To not sanction him sends a message that his actions were acceptable to us. We live in a country he was not long ago calling for an uprising in, and I'm still furious we didn't act then.

She was a legend! Because our (UK, it's not a devolved power) government is unequivocally backing the Ukrainian people, and this was clearly a military move on behalf of Russia cooked up by a bloke with significant financial interest in the UK including media, infrastructure etc.

So, as staunch Ukraine supporters, our government sanctions Musk as a Russian asset...?

My mum makes half and half Guinness and Guinness zeros to keep herself sober enough, so probably. (Also Tanqueray Seville Orange makes a mean non alco spicy marg if done right)

For reference, this is less than the new Manchester United stadium is expected to cost.

The lack of quick access to news and the lack of detail in stories across the BBC is going to be a huge problem in an age of disinformation.

Jim would like all of your skritches please.
I'm sat on a sofa taking the picture. A black greyhound has his long snout in my lap demanding to be scratched and admired. It has worked, he deserves the admiration.

The first journalist to ask Hegseth when he's moving from testosterone to finalosterone deserves a pay rise.

Apparently the only way to be found guilty of it is as the victim, and nothing in that makes you a horrendously bad candidate for the agency.

Family parkrun stats this weekend: 5 runners 3 counties 2 continents 1 first timer I had by far the wettest run, as you can see.

The coverage of the Welsh gender surgery cancellations is some of the most appalling and degrading reporting on trans health this year. Every mainstream editor, clearly tickled at the decision, is going out of their way to add wholly irrelevant sections debasing patients’ bodies to a surreal degree.

Probably a regression from the mean response/reply rate and account gets and inspecting posts for negative language or offensive terms. That could trigger an algorithmic slowing of sharing the post in question, put an auto stop on new comments etc.

My favourite hack with these: stir a teaspoon of peanut butter into some of the cooking water to loosen it and then stir that back into the pot for the last minute of cooking to get chicken satay noodles.

But to be fair (and I'm not a Labour supporter) his views on whipping allow the room for it to happen and labour MPs to vote differently to his view on such matters.

The GCs remove the space from "trans woman" because they think this shows that it is like "jellyfish": a compound noun that is not a kind of fish. But blackbirds are birds and red pandas are not pandas. English grammar is not going to do their transphobia for them.

As someone born in Rochdale, please do this. In fact, tour it. Use football grounds to host sitting days, big screens showing all the action and pitch side announcers commentating on Black Rod's duties. Get school kids in to watch from the stands, too.
