Tonight we went to see The Odyssey at the Science Museum, but the cooling system was broken so the show was called off 😢 So we went up the road to see how Albert was doing. 🫅 But he seemed lost in thought, so we went back to Sth Ken and consoled ourselves with gelato. 🍨

Golden hour in a North London park

Evening in a park just before sunset. The bottom third is orange brown grass. Halfway up is a line of trees bordering a cemetery. Above the sky is pale blue with a long grey cloud topped with creamy reflected sunlight.

I wonder if the simultaneous incidents in this BBC headline were related in any way.

This says a lot about Starmer's world view. So long as it serves *him* well.

He added: “I am the British prime minister and my job is to be absolutely focused on what is in the British national interest. That has served me well in recent weeks and that is the principle that I will continue to adhere to as we go forward taking difficult decisions.”

This is my grandfather aged about 23 and looking uncannily like I did in the 1970s. He later worked in Islington at an electric lamp factory where the lamps were blown by hand.

Did you know there is a beautiful natural park within a 10-minute walk of Kings X St Pancras and the British Library. Run by the London Wildlife Trust. No dogs, alcohol or glassware in the park itself, but a very nice café with views of the canal. www.wildlondon.org.uk/nature-reser...

Here is the full blurb. open.spotify.com/episode/5TbK...

In this powerful episode recorded at the Dalkey Book Festival, we sit down with Israeli historian Avi Shlaim, whose memoir The Memoirs of an Arab Jew weaves together the personal and political. Born in Baghdad and expelled to Israel, Shlaim dismantles the dominant Zionist narrative and shares a forgotten story: that of the Arab Jews, rooted in the Middle East for millennia, fluent in Arabic, and often alienated in the state built in their name.
Shlaim explores British colonial meddling, the legacy of the Holocaust, and what he calls Israel's transformation from a refuge into a settler-colonial project. He also offers explosive insights into Mossad's alleged role in the exodus of Iraqi Jews. This is a conversation about historical amnesia, and why the trauma of the past can't justify injustice in the present.

I did write in the end saying that my despair had now turned to disgust. I asked her to think about the most spoken second language in the constituency where I live. Starmer is talking about my neighbours.

Most common main language spoken at home in London Boroughs
Not including English and other European languages* (% of London Borough population) 2011 •Turkish is not classed as European for this analysis.

🌱 A few winters ago, we bought some Willow twigs at Columbia Road Market for indoor decoration. Eventually they were put outside in a container in a corner of the garden which promptly filled with water. One twig sprouted a side shoot. I trimmed it and put it in a pot on the deck.

Willow twig with pollen - at least, I think it's pollen.

Zelensky will be too busy and would not be impressed. After the war maybe. Trump, on the other hand, will still want to go ahead and this will give us leverage which, despite our outrage, we still need in the interests of Ukraine as much as ourselves.

Is that independent of common sense or common decency? You had better come up with some bloody good explanation of your behaviour, because right now I ain't buying it.
