martinjs.bsky.social @martinjs.bsky.social · 08/06/2026On the rather wet dog walk this morning I listened to Radio 4 Today programme (I know!)… thought it was a Yes Minister episode (the one about rigging questionnaires): Which would you prefer as you by election choice: ‘… a slick politician…’ Or ‘…. a fresh voice…’ Talk about a leading question! 010

martinjs.bsky.social @martinjs.bsky.social · 19/03/2026Well, I claim no expertise but a cockapoo can have poodle & spaniel parents or cockapoo parents. If the latter (as has ours) you of course could get more cocka than poo or vice versa … two of our dogs’ siblings looked very spaniel-like. 100

martinjs.bsky.social @martinjs.bsky.social · 15/03/2025Good to see the discussion re moving to a Royal College & re union role etc. I think we need a strong & respected leadership body; excellent unions & trade bodies; an effective modern regulator. 152
