- Having a very agreeable time @therestpolitics.bsky.social with Rory and Alister. Terrific so far, but they need to sort their tech out (eg get a proper app and not use a browser!)

- Had an absolute terrific time at the #BritishGP. Fantastic result, pity the GOAT (Sir Lewis) didn’t get a podium but there’s always next year
- Ready for the big game today #Everton @evertonfc.com up the toffees for the last time at the grand old lady!! #happysad

- Another upcoming road trip with my (younger) son, the #BritishGP2025 which we can't both wait for. I am very fortunate to be able to afford to but more importantly I have a wonderful son to share the memory with. As he said "Money is temporary, memories are forever" after visiting #thegrandoldlady

- This is what should be on every front page right now. What's happening in the US right now is an illegal power grab by a private citizen. IT'S A COUP. It's a digital coup. It's Musk who's leading it. The consequences are terrifying. And it's coming for us next. 1/ open.substack.com/pub/broligar...
- YES BETO!!!! #utft
- Had the BEST weekend with my son at the #grandoldlady for the last ever FA cup game. Pity about the result but we’re focusing on the PL obviously. Made even better as during breakfast at Bold street cafe when #efc legend Leighton Baines walks in. My jaw dropped! Thank you for the memories #utft
- Reposted by RetroRobThe UK can secure significant growth of 1.7% - 2.2% through a policy of deep alignment with the EU on goods and services, while staying within Starmer's red lines. This is the approach to push for: peak ambition within the constraints Labour has set. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

- Reposted by RetroRobThere are many voters who have previously backed both Labour and the Conservatives who would now back a centrist party that seeks to cooperate with our closer, democratic, and frankly saner European neighbours whose values are shared by the majority in the UK. This is your opportunity, Ed.

- Reposted by RetroRobMMW: When the time comes and Trump hasn't delivered on anything he promised, just remember you traded your vote for the lives and dignity of your wife, children, friends, and family. So, ask yourself, was it all really worth it in the end? #USDemocracy
- Reposted by RetroRobThe inverted flag isn’t disrespect — it’s a distress signal from naval traditions, used to show grave danger to life or property. With a lawless man set to take power after attempting to overthrow the government, America is in extreme danger. That’s why I’m posting it today.
