- Reposted by Seán ConnorsI've seen Macron up close three times. He is probably as good a speechmaker as I've seen (I've seen B. Obama and B. Clinton live), but in these forums, speaking off the cuff, and with a command of detail and a clarity that is unsurpassable, you realise what an exceptional politician he is.
- Reposted by Seán ConnorsI stand with Ukraine!
- Great thread on Labour v tory v reform narrative. Labour need to wise up to this. Their PR is rubbish and their messaging is absolutely dreadful. They are fighting an info war against populism in a tabloid world. Time to wake up to it.
- Reposted by Seán ConnorsGuys, as a film lover I watch all types of movies - fantasy, sci-fi, drama, horror, comedy, action, thriller, you name it. But films like 3 billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri are the type of films that make me love the cinema even more than I do! Watch this masterpiece if haven’t yet.
- "She never put her foot down with my dad, but was expert in doling out polite suggestions." A wonderful line! Encapsulates everything about barely existing with an abusive, controlling partner. I'm now following D. Earl Stephens.

- 🤣🤣 Oh, Austin... Haven't you learned the difference between immigrants and ex-pats yet? Brits abroad are not the same as 'them' over here... See?
- Reposted by Seán ConnorsBloody immigrants. Going to Dubai, paying no taxes, refusing to learn the language, not integrating into their culture. Tsk.
- Reposted by Seán ConnorsNo. He can’t. The E.U. is NEVER splitting the 4 freedoms. That’s an absolute that’s not going to change, particularly not to satisfy people in the only country stupid enough to give it away in the first place.
- A nostalgic drinkers guide to some of Dublin's great watering holes, (and a very deft analogy to British gov attitude to EU relations).
- Thanks for reading. If you've got this far, you're a ⭐ and I feel like wrapping you in one of those tin-foil blankets like at marathons. Collect your medal there. Would love it if you could share this thread, help gain traction on Bsky. Have a great weekend! Ends bsky.app/profile/nial...
- Reposted by Seán ConnorsAn anniversary worth marking. I'm sure we're going to see the very people who have trashed its legacy seek to appropriate WW2 today - so let's remember what was really fought for: peace, a more united Europe, a land fit for heroes (mark 2) and the defeat of fascism.
- Finally, a reason for tik tok to exist. 🤣
- One of my favourite quotations. I repeat it constantly to my offspring.
- Dr Julia is a stalwart defender of the NHS. Those of you who, like me, value the NHS, please consider giving her a follow.

- This is exactly what populism is... Simplistic answers to complex questions, designed for simple minds in a complex world. Labour need to step up their performance and, most importantly, their messaging. Their PR is awful!
- Read this thread. Jason is bang on correct. Voting for Reform because they promise a solution for everything, becomes a negative feedback loop.
- Best definition of populism I've heard... "Simplistic solutions for complex problems, designed for simple minds in a complex world." Farage has made a career out of it!

- Reposted by Seán ConnorsAnother piece of RW ideology taken up by Keir Starmer's Labour. And just like everything else the RW thinks is a brilliant idea, it will be a disaster, followed by a scandal, followed by a public inquiry, followed by every fraudulent scumbag involved getting off scot free.
- Reposted by Seán ConnorsThe financing and transparency of "think tanks" & lobby groups in the UK is an absolute disgrace. It needs root-and-branch reform, starting with full disclosure of donors and an immediate ban on foreign funding. Having broken their own democracy, MAGA plutocrats should not be able to buy up ours.
