If everyone who wants The Conversatives out on the 4th of July follows and retweets we'll reach a million by midnight and have a much bigger voice for the next six weeks.

If VAT on public school fees is 'class war', what is the right term for 7.7% interest rates on student loans?

Putin tried and failed to murder Navalny quickly and secretly with poison, and now he has murdered him slowly and publicly in prison. He was killed for exposing Putin and his mafia as the crooks and thieves they are. My thoughts are with the brave man's wife and children.

"We're running out of equipment, especially missiles and interceptors" - Oksana Markarova, Ukrainian ambassador to the US.
You've seen the horrible aftermath of the Russian strikes on Ukraine. Without air defense, without weapons countless civilians will die.
Please give our military the tools to protect Ukrainians. Weapons and ammunition mean more soldiers will return home to their families.
The values of democracy are at stake today. And the stakes are very, very high.
The interview with @OMarkarova is here: bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

EX MACHINA was released 10 years ago this week. Acclaimed as one of the best science fiction movies this century and, in exploring A.I. now more relevant than ever, the making of story is as big as the Norwegian mountains it was shot in…

CASINO ROYALE was released 18 years ago. Daniel Craig’s first 007 outing and the film that reinvented James Bond, the behind-the-scenes story will have you weeping blood…

A Junior Doctor can buy a single sandwich for £3 in the hospital cafeteria and has to pay.
A MP can get British Beef and potato paprika goulash for £3.19 and then make you pay.
They also get free parking and Junior Doctors pay £1300.
I know who deserves a pay rise.

THE SHINING (1980) recreated in Lego mock ups. The detail is incredible. Can't find who made these so please credit if you know...

Measles is a grave threat to children's health. It can cause lifelong disability. Sometimes it kills.
If you circulate false claims about the "dangers" of the MMR vaccine, which protects against measles, you put children at risk.

🧵Positions, thoughts & feelings that can be held simultaneously:
1. The atrocities committed by Hamas were abhorrent & must be condemned.
2. If for some misguided reason you are celebrating them you have lost your way.
3. There is no excuse for antisemitism. None.

Sometimes a story lands that leaves you utterly baffled. How has this concrete issue only just come to light? Why wasn’t something done when risks first identified? Why are schools being told to close literally the day before they were meant to open? The fuck-up is mind-boggling.

Full regalia of modern Tory batshittery in Dorries resignation later: deep-state conspiracy theory gibberish, preening self-regard, constitutional illiteracy & a refusal to take any responsibility for her actions or those of the govts she's served in. mol.im/a/12448557

The world’s 500 richest people collectively added $852 billion to their fortunes during the first half of 2023.
That's an average of $14 million a day for each.
It's not radical to tax the rich. It's radical to allow this level of extreme wealth concentration to continue.

France spends 25% more per person on healthcare than the UK does. Germany spends 56% more. Significantly more funding for healthcare is not a silver bullet, but no serious answer to the NHS's short & long term problems can ignore it. #NHS75

This happened on the same day my dad, terrified and confused, was taken into hospital with Parkinson’s-related psychosis. My mum couldn’t accompany him in the ambulance or visit him or even see the care home he was discharged to. None of us were allowed to see him for months.

Thanks for the birthday messages, cake, & £20 notes posted through CEEFAUX Towers' letterbox (& 95p in coppers) - every like & retweet is hugely appreciated. We may be a bit drunk so here's some favourite May 2022 #CEEFAUXclassicrepeat listings. Love you x competition tomorrow!
ALT FILM: STAR WARS BUT EVERYONE IS NOW SHOUTING AT EACH OTHER. Un-neccessary audio recut of George Lucas' space adventure where all character speaking voices have been trebelled in volume, making everyone appear much more grumpy and antagonistic, especially the droids.
ALT 23.55 DAVID ATTENBOROUGH'S PC WORLD. The ground-breaking documentary continues. Sir David spends two weeks disguised as a bluetooth speaker to observce the mating rituals of staff in the Hull store.
ALT 12.15 GRAN STAND. Steve Ryder presents uninterrupted coverage on an OAP who has failed to pre-book a seat on a packed bank holiday train from Bristol Temple Meads to York.
ALT 15.25 SHOWJUMPING FROM VENICE. Incredibly brief highlights of the ill-judged, one-off event.
