Liar. Small boat crossings peaked under Johnson in 2022 reaching 46,000 in 2022. In current year they are 18,565 and falling. Also prior to Boris Johnson's Brexit there were none.
It's a disaster, and it can all be traced to
Labour ideology. Burnham has no mandate
from the people. He has no real ideas, and
no plan,

First Man. 2018. Rewatch. Man I do like this film. Some of the best realised flight/space sequences ever. I also love Howard's Apollo 13 but this is less Hollywood, more naturalistic and all the better for it. Chazelle is a fine, versatile director. #jimsfilmreviews

If you're in government watching criminal-led blackshirt thugs in balaclavas wage war on the RNLI and you're hedging your bets because you're not sure who the majority of the country will side with, why do you even want to be in government? Why would you WANT to lead people you think so little of?

I’m never afraid to say when I disagree with Trump, but I also occasionally given 3 women in their 20s cash gifts totaling $150,000 even though I’m married to a different woman who, like me, is decades older than them. This is just more lamestream noise. Do better.

Mandalorian and Grogu. TV. The TV series was hit and miss, with Grogu being the best bits. It made the Mandalorians seem like cultish idiots, and had too much fan service, so if it ain't fixed...felt like a TV special, not a movie. #jimsfilmreviews

Superman (2025). TV. Okay enough, nowt special. Definitely CGI fatigue sets in with these films. Don't like the suit. The Justice Gang were more interesting than Supes. Will probably never watch again. #jimsfilmreviews

@footballweekly.bsky.social bit late to the transfer talk. Saw a list of the British transfer records and it made me think, who was the last British record transfer that was genuinely the best at their role at that time? Shearer? Nistelrooy? Ferdinand? Because I don't feel it is Enzo Fernandez.

What I love about that six word Hemingway story, "For sale: baby shoes, never worn" is that in those few words we instantly grasp the sadness of what it is trying to tell us: the baby was so freakishly massive when it was born that it could never wear the shoes its parents had bought for it.

Not sure we're fully commiting to this, but after finishing all the Wainwrights, we ticked off 6 Birketts today. We worked out we've already done about half, just leaves 280 or so. #wainwrights #birketts #lakedistrict

Fallen Leaves. 2023. TV. Lovely little Aki Kaurismäki film, with the signature dead pan, dry humour. Makes me want to rewatch Leningrad Cowboys. #jimsfilmreviews

There's a 4 part making of Robocop on Amazon Prime that's not bad. On part 3. My wife has suggested this might be too much 'making of Robocop'. #robocop

Furiosa : A Mad Max Saga. TV. Enjoyable romp. The convoy battles are great, as is Hemsworth. This is not a film for subtlety in direction or acting, and all power to it. Preferred it to Fury Road. #jimsfilmreviews #furiosa

Gladiator 2. Netflix. Unnecessary sequel. Same repeated story beats as the original but far less engaging or emotionally involving. Too many call backs to the first film just highlighted the quality drop off. #jimsfilmreviews #gladiator2

The Odyssey (2026) IMAX Some thoughts. Good but not great. I don't think being on IMAX added anything to it, not like Interstellar which blew me away on IMAX. Suffered like Tenet did with a disconnect from the main character, needed more character building between Odysseus and his men. #theodyssey

Superman (78) is on TV, and it just reminds me what a streak John Wiliams was on, of such iconic themes that are etched into my being, and popular culture. Jaws 75, Star Wars 77, CE3K 77, Superman 78, Raiders OTLA 81, E.T. 82. Also Reeves is the best Supes. #johnwilliams
