I'm quite prepared to throw this fat, old body at the barricades, when the time comes. If nothing else, it'll take four coppers to drag me away.

It is plastics and foodwaste bins this week. I better remember to put them on the kerb, the plastic one is particularly full. Not as full as the paper bin, though, but it is overfull because the collectors were on strike. #SupportTheStrikers

Amazon treats me worse than the warehouse robots – that’s why I’m walking out

... and there you have it.
Steve Barclay is now saying, "I don't think it's fair to be discussing pay arrangements as far back as April."
#neu I support the strike.

Wow. My large print copy of the new #Tolkien #book “The Fall of Numenor” was sent out last night - earlier than expected - and the #RoyalMail said they expected to deliver it tomorrow, i.e. Saturday. Nope, it got to #Dundee 4.30pm, and a postie from Dundee West depot (we are usually Dundee East) delivered it at 6.40pm. Go the #posties! #SupportYourPostie #SupportTheStrikers
#RishiSunak and his lamentable speech today are surely proof positive!
As if any more were needed, that the #Conservatives don't actually give a fuck and are on a #WreckingSpree
Asking to be judged on their #performance?
Is ignoring the #SalientPoint in any discussion of the current state of the #UK
That the current state of the #Economy the #NHS, #SocialCare and the #JudicialSystem are all in the parlous state they are now?
Precisely because of #12YearsOfToryMisrule

There will be five consecutive days of strike action on British Railways
3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th of Jan
#Christmas2022 There's been another human in this house my sis in law. She isolated the week before she came over & tested reguarly as I'm CV. It's been all giving #BrexitTories #BrexitCarnage #ToriesCostLives #ToriesDestroyingOurCountry #SupportTheStrikers
& #MincePies
Does anyone else agree that the #labourparty are now just the Tories in sheep's clothing?
@AliQuack Best #advice ever. The #inflammaTORY language from #UKGovt this morning is a disgrace and will make people dig their heels in all the more.

As it seems I won’t be going back to sleep I’m going to commit to having started the day anew with my #threegoodthings from yesterday
1. My oven is clean ready for Christmas, I don’t know why I do this before and not after Christmas but it’s definitely become a part of my pre Christmas preparation traditions 😂
2. The postman came with a big pile of parcels. I was as happy to see them arrive as I was to #supportthestrikers that delayed them. Only 2 things left to come and that’ll be evri taking their sweet time just because that’s how they do things!
3. All decorations are up, only things left to do are the big shop (today), wrapping (whenever I can be bothered!) and creating the grotto for my niece out of the giant box the sofa came in and other assorted packaging and craft supplies.
Probably could have summed up all three with the phrase it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, but I’m too verbose for that! Whatever holiday you’re celebrating, planning for or ignoring, I hope you’re enjoying it your way with no pressure or guilt from others!
