I'm in love with how the citizens of Seoul are responding to the Instagram question from the city architecture biennale about the idea of relocating Thomas Heatherwick's huge wall of information to a loved public park. I'm so glad the feeling for him crosses continents.

A cautious welcome by Palestinians for the UK’s moderate sanctions comes with concerns that they may have come too late That they matter is shown by Israel’s hysterical reaction; as though the world can continue to tut tut about settler violence but should DO nothing www.newarab.com/opinion/afte...

As the UK sanctions West Bank settlements, Israeli politicians and the lobby are weaponising antisemitism to defend the occupation and evade accountability.

Being Pimped By The Billionaires For Genocide Is A Bad Look - PopularResistance.Org
It is hard not to be excited at the very public shaming of a major celebrity, pop star Ed Sheeran, over his agreement to remove a friend and support act, Macklemore, from his current US tour. During his set, Macklemore spoke out eloquently against Israel’s genocide in Gaza. This feels like a very belated turning-point. During the three years of Israel’s atrocities in Gaza, the corporate world has maintained its grip over the West’s cultural spaces – in part, to conceal its own complicity in those crimes. Now that chokehold has been exposed – and it looks every bit as ugly as, indeed, it is.

British "democracy" is an empty husk, hollowed out by a grossly unrepresentative voting system and mega-donors who have captured the political class. Now in power, Burnham has scrapped a commitment to electoral reform and is ditching a pledge to cap political donations. 🤔

I have written to the Cabinet Secretary to seek assurances that the Prime Minister’s Chief of Staff, who was lobbying for the privatised water industry until recently, has had no involvement in talks about the future of Thames Water.
25th August 2026
Dear Antonia,
It is reported in the media today that the Prime Minister has ‘shelved’ plans to take Thames Water into administration.
As is well known, the Chief of Staff in Downing Street James Purnell was until his appointment, the Chief Executive of Flint Global, whose clients it is widely reported include members of the privatised water industry, and Thames Water’s bondholders. 
The Times reports that the Prime Minister has been ‘advised by officials’ not to go ahead with special administration. In addition to James Purnell, can you confirm that no other officials involved in this process have links to the privatised water industry, and have accepted no hospitality from anyone associated with or acting on behalf of members of the water industry, including Flint Global, post the departure of James Purnell. 
It is especially concerning that the Times reports that the Prime Minister has listened to advice that even the half measure of temporary special administration would be costly and run into legal issues. Of course, this is what advisers and lobbyists for the privatised water industry will be saying and it is the ‘advice’ James Purnell would have been making weeks ago, It is also highly unlikely to be true, given the repeated catastrophic failures of Thames Water, including polluted rivers, sky high bills and water shortages, Thames Water could be taken into public ownership right now and Thames Water would not have a legal leg to stand on.
The public and I expect a proper explanation for this decision, including an update to parliament at the first possible time, and assurances that James Purnell has had nothing at all to

Year of after-school care now costs £2,800 a child in parts of UK
Bills have jumped 42% in England over the past 10 years – and that excludes the cost of breakfast clubs and extracurricular activities Parents of primary schoolchildren in England will pay 42% more for after-school childcare this year than they did 10 years ago, with annual bills now exceeding more than £2,800 a child in some parts of the UK. A Guardian analysis of data collected by the children’s charity Coram has revealed that the annual cost of after-school care for children aged 5 to 11 in England has risen by 5% over the past year to £2,636.
