Need some time off. Trying to decide whether to book an AirBnB, a hotel, or just stay at home and chill. (Although home is tense, it's still home)

When I said the government should treat the climate crisis like the emergency it is, this isn't quite what I had in mind

Sadiq is saying the right things - but supporting a government that aren't taking necessary action. Labour haven't even called an emergency meeting about wildfires - let alone taken action. And why are they not nationalising the water companies? Join.greenparty.org.uk

This burning summer is the proof: the voices of climate denial aren't just delusional. They're deadly.

Sadiq khan has posted "unbelievable" over a headline that says Thames Water gave finance boss a £1m signing on fee.

If your chosen date is before the current date then it will answer "2027" otherwise it will answer "2026". Neither of those is a day of the week and even if you wanted to know the year, "2026" is the wrong answer. Why is Amazon's offering so utterly pathetic? (2/2)

Consider how advanced AI has become, and how rich Amazon are, how much computing power is at their disposal. Then ask Alexa "What day of the week is [date of your choice] next year" and listen to the answer. (1/2)

As a result he was often overshadowed by his more bombastic colleagues, but his seemingly detached professionalism and reliability were what real news journalism is all about. He was underrated, but was one of the best. (2/2)

Sad to hear about the death of Edward Stourton. He was one of those news presenters who was often "just there", not forcing his personality on the viewer/listener but just delivering the news and asking (usually) the right questions at the right time. (1/2)

TBH that ship has sailed. People use AI for things that are far more trivial and much less wholesome than this. In my opinion this is actually a good use of it.

There is precedent for the Chancellor vetoing an MP's resignation. Viscount Chelsea (Henry Cadogan) applied for the Chiltern Hundreds in 1842 Then Chancellor (Goulburn) refused as Cadogan wanted to resign to obstruct an investigation for bribery. So it is possible. Although Binface vs Binjuice?!

Farage doesn't like being scrutinised and is trying to pull a desperate stunt as a "referendum" on whether he should be subject to perfectly legitimate journalism. Anyone who thinks the press shouldn't be free to investigate and report on public figures' backgrounds is not fit to lead our country.

I'm no supporter of Labour but the last thing this country needs is a repeat of the Tory chaos with switching prime minister every few months. There's no evidence to say any other Labour MP would do a better job than Starmer. Only a Green government can deliver what Britain really needs.

The amount of air time utilised for that analysis is ridiculous. It would make more sense to analyse the numbers generated by a random number generator and talk about that for 15 minutes in every news bulletin. What Trump says really is that meaningless.

“He is, of course, a serial liar & prone to espousing completely contradictory positions within moments of each other.” It is extraordinary to me that journalists continue to ‘analyse’ Donald Trump without adding this constant caveat. It does readers, listeners & viewers a grave disservice.

A new customs union with the EU isn’t a “simple fix”. It’s complex - but necessary. Rebuilding ties with Europe matters, especially as the US becomes more unpredictable.
