Liz Truss has links to the Heritage Foundation and gave a speech to them earlier this year.

Ha. Just like the far right in the UK! Farage's party today accused of fielding non-existent candidates in last week's election.

Trump and Project 2025 are attacking the Department of Education. How might they reshape US schools?

Vote tactically, but please vote today. If you're in Bicester and Woodstock, please vote for LibDem Calum Miller, who was the stand-out candidate in our local hustings last week. A LibDem Opposition can start the conversation about a move back to the EU, against Labour reluctance to do so.

I'm also glad I have to vote LibDem where I am to stop the Tory (new constituency). The LDs need to be the Opposition and to keep talking about brexit in the Commons to at least force the discussion.

Thanks. We have a large section of pollution that lacks critical thinking skills and is ill-informed. Our schools are starved of money to ensure this continues. We may make some steps forward tomorrow, but it will take decades to undo the damage. Happy Independence Day to you and your countrymen.

Got a lot of Brit friends over here on Bluesky, so to all of you, I wish you an awesome and patriotic 4th of July! Send those Tories packing tomorrow and take your country back. Looking forward to returning to a kingdom that has returned to sanity.

Please check where you live what your tactical vote should be. It's not always Labour.

Reviewing our years-long desire to live in France after recent events. Where can one go to avoid the far right, though?

Used to work with O'Flynn on a regional newspaper way back when and went to his wedding. He seemed a decent sort, so no idea when he fell down a rabbit hole.

O'Flynn and Pearson, of course, know all about smug self-righteousness.

Same here in Bicester. LibDem signs everywhere. Haven't seen a single Tory one, and only one Labour. The Tory candidate was lacklustre in hustings, trying to disassociate himself from the past 14 years and brexit.

Bicester and Woodstock is where I am. It's a new seat but we were formally part of Banbury, and Victoria Prentis. The only campaigning around here is for the LibDems. Loads of front gardens have the LibDem diamond.

The Tories are in their tailspin descent now, shrieking warnings about how the sky will fall in if we don’t save them. They don’t see how much we want them to crash and burn. How angry we are with the damage they’ve done. How we will not forgive or forget.

Doing the same from our middle England Oxfordshire town in a new constituency (formerly Tory). The only visible support here is for the LibDems.

Understandable that Sunak doesn't want his kids to grow up in a country where they have to listen to things like that Reform ltd. racist He should then also have stopped his MPs from constantly using blaming the Tory Party's failures on immigrants and playing culture war politics.

We bought some 'calming' treats and, last night, no problems. Fingers crossed it continues. Also daughter ran her round the block before bedtime. Literally ran.

Project 2025, people, and don't think this won't come to the UK in the future if Farage gets a foothold into our politics.

Tactical voting can mean the LibDems though. And even the Greens in some areas.
