I used to do underwater photography using slide film. Given the complexity and unpredictable environment the wildlife and that staying alive thing you’d be lucky to get 1 good shot from a roll of 36. And only realise that after days of processing. But one or two were the best things I’ve ever done.

ASLs will be the death of me! For the record I have instructed my next of kin to make political furore if I do become dead or incapacitated by these, to the point of dumping my dead body at the feet of the designers and anyone signing off this trap.

French finance minister Roland Lescure has invited the UK to “come all the way back” to the EU, after Andy Burnham raised the prospect: "If they’re willing to come back, they will have to decide. But what I can tell them is: come back, anytime."

Andy Burnham's proposals are sadly incoherent. It's unpopular to say this. But you cannot want a National Care Service and an end to rough sleeping while making huge, detrimental changes to the immigration system. The Earned Settlement proposals need to be scrapped. Sign our petition.

Listening to @gavinesler.bsky.social talking to Stephen Sackur on @thisisnotadrillpod.bsky.social yesterday, it was revealing that so many investigative journalists were women. Anna got a special mention.

Today marks 20 years since Novaya Gazeta journalist Anna Politkovskaya was murdered in Moscow. She recognized Putin's true nature earlier than most—and the regime could never erase the truth she died to tell.

📢 Tories have pledged to abolish Natural England & Environment Agency. A year ago I flagged both as highly exposed to political interference. They've been weakened by yrs of cuts & loss of autonomy. Abolition removes scrutiny but doesn't fix problems christinapagel.substack.com/p/abolishing...

Abolishing our independent public bodies removes scrutiny without fixing the underlying problem

A vulnerability we highlightd a year ago is now Conservative policy

True enough, the other probable scenario is that they’re too busy being sea sick and soiling themselves to even consider the question you’re asking.

We need government ministers raising this in media interviews, announcing and pushing major vaccination drives, until this is resolved. Where is the government on this while children are dying? They're nowhere to be seen. www.gov.uk/government/n...

I was once asked a very difficult question by an older family friend, the same age of my parents. I can't remember the question or the answer I gave. But thanking me he "said, I knew if I asked you for advice I'd always get a no bullshit honest and authoritative answer" I'll take that.

There’s no simple answer to this. It’s almost a circular argument as you suggest. I’ve tried everything from the success of retail to KSI figures, nothing seems to get through.

Exactly this. Indeed as I have recently demonstrated in an urban environment overtaking a cyclist averaging 12mph + is a completely fruitless exercise as they WILL catch you up at the next set of lights. (warning - turn the sound off or down) bsky.app/profile/madm...

That's true, one of them, an outsider of the group, was on the opposite side and was thoughtful and open minded. He didn't leave with the others when they rode off. and we stayed and chatted for a while.

I had this story repeated to me, along with other racist reform tropes, in real life the other day by a group of Geordie Bikers (the motor kind not the pedal kind) outside the coffee stall on the Fish Quay the other day. What shocked me most was the sheer lack of humanity in any of them or arguments

I'm not in any overtly political groups so I'm keeping out of commenting directly on the motion itself. As far as I can see there's way too much ignorance being expressed as facts by EVERYONE.
