They're laughing at ordinary working people, the bees and puffins. They get together at dinner parties, quaffing nectar and ethically caught sandeels, and they mock Sir Winston, call you flagshaggers, and LAUGH AT YOU.

Anna's work opened my eyes more than a decade ago. If you can find her books, buy and read them. That is the best way to honour her legacy.

If the main thing you want to do right now is to read a long, rambling, angry response by a non-Zionist Jewish now ex-Green Party Of England And Wales member to the not-so-hilarious antics of yesterday, then have I got the post for you: wayne.conniptions.org/2026/10/05/w... (It may not be, tbf)

🔥 On Mon Oct 12th, MPs will debate the UK applying to join the EU. The responsible govt minister will respond. This is not a vote - but it’s the first time since the Burnham speech on “options” that we’ll see where the MPs actually stand. #Rejoin #EU #AndyBurnham #UKpolitics #Brexit

Just so dispiriting to watch the Greens be corrupted by the same poison that took over Labour. All the same shit: the excuses, the mealy-mouthed justifications, the tortured position statements, the deafening silences. Like a historical reenactment.

Another attack overnight on a tanker in the Strait of Hormuz. This is the 6th attack this week, and still getting almost no coverage!! The human price for transiting the Strait seems to be being priced into business costs.

More evidence of UK economy’s strong first half to the year, despite the very real impact of the Iran war: - ONS have revised up growth (and gdp/capita growth) in Q2 to 0.5% - confirms the UK as the fastest growing economy in the G7 in 2026 (given growth of 0.6% in Q1)

I have spent the last few days watching rather than writing about #TheHormuzCrisis. There has been movement, but not enough to justify forcing events into my old scenario model. I think we are now in a different phase of the crisis, and I have been building an analysis model for what comes next.

All day Piddington's womminfolk have been telling news how they will be terrified of "hundreds of young men nearby, free to come and go as they please." NOT ONE JOURNALIST has asked: "How did you cope when it was an army base? Who came and went then? Nuns?" Soon as you ask that, all becomes clear.
