Reposted by chillerMic Wright @brokenbottleboy.bsky.social · 19hIt is very interesting that the Mail’s story on Michael Gove’s recent ex-girlfriend being charged with CSAM offences has been memoryholed two days after it was published. Public records show she appeared at Oxford Combined Court centre on September 30 and pleaded not guilty. 16367154
Reposted by chillerMic Wright @brokenbottleboy.bsky.social · 19hThere’s no obvious reason why that story would have been pulled. Interesting too that the Mail’s diary story on Gove and Salem splitting appeared three days after her court appearance. Almost like someone resembling Michael Gove wearing a fake moustache sent in that tip. 417930

chiller @chiller.eurosky.social · 1hIn the process of doing this I met a very large yellow marsh frog. What a delightful little chap! Quite slow, due to the cold weather, but eager to avoid the massive hot-blooded ape that was rootling around in his garden. I left the weeds in his area. Good cover. 290
chiller @chiller.eurosky.social · 1hPlanted mum's ridiculously successful osteospermums out this morning, in time to take advantage of today's rain, & hopefully get their roots established before winter. They go through the winter outside quite happily, here. By next spring they will be lovely sturdy plants. #gardening 1160
chiller @chiller.eurosky.social · 2hYes, it's joyful, and I'm *reasonably* confident that this was enough of a wake-up call (and the fallout sufficiently difficult to manage), that it should be addressed. I actually do have a reasonable amount of confidence in our leadership. Which is a novel sensation, after being a Labour member. 020

chiller @chiller.eurosky.social · 2hI'm not sure I'd describe myself as relaxed about it, tbh... ;) But I do have *some* degree of trust that this issue will be being explored at the top of the party, as there seem to be plenty of strong feelings. 120
chiller @chiller.eurosky.social · 3hYeah, I mean in fairness if you just like shooting things, just say "I really like shooting things." 130
chiller @chiller.eurosky.social · 3hWell ... in fairness it's one motion. I'm not a fan of it as you know, but it doesn't (at this point) give any indication of being the bow-wave of a series of big changes. We get notification of new motions well in advance of conf, so if it IS sthing like that, we'll see it coming. 220
Reposted by chillerRuth Pearce @notrightruth.bsky.social · 5hI was recently informed by a musician friend that the BBC have, in fact, not only banned slogans on their entertainment shows, but also flags, *and* have also recently banned people from wearing colours that might be reasonable "construed" as representing a flag. So no you probably can't wear this. 613839
