Two Wainwrights achieved, plus an 'outlying Wainwright', lake circuits and fell walks, a fitness app that thinks I've become Wonder Woman 🤣 and quite possibly one of the most stunning pictures I've ever taken #LakeDistrict you were amazing 😍

If you grew up with #Coyote, #RoadRunner and #LooneyTunes like me, you'll love this. Corny, sweet and funny and sooo much nostalgia. #Beepbeep #Acme #CoyotevsAcme

Watching clips of some wonderful reveals at #SDCC but this is the winner 😍 with the added joy that @greatdismal.bsky.social approves 😊 Read #Neuromancer straight out of school and it's still a favourite 40 years on. Can't wait to see #AppleTV adaptation #Sprawltrilogy

Funnily enough I don't remember Andrew ever expressing these concerns the last four times a Conservative MP became Prime Minister outside of a general election.

You'd think the intelligence services having to raise the national terror threat level because of a surge in Nazi terrorism might have been a bigger story

Please read this, understand what the govt is doing & take action. Labour's immigration proposals swap integration for segregation, introduce a Dubai-style Kafala system of coercive employer control & drive low-income families into poverty. They're an abomination. open.substack.com/pub/wewanted...

Perhaps a rethink on traffic rules on pedestrianised areas late at night too? They're great... until you face a long walk to transport home, whether that's a lift, a taxi or a bus.

I first used Rocket and Rolls for my 50th, they saw me through many Covid events with their boxed afternoon teas and they've just catered for my 60th. Wonderful company, delicious food 🤣

As ever the opposite is the case. What they're all arguing for here is dominance over Muslims. Dominance over a religious minority's right to worship, to freely assemble, to be visible, and to exist as equal members of British society. The complete opposite of what Britain fought for in World War 2

Trump's decision to bomb Iran is now the greatest windfall to the Russian war effort on record. If it continues, it might save the Russian war economy.

Kind of incredible. I was just sitting down to write about how Starmer should be given credit for keeping us out of this mess when he does this. Unutterably foolish and obsequious. Why in God's name should we have anything to do with this shortsighted madness.

It remains stunning, that throughout all of this, the Royal Family have never confirmed who exactly paid for the payoff nor why, exactly, they stripped Andrew of his titles. Parliament hasn’t thought to ask either.

The system we have now quite literally embeds the income and wealth inequalities HE is supposed to alleviate. It is outrageous and incredible that a progressive govt could describe it in any way as “fair.” Too many senior politicians today think we have Plan 1 loans. They just don’t understand it.

Spoke to Shleagh Fogarty yesterday sbout why the Chancellor is wrong: our “student loan” system is not remotely fair. It’s regressive and embedding inter and intra generational wealth inequality. It’s not a loan system, it’s a bad grad tax in all but name. youtu.be/uOC6Arrf2us?...

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

The defection of Suella Braverman, who was sacked twice from Government in disgrace, spent £700m of taxpayers' money to send four volunteers to Rwanda on a deportation scheme that was then scrapped and has a public approval rating of minus 32 is currently being described as a "major coup" for Reform

We are opening an investigation into Grok because we believe that X may have breached the DSA. We have seen antisemitic content, non-consensual deepfakes of women, and child sexual abuse material. In Europe, no company will make money by violating our fundamental rights. link.europa.eu/Fh8h84
