This is my last post on X. I invite all my friends to move to BlueSky and say hello (@rodmacrae.bsky.social).
@elonmusk is using X to promote dangerous right-wing content and interfere in British politics.
ALT I have moved to BlueSky @rodmacrae.bsky.social where algorithms don't promote dangerous right-wing bile! If you want to know more, I recommend watching the Sky News investigation into how X is targeting right wing stories to new accounts. https://news.sky.com/story/the-x-effect-how-elon-musk-is-boosting-the-british-right-13464487
I am at a loss as to why common sense is seen as partial in this episode of 'BBC think' when good plain English champions would surely applaud!
If you let the richest man in the world meddle with UK politics, you end up with the kind of chaos the US is in right now. We have to find a way to stop him. #musk #extremist #nonsense

Bruce Springsteen on Trump: “I couldn't care less what he thinks about me. He's the living personification of what the 25th Amendment and impeachment were for. If Congress had any guts, he'd be consigned to the trash heap of history."
RETWEET if you stand with @Springsteen!
Makes you think. 'What kind of country could the UK be?'

Brexit isn’t working, and the British people know it. They're fed up with the damage caused by the deal forced on us by Conservative party.
Keir Starmer must show some courage and set Britain on a clear path to a new customs union with the EU by 2030.
ALT The Guardian opinion headline reads: “Brexit has been a resounding disaster. Starmer must find the courage to change course” by Ed Davey.
The @edfringe festival is fab. But the #CringeFestival of exploitative hotel price hikes is NOT OK. Maybe it's time for laws curbing excessive greed. And ban dynamic ticket pricing for gigs too! independent.co.uk/arts-enter…
I cannot think of a greater exit for a company which rotted from the head down to end it's days bankrupt. Wipe the slate clean and start again but with PROPER oversight

So,@EdinburghUni ,you take £9,300 a year for FOUR year from your students but don't print enough programmes for everyone at graduation. F#¿!G SHAMEFUL. Costs irrelevant. Can we claim a refund?

This is the shocking moment that a ‘kangaroo’ was spotted hopping along a road in Henley, Oxfordshire, at around 3am this morning. Video sent in to @TheOxfordMail by Roman Gerashchenko. 😳 🦘

Hi. I am moving to BlueSky, a great social channel just like Twitter used to be. I want to escape the bile spewed by so many on X, including it's owner. Let's hook up in a nicer world. rodmacrae.bsky.social 👍😀
What a shambles
"Thames Water launches £3bn emergency fundraising drive."
It's do or die time for @thameswater and here's the sting in the tail. Currently 28% of customers bills already goes to paying interest on the existing debt mountain. How much will that increase and that's assuming anyone would want to lend them a fiver?

It's a hairy scary time to run @OperaAnywhere no Arts Council funding and almost entirely reliant on precarious ticket sales. But I have to say this IS an exciting year!
