This a million times. I still blame #BBC for #Brexit

Son hasn’t lost his hover board skills, but dog really not sure what to make of flying playmate. Please excuse Sunday mess

My view of these #LocalElections2024 results is very simple (although not being spoken about much):

#Brexit was a #populist policy to get #Boris Johnson to power. It subsequently destroyed the #Tory party to become a confused right-wing cabal.

#Redwall voters are angry, with…
