Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 2hMy favourite fact of Celebrity Traitors 2 is that former spouses of both Rupert Murdoch and Rebekah Brooks are in it. The money doesn’t last long. 1283
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 10hThey’ve finally started on this 9-storey wooden building in Clerkenwell. “The largest full timber structure in the UK”. 010
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 01/10/2026Today I bought yet another replacement toilet seat for the office. I also went to the Impressionists exhibition at the Royal Academy. And tonight it’s Celebrity Traitors. I should keep a diary. 150
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 01/10/2026Worth reading if only for the line "He is also close with the boxer Mike Tyson, with whom he shares a love of pigeons". 010
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 01/10/2026The City is having one of its October wobbles just in time for Healey’s first budget. 100
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 29/09/2026Brave of Burnham to say he’s going to fight the next election on changing the voting system, axing the triple lock and raising taxes, with three years for the opposition and media to scaremonger about it all. Well he can tell you that he tried. 012
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 28/09/2026Saw Diane Morgan carrying a cardboard box in Holborn today and my immediate thought was “robot”. 180
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 28/09/2026Looks like we can downgrade this one from "terrorism" to "fuel theft". 130
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 27/09/2026The fact that “Choosin’ Texas” has spent 23 weeks at number 1 in the US during the same year as “Rein Me In” spent 23 weeks at number 1 in the UK with so many people being unaware of either song shows that counting streams is no way to judge the popularity of music. 130
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 27/09/2026Burnham trying to make the next election about tax. Makes things easy for Badenoch, but which way will Farage jump? 000
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 26/09/2026“Losing yourself is better than finding yourself”. The final Soft Cell album sees them ending up in the right place. 000
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 26/09/2026Three caterpillars on the organic broccoli tonight. A new record. I’ve released them into the wilds of King’s Cross. The other excitement of the day was when I shut my head in the car door during a very stressful visit to the petrol station. At least I won’t have to go there for another year or so. 220
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 26/09/2026Saw a very serious play about Shostakovich last night. During the interval they played “Push the Button” by Sugababes, which somewhat broke the spell for me. 010
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 26/09/2026Saturday morning and three fire engines arrive at the student halls of residence as the freshers attempt to cook their first breakfasts away from home. 030
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 25/09/2026Two exciting campaign leaflets today for the Holborn & St Pancras by-election. George Galloway wants to end support for Zelensky and abolish 20mph speed limits; the Christian Peoples Alliance focuses on St Pancras himself, who it says was beheaded age 14 following a family breakdown. Much to ponder. 450
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 24/09/2026When Blondie were in dispute with their record company they released a song under the band name Adolph's Dog, a reference to the fact that Hitler's dog was called Blondi. Simpler, less squeamish times. 030
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 23/09/2026It is extremely annoying that you can’t have a drink at a football match, especially as a lot of people there are already pissed having spent six hours in a pub beforehand. Also a few votes in lifting the ban. 000
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 23/09/2026A man in a passing white van shouted “Vote Reform” at me, people emailed and phoned to tell me how great AI is and all the toilets at the office are blocked. Just a perfect day, you made me forget myself. 0100
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 22/09/2026Tonight’s theatre was an intimate exploration of loneliness and orifices. 430
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 22/09/2026A Restore Britain leaflet has arrived. The entire thing is an attack on Reform for not being sufficiently right wing. 220
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 21/09/2026If you’ve ever enjoyed Big Brother the new one is worth your time. 110
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 21/09/2026The BBC censoring its old output is just another symptom of its weakness. Stick a content warning on it if you must. “It was a different time”, “We didn’t know he was doing that sort of thing then” or whatever, but it happened. Own it and stand up for yourselves while you still can. 151
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 21/09/2026Poll card (formerly known as polling card) has arrived. 030
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 19/09/2026The handle fell off my teacup last night and now I can trust nothing. 020
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 19/09/202670 Up’s two messages seem to be that it all goes by so bloody fast and that life is so much easier if you’re born rich. Not original ideas, but it really drives them home. 030
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 19/09/2026If that tax avoiding billionaire hates the UK so much he should give back his knighthood. 020

Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 17/09/2026The RNLI stuff annoys me so much I keep imagining suitable punishments for the ‘protestors”. They’re making me almost as bad as they are. 160
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 17/09/2026I keep seeing the headline “Hyrox athlete apologises for continuing race after soiling herself” so I’ve cracked and looked up “Hyrox” and frankly it’s a wonder any of them ever manage to finish the event without soiling themselves. 200
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 17/09/2026Just received a letter sent recorded delivery from the Italian police. It seems to say something like go directly to jail, do not pass Go and do not collect £200. 430
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 15/09/2026I saw a Restore Britain poster up on a front door in King’s Cross this afternoon. There was also a ripped up Zack Polanski leaflet on the steps of the same house. And now we’ve got George Galloway throwing his hat in to the ring. I’m not sure I’m enjoying being in a by-election seat. 2100

Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 13/09/2026AI moguls saying “AI development needs to slow down” makes me think that these companies are worried investors are about to discover they don’t have much to show for the billions they’ve been persuaded to sink into them. 110

Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 12/09/2026As a perfectly normal well-adjusted child, what I was scared of when I was about three was the “egg man” from the Beatles song “I Am The Walrus”. I used to dream that there was another version of me, but egg-shaped with a shell. I’d like to thank my parents and John Lennon for this horror. 150
Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 11/09/2026Went to see the Bayeux Tapestry. It is amazing and moving, unlike the endless queues. 141

Rob Bingham @robbingham.eurosky.social · 10/09/2026Looking at the government front bench at yesterday's PMQs it was striking how much of the Miliband shadow cabinet from 2015 is back in place - Burnham, Miliband, Cooper, Alexander, Eagle and Powell all there. It's missing Balls, Hunt and Khan, but they're all still doing OK for themselves. 110
