Amazing. National trust: Please don’t put stones on this ecological site. Power company: underground electricity cable is cool right?

There are several parts of this story that speak to a deep policy failure. observer.co.uk/news/nationa... This is a real example of the type of slippery slope policy that makes slippery slope arguments so appealing. “It’s only 3k” “it’s only 9k” well now it’s over 200 thousand.

Whilst the Labour Party goes into a meltdown about its inability to get behind its leader or elect a new one. I am reminded of the void left by Twitter, where i would have once watched this all play out. It would’ve been statements on there and seeing who liked what. All gone now.

This is why his time is up. He can’t direct a cabinet.

I was really worrying ahead of May 7th, I felt like Labour weren’t putting forward a political vision for the country and leaving it wide open to reform and populism. But then. As if from nowhere. The answer to all of our prayers. Dropshipped CLP “merch”. Electoral victory here we come!

@stephenkb.bsky.social random one. I’m chatting with some other Labour members about how bad Keir is doing, and I’m sure I saw you write something about how he wasn’t meeting or firing ministers personally, have I fever dreamed that?

My favourite thing about the AWS outage is some people writing on Bluesky with true sincerity “we shouldn’t put all our eggs in one basket”. Or even better listing which services are down. If they were all in one basket you wouldn’t be able to tell me. And it would be everything.

I just panicked I was missing a teams call before I realised a wood pigeon in the distance sounds a lot like the dialling sound on teams. My realisation of this feels like a damming indictment of remote work.

@stephenkb.bsky.social reading your morning newsletter was fascinating, because it made me reconsider what the success metrics were of rail and privatisation. For me it’s not running on time, it’s cost of tickets. I’m assuming that consolidating multiple companies into one limits overhead and…

Now that Trump is back, I can’t help but wonder how he’ll leave. Will this term end like normal? In two years will there be a Republican primary? It’s what makes his order challenging birthright citizenship the most important one of all. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

One of the most fascinating things about the right is how they just do not take representative democracy seriously. As much as I politically disagree with Chelmsfords Lib Dem MP, you can’t deny her really connecting with her constituency. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Listening to a bunch of podcasts analysing the trump win, and hearing the idea repeatedly that the Democrats need to focus less on LGBTQ+ issues. I think this is the wrong take. Being socially progressive is “baked in” to voting for left wing parties at the moment, you dont have to abandon…
