Oh for the good old days when every editorial board in America LOUDLY demanded the Clintons shut down their charitable organization for fear it would be used to curry favor w/Hillary if she became President 🙃

It would be a grave underestimation of the threat level if Musk is seen as a one man show as this guardian headline suggests: “Elon Musk is becoming a one-man rogue state – it’s time we reined him in” The first oligarchic regime in the U.S. should he properly called Trump-Musk administration.

Elon Musk is becoming a one-man rogue state – it’s time we reined him in | Alexander Hurst

He has bankrolled elections, stoked riots and ignored laws. We mustn’t make the mistake of playing nice with the world’s richest bully, says Guardian Europe columnist Alexander Hurst

Any folk who turned up, like me, for the Wolfgang Flür / Peter Duggal gig at the Zumhof, Digbeth, Birmingham; I have been informed that the gig was called off by the promoter due to technical difficulties. Ticket holders should have apparently been informed yesterday. #Wolfgang #Flür #Zumhof

Is the Birmingham gig still going ahead? Zumhof is in darkness at the moment.

Yesterday marked 50 years after one of the UK's largest unsolved mass murders. In 1974, two bombs went off which killed 21 people and injured 182 others. No justice, no peace? Why hasn’t there been a public inquiry into the 1974 Birmingham bombings? www.birminghamdispatch.co.uk/p/no-justice...

50 years after the Birmingham bombings, and no one is any closer to getting to the truth. The story of why, and how, a public inquiry hasn’t happened

Birmingham, with more green space than any other city in Europe. This is from the excellent online publication The Dispatch, whch can be viewed here: www.birminghamdispatch.co.uk?utm_source=s... Please support them with a subscription if you can.

This is an extract from an article on the history of Birmingham's (UK) greenspace and how it was developed through the Vitorian and Edwardian times to make Birmingham a Tree City of The World, as it has more greenspace than any other European city, standing at 8,000 acres

For all the sound and fury over the fare cap, this is prob a much more important bit of news for the future of buses (though the funding needs to become consistent and reliable). Hopefully this is a down payment on the promise of an end to bid-based funding across all areas of local gvmnt activity.

First heard The Hobbit when they read it on BBC's Jackanory in the late 70s. Read it myself from my Primary school's library when I was about 10, then read Lord of the Rings in early senior school from their library

Humbled to be able to drive trains past both Jodrell Bank and Defford. Have done so for over 20 years and am still intrigued to see which way they are pointing each time.

We spend a lot of time looking up. Our speciality is radio astronomy but we also love the rest of the electromagnetic spectrum, particles and gravitational waves. Still got a lot to learn.

The Lovell Telescope: a 76-metre diameter radio telescope at Jodrell Bank Observatory, Cheshire, UK. The Sun is shining through the steelwork supporting it's giant reflecting bowl.
