Happy weekend! 🦔 ❤️ Here’s a lovely ancient Egyptian blue faience hedgehog made some 3,800 years ago! Neues Museum, Berlin 📷 by me #Archaeology
My photo shows a small ancient Egyptian turquoise-coloured blue faience hedgehog figurine, shown in 3/4 profile facing right. Dimensions: Height x width x depth: 5 x 5.5 x 9.3 cm. It has a rounded body densely covered with small raised pointed spines each of which are emphasised with black paint. It has a small wide face with a pointed snout. The snout has a small chip at the end. The eyes are highlighted with black pigment. It has relatively long oval-shaped ears, either side of the face. It has short stubby front legs. It sits on a pale display case surface at the Neues Museum in Berlin.

A 2,300-year-old silver container in the shape of a scallop-shell decorated with an octopus 🐙 It may once have held cosmetics. From Paternò, Sicily. Altes Museum, Berlin 📷 by me #Archaeology
My photo shows a silver shell-shaped container with an eight-armed octopus in relief at the centre of the lid. The arms of the octopus curl outwards across the ridges of the shell’s surface. This ornate shell container has a hinged lid and may once have been a cosmetic container . It is displayed on a clear stand in a museum case. Dimensions: 13.3 × 13.2 × 3 cm. It is part of the Silver Treasure from Paternò, Sicily, a hoard discovered in 1909, consisting of tableware and toiletries. Dated 4th-3rd century BC.

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,

My wife has been on a news & social media blackout since last year, so every now and then I drop a little context-free morsel of How It’s Going. The other day it was “Tetris has threatened the White House, that’s where we’re at now.”
Screenshot of an Instagram post from the official Tetris account.
“At Tetris we believe in the power of connection and bringing people together, not dividing them. To our fans everywhere: we love you, we see you, and we're grateful to have you in our community.”

I find it baffling that Labour does not seem to get this. By equivocating on such a core issue, they’re making their own voters unsure about the core values of the party / government and hence more susceptible to voting for someone else.

So, if I understand Nigel Farage's argument correctly it is: "Everyone I trusted and elevated into a position of responsibility is constantly doing crimes that benefit me but of which I somehow have no knowledge. I am a man with the character, judgement, and intelligence to run the country." Ok.
