I get the appeal of nostalgia, I really do, but I find it specifically funny to get a leaflet from Reform's candidate talking about how when he was in the Met 31 years ago, he would never have dreamed of lawlessness like the kind we now see in Kings Cross.

hold up - will confidently interject on any subject, often with significant errors - can't actually read, instead relies on an elaborate method of parsing context through structure & likely words - looks financially impressive, actually built on huge amounts of unsustainable debt

Okay Kushner, let's apply that same logic to Iran. They want a nuke, control of both straits, and to maintain their close ties to Hezbollah and Hamas. That is Iran's line of what they want to achieve. If the US and Israel, you know, wanted to withdraw to that line...

The Raglan, E17. Great local, delicious food, always feels warm and welcoming. The Jackalope, W1G. Great rotating beer selection, incredible Szechuan-style noodles downstairs. The Pembury Tavern, E8. Now a 5 Points pub, still got the old billiards table, and maybe the best pizza in London, Ace.

The least likely pundit-brain call/prediction is for Sadiq Khan to immediately quit the House of Lords, to run in a Westminster by-election, to trigger a London Mayoral by-election! He would not want to. The Labour NEC would obvs not sanction it either.

Hello from Northern Spain #eclipse

A total solar eclipse hangs low over a rural Spanish landscape, the dark disc of the Moon surrounded by the Sun’s glowing corona. Hazy evening light washes across rolling fields and distant hills, with scattered trees and a solitary church silhouetted beneath the eclipsed Sun.

This is in essence a class thing. “Soccer” originated as a counter-term to “rugger” among the upper classes, and “football” is predominantly an everyman sport. So it’s forren *and* posh.

Most Londoners pass a river, brook or canal without thinking much about it. But what if it was cleaner? Greener? Easier to access? Better for wildlife? That's exactly what we're working towards across ten waterways in London.

I went in re a fungal nail infection. Clearly a young/new dr. While there I was offered a free chlamydia test so I said sure. After this was rung through, a senior dr burst in almost in hysterics and asked if I’d been to Africa “because it could be bilharzia”. I had not. I had a gammy toenail.
