Proud Welsh lady of leisure
Hate what’s happening to the Uk.
Definitely not a Tory.

Today, the Scottish Parliament voted overwhelmingly in favor of protecting trans rights. It wasn't even close. The lawmakers of Scotland actually listened to medical experts, respected science, and refused to permit hateful propaganda to dictate control of vulnerable people. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️

A few things I wish Labour would say…

- We’ll investigate the fraud & corruption of this Tory Govt

- We’ll ditch Rwanda plan

- We’ll introduce PR

- We’ll prioritise NHS

- We’ll back the unions

- We’ll tax the ultra rich

- We’ll stop being such bellends about Brexit.

👀👀👀👀👀. Michelle Mone's businessman husband faces jail if found guilty of Spanish tax charge: Prosecutors in Spain confirmed they were seeking custodial sentences for 7 🇬🇧 businessmen, inc Doug Barrowman, ahead of their trial. All 7 deny charges that *surprised face* include tax evasion

Prosecutors allege they evaded tax & took £millions out of a Spanish company to put in their pockets. The company went bankrupt 4 years later, costing 200 workers at a cable factory near Santander their jobs.

I couldn’t possibly love this BBC video more.

These little Ukrainian evacuees now attend a Welsh-medium primary school, and their Cymraeg is utterly delightful.

“Everyday, we're seeing why his Twitter buyout should never have been permitted to happen. Everyday I wonder where the government was when they had the chance to pump the brakes with a National Security review. Everyday, I wonder why Elon's blatant stock manipulations go unpunished.”

I’m not particularly interested in anything to do with the Royal Family but I am interested in keeping abreast with the news, as such I watched #Harry&Meghan today.
My overriding impression is that they seem decent, the racism and hate they’ve endured is obscene, and the British Tabloids are an abomination.
The fact they dared to mention the hostility and increase in hate crimes caused by #Brexit is precisely why the haters are up in arms, and is refreshing, the racists hate being called racist.

UK Govt has kept so many workers in year-on-year pay cuts for 10 years. Eventually, there is a breaking point, it's inevitable, and our govt has gone beyond it. The govt has brought this on themselves through their policies, choices and failure.

So I don't know how to summarize this.

Exposure to Covid is gambling with death and disability. And some people get lucky while gambling. But it's better to stack the deck in your favor.

The most fucked up policy decision global leaders made vis à vis COVID was telling the public that it was safe to send kids to school and to return to work.

We now have an entire generation of children and their parents who will suffer the effects of long COVID- either directly or indirectly- long after today's world leaders are long gone. smdh.
