I believe Clacton deserves an MP who will spend their time shining a light on everything the area has to offer. And why wait till I'm elected? I've been to visit one of the constituency's most stunning landmarks.

I'm clearly not an expat I'm happy to be an immigrant, living in Spain, socialist, late to life runner and obviously Up The Mighty Villa
“If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor.” - Archbishop Desmond Tutu One side wants fascism. The other side wants healthcare as a human right. To even attempt to conflate the two is absurd.
America isn't like this because Trump is president, Trump is president because America is like this.
So are we seeing American and Israeli mob like actions being used against Spain in the supposed Spanish migration Crisis ? Could there have been a more obvious manipulation? The reality is young people died in this manipulation, more blood on their hands
Secretary General of the Estonian 🇪🇪 Ministry of Foreign Affairs. With the correct take. I'm not a huge fan of Spains PM Sánchez but in crises you support and help first, horse-trade after. Its not about personal politics, it about valuable ally and member of OUR #EU
My entire life I’ve never called it the FIFA World Cup. I’ve always called it the World Cup. Fans don’t give a shit about FIFA. If national teams showed up for a World Cup tournament not held by FIFA we would all watch it. World Cup is the brand. FIFA is nothing.
Jonathan Porritt has been arrested. As he says "trying to save lives is not terrorism, exposing this Governments complicity in genocide is not terrorism."
NEW: Sir Jonathon Porritt, arrested under Terrorism law outside Westminster Magistrates Court. As police escorted him away he said "I am a supporter of Palestine Action, trying to save lives is not terrorism, exposing this Governments complicity in genocide is not terrorism." www.wedonotcomply.org
No quarter given. Uefa wants Infantino dead. 'There are moments when institutions are judged not by what they are prepared to accept, but by what they refuse to compromise. The FIFA World Cup belongs to football. So long as Europe has a voice it will never be for sale.' www.uefa.com/news-media/n...

I got my Irish citizenship by going on the overseas birth Register but it didn't feel official until my passport arrived today, which also makes me a citizen of the European Union again 🎉🥳, So screw you Brexit !
BBC News at it again with one of their manipulatively framed headlines, interesting that they don't mention who the USA are 'Striking' but do mention an 'attempted' 'attack' on actual troops in a war by Iran. The headline trying to imply who the bad guys are here
After 17 and a half years today is my last day working in the NHS. I've worked under 12 Health secretaries. Every single one made it harder for us to look after patients and pursued an agenda of privatisation and outsourcing. The NHS thrives in spite of, not because of it’s political leadership.
So FIFA boss guy is offering all nation's football teams £30m each if they approve him and Trump making a company to run football that could be a £20 billion company. Not a bribe, no, not at all. Bunch of corrupt rich cunts.
The World Cup without UEFA means no Mbappe, no Bellingham, no Haaland, no Olise, no Yamal It means no England, France, Spain, Germany, Belgium It means no Zidane, Tuchel, Klopp The World Cup this year without Europe would have just been Argentina & Egypt in the final 8 UEFA must hold firm
So, I've officially closed down my Facebook account, it's something I've been building towards for awhile now, I even started downloading any photos I wanted over a year ago. I logged out of it a month ago and I really haven't missed the constant extreme far right propaganda & rage bait

We live in Rip Off Britain. We need wealth taxes. Rent controls. And real action on the climate crisis - that brings bills down. This is how we make hope normal again.
Bluesky's shitty algorithm is at it again, I'm being bombarded with posts about shitty North American games
France is suffering from the worst wildfire it has had since 1949, while Spain had its worst year ever in 2025 but this year's fires are set to beat that. Global Warming has many consequences.
So I went to see 'The Odyssey' and it was 'ok' I really like Christopher Nolan movies, but this just didn't blow me away, my kids and wife liked it, but I had that meh feeling. I suppose that not every movie can hit the spot
Someone on here described him as Minister for Palantir relations and it was perfect.
🚨EXCLUSIVE: Newly appointed Defence Secretary Wes Streeting has taken tens of thousands of pounds from donors with links to arms firms and controversial US tech firm Palantir, The National can reveal👇 www.thenational.scot/news/2640176...
Making Wes the Weasle Streeting Defense secretary tells us all we need to know about Andy Burnham, it's more of the same red Tory smoke and mirrors bullshit
Spain winning the world cup for football, against the worst team in the worst final at the worst ever world cup, Vamos España 🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸
How the fuck is that not a yellow? Oh yeah its team Messi and FIFA can't jeopardise that
So more of the same, ref letting Argentina get away with dirty fouls again
Thank God that cringy shite has finished and we can get on with the football now
Ok England battering France in the first place game is just seriously fucking annoying, so apparently we can play attacking fucking football, just fuck right off Tuchel
Deeply irresponsible. We're in a climate crisis. This is such a terrible start. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
