Want to piss off the Daily Mail? Then vote Green.

I think it's sad that JT65 has fallen out of use as it's more sensitive still. Q65 could be useful. I've had an AR contact on 6m using that mode

No, personally I can't really see the advantage in it. It's 6dB less sensitive than FT8 (I believe), and being able to complete QSOs quicker isn't important to me. I can see it might be of some use in a contest situation though...

Only one other PSK flag for that transmission, another station in the south of England so I think it was MS

An illegal war by USA & Israel, propped up by missions from UK air bases.

Supported by Nigel Farage.

Over 1000 civilians dead & now the threat of global economic fallout. Trump's disaster makes us all less safe, less secure - and we will remember those who backed it.

“We would be helping the Americans and Israelis in any way they saw appropriate”

“in ⚠️ANY⚠️ way ⚠️THEY⚠️ saw appropriate”

FFS. He wets his pants about an EU army and British sovereignty one minute. But would sign our troops up to god knows what, the next.

Tice is a weapons-grade moron.

One 2m FT8 decode from IK5ZQC. Had fleeting hopes it might have been SpE, but highly unlikely at this time of year. Must have been Meteor Scatter with one unusually long burst... #hamradio

Starmer's attempt to play both sides has failed. He tried to look tough on Trump, but failed to condemn the illegal attack.

Then he let US bombers pit stop here.

He's dragged us into the war, and still managed to damage our reputation with the USA in the process.

Over 1000 civilians dead, and we're letting Trump use UK bases to further his war.

Britain should stand firm against Trump's illegal warmongering, and stop these bombers landing on UK soil.

While we’re at it, maybe it’s time to finally stop arming israel too?

OMG the bloody RAC. Received my breakdown cover renewal notice - cost *more than doubled* compared to last year. Rang them to complain and - to be fair - they massively reduced the premium back down to what I considered a reasonable amount. You have to watch these companies like a hawk!

Got them all, except the missing spindle from the bike wheel. I wondered about one child wearing a rain coat, and one not!

If your policy is to defend the neoliberal nightmare at any cost, I can see how any form of change looks like "the same".

Reform offers a corporatist totalitarian nosedive that mirrors MAGA. Neoliberalism married to nihilism.

The Greens offer democracy unshackled from corporatism. People power.

What a truly awful scrote…the cruelty appears to be the point

Left can't resist being on wrong side of a war Whether it's Jeremy Corbyn or Zack Polanski, their foreign policy stances terrify voters outside core supporters

Well, here’s the thing about being antiwar as an ethical belief: it means you end up opposing most wars. Almost all of them, in fact. This is quite common in people who have consistent beliefs but looks insane to people who have none, or mostly just believe superior people should make the decisions.

South East Water faces £22m fine for supply failures The firm was unable to cope during high demand, Ofwat says, leading to

This is one of those things where the fine sounds like a big number

…but scratch the surface you’ll realise they already carry £1.3 billion of debt (privatised with zero debt back in the day) - and they’ll just hike bills to cover this £22m too

Utter crooks

Be interested in thoughts on this. At present I really can't see the value of it as it's (I think) 6dB less sensistive than FT8. Yes, it appears to be a lot faster, but what's the value in completing QSOs faster? I guess in a contest situation, but I don't do contests. #hamradio

Do not allow the USA to use British military bases for strikes on Iran, and give MPs a vote in Parliament. I just signed the campaign calling to tell Prime Minister Keir Starmer: do not allow the USA to use British military bases for strikes on Iran

Mm - the most important direction is the way to leave?? 😀

Now the luvvies flock to the greens! Lifelong labour voter Paloma faith says Zack Polanski is exactly what we need

The Daily Fail having a go at me and Paloma - camp!

I feel confident that the sort of people who moved to Dubai to avoid paying tax would say that those fleeing war in other countries are not our concern and they should seek refuge in a neighbouring country. In this case I’d suggest Iran, which they can reach by small boat.

Keir Starmer when you were running for Labour leader you promised to introduce this legislation to stop the UK being dragged into illegal wars - it's time to show you were serious about that.

Daily Mail headline: IRAN WAR: DAY FOUR U.S. lambasts 'hand-wringing, pearl-clutching' Starmer as Kemi says he's 'scared' of his own voters

The Sun: INACTION THIS DAY PM wont hit Iran back Rift grows with US Prez

Have we woken up in America? The deeply unpatriotic Daily Mail and Sun seem to now be supporting a menace of a foreign leader over our own govt and national security. They are really only loyal to their own vested interests. Which are a direct threat to our own. The routine betrayal is sickening.

The choice is stark. Reform are the party of foreign wars and high bills.

The Greens want de-escalation and energy security through renewables. Solar and wind prices don't fluctuate when rogue US presidents launch illegal bombing campaigns.

The events of the past 48 hours have laid bare Keir Starmer's utter inability to stand up to Donald Trump - and this weakness could have serious consequences for the safety of British people.

A weak Prime Minister, dragging us all into an illegal war.

This needs to stop.

UK to allow US to use British bases for defensive strikes against Iran Keir Starmer says decision is due to Iran’s approach becoming more reckless and putting British lives at risk

Guardian: "Zack Polanski, speaking earlier, said the US action amounted to an “illegal and unprovoked attack”."

Have to agree. A defensive position is arguable, but allowing US to use UK bases to attack (in defence?). Starmer is incorrect. Pandering to the right

Just listening to Kuennsberg interviewing Zack Polanski ...... someone needs to remind her that the idea that a murderous despot and we criminal like Netanyahu can be a beacon for peace and stability in the Middle East is worse than risible.
