Really struggling with the news of Pac passing. One of the best bell to bell, and I'm totally not biased given he's from the Toon. The Black Arrow was a thing of beauty, and the Bastard getting Orange Cassidy to break character is glorious RIP www.youtube.com/watch?v=7W63...

Our previous home owners had created a "low maintenance" outer environment. Artificial grass and gravel out back. Gravel out front. Over the last two years I replaced the gravel out back with a wildflower patch, and swapped the artificial stuff for a micro-clover lawn.

We don't need to play by Elon Musk's rules. In the Commons yesterday, I commended Lisa Nandy on her decision to leave X and take DCMS off the platform. I left more than a year ago, for reasons that will be familiar to people on BlueSky. I would like to see the whole government follow her lead.

This is the presenter of the upcoming Channel 4 "documentary" (which fails to mention this Dr, not a neurodiversity specialist, is also a Mail/Spectator writer) It is supposedly "science-led", claiming that screen time and ultra-processed food are what causes a condition first described in 1798

This is much talked about on the local nurdle clean up WhatsApp groups, and visible amongst my friends, but it’s really important that it’s talked about in incidents like these.

Ran 50 miles this month, which is the furthest I've done in a single month since September 2014. Three and a half stone heavier and two minutes a mile slower than back then, alas, all that matters is the miles covered.

One of the things we have to relearn in the modern era is the correct level of consequences. No, of course Zack Polanski shouldn’t be arrested for briefly sharing a post which had a picture that correctly is seen as threatening Farage. Yes, he should absolutely be judged and found wanting on it.

One of the lessons of the last two years is that Labour urgently needs to stop being afraid of its own shadow. Burnham should appoint whoever he thinks would be the best Chancellor and throw his authority behind them. The Daily Mail will try to kill them anyway. So just govern.

It's now unconscionable for the government to be posting on X. X is not a neutral utility, it is far, far darker: an environment that shapes behaviour, rewards cruelty, and normalises abuse. @theleaduk.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/theleadu...
