connect your family calendars and explain your kids' interests.
every morning for the drive to school, have it make a podcast that talks about one kid's soccer game that afternoon, one kid's upcoming birthday, some news, etc.

Oh dear. It seems that my local Reform councillor doesn’t grasp that they are my representative on the Council for all issues I encounter in the city, and not just ones falling within their ward. Not that I expected any better.

Dr Ellie Chowns MP @elliechowns.bsky.social · 14/05/2026
Despite it being obvious that the time of two-party politics is over, the govt laid out no plans to introduce a fairer voting system in the King's Speech. That's why Green MPs tabled an amendment on the need to bring in proportional representation and make every voice heard.
A screenshot of the Parliamentary Order Paper for 14/5/26. Text reads "1. King’s Speech (Motion for an Address): Adjourned Debate [13 May]

Until 5.00pm (Standing Order No. 9(3))

Proposed subject for debate: Getting Britain working again

That an humble Address be presented to His Majesty, as follows:

Most Gracious Sovereign, We, Your Majesty’s most dutiful and loyal subjects, the Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, in Parliament assembled, beg leave to offer our humble thanks to Your Majesty for the Gracious Speech which Your Majesty has addressed to both Houses of Parliament." Underneath that further text reads "Amendment (b)

Dr Ellie Chowns

Siân Berry

Adrian Ramsay

Carla Denyer

Hannah Spencer

At end add ‘but respectfully regret that the Gracious Speech fails to include measures to introduce proportional representation for all national and local elections before the next General Election.’"

When there’s a fuel shortage they tell you to turn down your radiators and boilers. Those with cash don’t. People in poverty have no choice and leave them low forever. Prolonged underheating causes mold and awful health complications. Being able to turn it back up is not a mistake IT’S THE POINT.
