirk was killed by a leftist without an organized consistent response the Robinson was an nihilistic alt-RIGHT meme lord who follows Nick Fuentes?
Walk to the gates, turn left and then dip into the Two Brewers for a quick pint..
I have started the Gentleman on ‘flix and so far so good.
One way to get banned from the McDonald’s drive through…
The best part of the story is that my aunt was with him and completely missed that he wasn’t on the train!!!
And keep fucking off until no one can see or hear his nonsense
One of my uncles was a fan of tai chi, apart from the time he was so lost in the moment he missed his train…
Now Gibraltar has won its way back into Schengen and a customs deal with more access than before Brexit, while the rest of us are stuck with queues, red tape and decline. And where’s the UK press? Silent. Once again it’s Washington Post exposing Brexit. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...
Whoa.
"I don't care that he's dead." "He's not a hero." "He's a scumbag." "He shouldn't be celebrated." No, no. I'm not saying that about Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk said that about George Floyd. Just in case anyone's interested in what he thought was fair to say about someone who was killed on camera.
The following day… also last week around Aberdeen was fabulous!!
You should try Dunnet Head!! It’s lovely when you can’t see across the Pentland Firth!!
Bristol, the most diverse city I have ever been to, very unsurprisingly strikes back. Good.
Fcukin hypocrites
Clarity and integrity in this great article by Bernie Sanders. No ifs, no buts, RFK Jr must leave government, for the health and safety of the American people. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
@berryh.bsky.social happy birthday 🎂
“The odds of fatal injury increased by 44% for people of all ages struck by an SUV, compared with those hit by a passenger car. Among children the odds of fatal injury increased by 82%, and among children under the age of 10 it increased by 130%.” www.lshtm.ac.uk/newsevents/n...
Does scrubbing off Banksy’s mural silence protest or make the message louder?
It has mounts for mudguards and panniers as standard. It is capable of being used on most surfaces, bar a full on downhill course.. Try before you buy if possible and don’t run the saddle too low!!
So… I am a bit shorter than you and have medium sized Specialized flat bar gravel e-bike, a medium size Giant TCR road bike and a 55 x 55 cm steel Simoncini road bike.. I have a long body so the TCR and Simoncini have either a long tube or long stem. The Specialized is a long top tube as well.
Ireland, Slovenia, Iceland, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium and Portugal are now all considering boycotting Eurovision unless Israel are removed. Like if they should. RT if Israel should be kicked out
Can anybody recommend some jazz records with an Autumnal feel? Internet searches are nowhere near as interesting as you lot. Please repost so I can get a bit old list together. Thank you.
@stuhennigan.bsky.social a ghost sign from Stonehaven for you..
Trump broke the law to raise your prices. How dumb is that?
Please
Will you have some at the Bristol gig?
Did RFK Jr just take away your cancer treatment? mRNA promised to help turn cancer from a death sentence into a manageable condition.
Try to find 818 in mid Wales, it used to connect 8 and 81 around The Centre of Wales. We did it a couple of years ago, the puddles had tadpoles in them, the cows were surprised to see us, I walked a descent and the bit of tarmac was dementedly fast. All good fun…
We’re further down Loch Linnhe and the weather is sweeping through in waves of heavy rain. We managed a great ride this morning, a bit damp in places, but the strong winds are more troublesome. We had to pedal down hill at one point 😱😱
Did we stop?
Keir Starmer’s new director of communications isn’t just the founder of Portland Communications – which represented Qatar, Russia and Kazakhstan – he’s also come straight from the board of the anti-trans charity Sex Matters. The government is heading in a dark direction.
@brianwoolfinder.bsky.social is this the death of the labour? Sex matters are a very shady charity 🤮
I wouldn’t have thought many Labour MPs came into politics to strip the rights of torture survivors to be reunited with the spouses & children. They need to take a long hard look in the mirror & ask whether Starmer, Cooper & Reeves are really the leadership their careers should be remembered with.
Labour doubling down on migrants is so self defeating. The country won’t get better because migrants aren’t the problem, and they’ll still get voted out. Chasing the far right is a fool’s errand. Fixing the country for everyone is the only real solution.
Doubts cast on Kemi Badenoch’s claim of US medical school offer Stanford University ex-staff and experts raise questions over Tory leader’s claim of place and partial scholarship offered at 16, saying it is an impossible scenario www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
Probably racially abused the nice nurse that put it on him. Still an early exit awaits him, also I’m pretty sure I’m at least ten years older than him.
Dunnet Bay is booked…
We are in Bunree, looking south
Help definitely required
Had worse views from the camper.. we did wave to @well4243.bsky.social @billisdead.bsky.social @marzid.bsky.social on the way up
Certainly not something like that..
The next highest point east of the Hawthorns is the Ural Mountains in Russia and as a result it is the coolest ground in England…
We won’t notice it at first Maybe an outbreak of cholera in southwest Kansas goes undetected Perhaps the number of flu related deaths ticks up just a bit each year But-ultimately, inexorably-the destruction of the CDC will lead to countless deaths All because of two men Trump and RFK, Jr
Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500. Remember this before you order your next pumpkin spice latte.

Reform supporters … did you vote for Brexit? If you did then this is all your fault! Simple isn’t it?!

‼️Trump revokes Kamala Harris’ Secret Service protection. There is no modern precedent for an American president effectively wielding security details as a political tool — until now. -msnbc
If Trump is still alive and they don’t step on the rumours soon even if he does last another few months this will severely damage him.
The apple is important because it’s the Beatles label and this is the second or third single that was released.
Either you look at every MP and how they’ve acquired their wealth. Or you look at none. You can’t pick the one that pisses you off the most because they left school with nothing and had a child at 16 and lived in a council house. If you do then you’re just a jealous twat.
Went to an Afghan pop up restaurant last night- the food was all cooked by Afghan refugees who had settled in my town Amazing food, lovely people, a great night. Thank you Oh, and fuck you Fartage
In a press release Jack Daniels was whining that their profits and Canadian consumers are being hurt by our own boycott. They still don't get. They say sales dropped 62%. C'mon people we can do better than that. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
Where are you heading?

A friend was commuting from East Cowes to Portsmouth via Ryde on it before she retired a couple of years ago and said it was fun in the summer, less so in the winter.. 🤢
I always wanted a ride on one, but we never got the opportunity 😔

Strong “Your dad shouts at hotels” energy
My copy is on the way, and @johnthefox.bsky.social you need a record player or two in your life… some Weatherall discs..
Correct.
As a tragic Sepsis death is exploited by Scotland’s media they don’t tell you that hospital-acquired infections under the SNP are below half the Labour level in 2006, an eighth of the rate in England and a third of the level in Europe? | Prof John Robertson talkingupscotlandtwo.com/2025/08/28/a...
“Your dad shouts at hotels” is a pretty good playground insult
