Remember. Violent attacks and intimidation are legitimate concerns but holding up a sign is terrorism.

Something of note; with the reports that Burnham is apparently swaying towards free personal care model as done in Scotland, this combined with moves to enable water renationalisation, and electoral reform...is Andy Burnham just making England into Scotland under devolution?

Wouldn’t disagree with much that Burnham said today in what was an excellent speech. But… 90% of the substance is focused on England catching up with Scotland (Bus fares, rail nationalisation, water in public control, free social care and PR in elections). Not much for Scotland except Unionism!

Watching Burnham coverage on the BBC 6 o’clock news. Conference loving it: Public ownership of water. Proportional representation. Free personal care for the elderly. Reform of leasehold property. Shows just how badly England has been governed. Scotland already enjoys all this & much more.

I know there is a hell of a lot going on right now. But not all of it is bad. Some is astonishingly good - like the results of this study from June. Cervical cancer is a terribly cruel thing. This might, at long last, be the beginning of the end of it. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The Times - which has v much joined in the rightwing clamour to reduce immigration - now reporting that Mahmood’s “success” has cost the economy £4- to £7Bn. Would they like to now honestly confirm that fewer people = less spending power for all. There’s a high price to pay for this nasty obsession.

Patrick Maguire
Chief Political Commentator Oliver Wright Policy Editor

Falling migration numbers could cost the chancellor as much as £7bn in fiscal headroom as he writes his first budget, The Times has been told.
Government insiders believe that John Healey, who already faced an uphill battle to balance the books next month, is likely to have an even bigger challenge after immigration undershot projections from the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR).
The Institute for Fiscal Studies think tank estimated last month that the success of Shabana
Mahmood's
reforms, which have cut net migration to the low hundreds of thousands, could cost Healey some £4bn.

Norway produces more oil than Venezuela. And yet, between January and August 2026, electric vehicles made up 97.8 percent of all new cars sold in that country. Moving to EVs is often based on intelligence, not need. Which is why it lags in the notoriously short-sighted and stupid United States.

Exactly 4 years ago today, I visited the Moco museum in Amsterdam with my sister. Loved the light installations with infinity mirror effects - reminiscent of Yayoi Kusama’s Infinity Rooms. 🌈 The artwork is called “Diamond Matrix” created by Studio Irma. Very immersive! #Amsterdam #MocoMuseum #Art

The Bayeux Tapestry is cool as hell. A 230 foot-long textile account of the Norman Conquest from the 11th C., with lots of fun details, including 626 people, 190 horses, 35 dogs, 32 ships, & 93 penises. "Are there eels?" you ask. Of course there are eels! Let's take a look! 1/8 🗃️🧪

Meme. Scene from the Bayeux Tapestry showing Harold pulling two Norman soldiers from the river. Beneath are 2 fish, seven eels, and a man with a seax reaching for an eel, grabbing it by the tail. Above, in latin, is a description of the scene.

The latin text does not have a break between "de" & "arena" (trans: from the sand) so it looks, instead, like it might read "Dear Ena." That would be a different story.

Behind Harold is a pileup of men and horses, with one of the horses pitching head-first into the river. The eels are surely looking forward to a meal of Normans and horses, but they are going to be partially thwarted by Harold. They'll have to make do with just the horses.

There are no penises in this part of the tapestry, so if that's what you were here for, you can move on.

Meme text reads:
"Borne on the Bayeux"
