There wasn't a social care crisis when local authorities provided the service free of charge. Then Thatcher privatised it and private equity bosses started charging £8000 a month.

Despite being a famous Hollywood star if you want to know what sort of person DAVID NIVEN was, the largest wreath at his funeral was from the Porters at Heathrow Airport. It read: “To the finest gentleman who ever walked through these halls. He made a Porter feel like a King.”

Liz Truss doesn't know the difference between the Black Sea and the Baltic Sea. She knocked £425bn off the value of pension fund assets. She thinks Tony Blair set up the Bank of England. And major companies pay her £80,000 a speech for her insights on politics and economics.

I have just found out it is Equilux in the UK today when day and night are closest to being equal. Here are two photos I took on the same day in Warwickshire last year at around 7am & 7pm, 2 days after Equilux 2025. #Sunrise #Sunset #Equilux #Autumn #Fall #Scape #Skyscape #Landscape #Warwickshire
I took these to photos at the farm we occasionally stay at on 27th September 2025.
Today, as we had a misty start, there was no chance of a sunrise!
Equinox happened this year on 23rd September but Equilux is more precise in the 50/50 night/day balance.

A warm, morning glow over the snow-capped, chiselled peaks of Adelaide Island.  A bit of dark cloud to the left adds a little drama.  The seas is quite calm here of the southern tip of 
Adelaide Island, Antarctica.  At 67° South, we are below the Antarctic Circle, where very few expedition-style ships venture; this boat only makes 2 or three runs here per season. A few more degrees south and big ice becomes a real problem …not going!

The orange glow of the sun setting just behind the trees on the left, its reflections glides across lightly ripple water.  Everything is almost as still as the black rock sitting in the Ucluelet harbour, just a meter from me.  Not completely alone, as two others take in Nature's perfectly executed event.

Turns out that if you are an old lady with a banner supporting Palestine, the government arrests you on charges of terrorism. If you are a masked white male thug bringing a national port to a standstill, the government does absolutely nothing, and the media covers it like some lads on a day out.

80 year-olds with pro-Palestine signs: arrested as terrorists. Greens planning to block a road, to highlight an existential crisis: sent down for years. Masked far-right thugs blocking roads and ports, using intimidation, obstruction & threatening behaviour: no arrests. The real two-tier policing.

Picture from my homeland: The beacon of Fenais da Ajuda after sunset. #Stunday #Açores #Azores #Azoren #SãoMiguel #photography #landscape #landscapephotography
The viewer looks out over the almost mirror-smooth Atlantic Ocean towards the sun that has just set. The sky is heavily overcast and displays a play of colours – yellow, red, orange and violet. The sea also reflects the remaining light in a strip that converges towards the viewer. 
On the right is a red-and-white-striped metal pillar with a red flashing light at its top, which is just coming on. Distorted by the wide-angle lens, the beacon appears crooked, though in reality it is, of course, not.

Our rapid disillusionment with political leaders is treated by much of the media as some kind of pathology. But what I see is these leaders backtracking on their promises, dashing people's hopes and serving the ultra-rich ahead of the rest of the population. Why wouldn't we be disillusioned?
