Useful new addition to the excuse manual from #Farage - 'loose pub talk'. Add to the category that includes 'locker room banter'.

Absolutely superb conditions today for saying ‘it doesn’t feel like a Tuesday.’ Say it early, say it often and just have fun with it. It’s a small talk goldmine and you’d be a fool not to get involved.

The Scales ⚖️ @shakethescales.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
Professional wordsmiths at the BBC are mixing up their modal auxiliary verbs, accidentally positioning Reform as a government in waiting. The use of 'will' signals the future tense carrying implied certainty, rather than the hypothetical scenario suggested by 'would.' www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Reform says it will prioritise British-born young workers for social housing
Labour called the plan "unserious and unworkable" and accused Reform of pushing "gimmicks and division".

This must be the third video of wonderful voices singing global scales I have seen, and each is mesmerising and has taught me things I didn't know. Such as: That these scales exist and how they, the bare backbone of tunes, reflect and unlock whole world regions' music. This is amazing.

McDonalds will tell you that the public have a feverish desire for burgers & no other types of food, because that's all they've decided to churn out. Don't let the press tell you that the public want racism & transphobia & bullying & hate just because that's all they know how to cook any more.

A shirtless white man, in the street with a knife in his hand, having attacked and wounded five people, allegedly shouting anti-Muslim slogans is the sixth story on the BBC UK news page. There is absolutely no doubt at all this would be the lead story if attacker and intended victims were reversed.
