“Retailers including Amazon, Argos and Currys have been found to advertise e‑scooters for use on public roads and paths, despite this being against UK law.” People do tend to get very upset when you point out to them their silent and deadly e-scootering is illegal. #E-scooters #JustWalk #Walking

“But here’s the important thing; it will only be based here. The job of No 10 North will be to make power flow into the Midlands, into the South West, into the East of England and yes, into London.” So definitely time for Scotland and Wales to be independent and Ireland reunited. #AndyBurnham #Labour

“Israeli army has killed 235 children in West Bank since 7 October 2023 without a single indictment in what rights groups call a ‘licence to kill’.” What do you expect in an ethnic cleansing? #Israel #Palestine #IDF #Genocide

“Thirty-nine people have been killed in another day of intense Israeli strikes in Lebanon, the country&#39;s health ministry said.” Come on Keir if you want to save your premiership you need to show you care about this and stop the unconditional support for Israel. #Starmer #Labour #Israel #Palestine #Lebanon
