Andy is still getting more love from Chuck than Harry is. Is marrying someone you don't like more unforgivable than what Andy did?

And the moral of tonight's main political story in the UK...

Don't delete your email history. You never know when you will need it.

Mine was too, terrible sleeper, no naps, no through the nights, I promise it will pass.
Just wait 13 years, mine is now a teenager and a very good sleeper.
Sorry if that's not comforting, but you will get through this and your baby will be fine, some just need less sleep.

Ahhh right. So she drove them as an untrained teenager with not even a regular driving licence. Not the same as a... say German, with 10 years experience and a heavy goods licence.

● Andrew Windsor remains 8th in the line of succession.

●King Charles III will privately fund his new living arrangements despite Andrew being very rich indeed

● Actually we don't know how wealthy Andrew is because his mother's will is sealed for 90+ years

● Sleep well serfs.

● Know your place.

And while we are at it, we can change the upper house to be PR appointees or something like the Swiss Bund, where they are 2 each from the 3 biggest parties and 1 from the 4th, so no party holds sway over the actual making laws thing and they have to work quadpartisanly (twice as fair as bipartisan)

Son marries someone I don't like..... kick him out and cut him off.
Brother commits disgusting crimes.... support him and pay for a nice home.
That family is weird.

Abigail Nunes-Richards @abinr.bsky.social · 14h

Sorry, I love my brother, and will always love him, but no way would I support him if he did something so awful, especially after cutting off my son because he married someone I don't like (I would not do the latter anyway, that's just hateful).

And Versailles has way more vistors than any UK palace so increased tourism?

Exactly, when you say presidential system people think US or Russia, not Austria or Switzerland.
Presidents can also have just a figurehead roll (or a break a tie-break role).

Exact point I made the other night.
It's all well and good that Betty was quite nice, but the thing about hereditary monarchy is that she wasn't queen because she was quite nice, she was queen because her dad was king.
And Wills was not born until 82, so Andy was 2nd in line for a long time.

He's back and he's very very angry.
They only took out the top two so now he just has his bottom two canines and a lonely incisor.

My little guy is off to the vets in two hours to have the last of his teeth out (stomatitis) but at the moment he and his brother are more annoyed at the lack of breakfast service.

Trey Sherman, who worked on the now-canceled CBS Evening News Plus, also posted this TikTok clip explaining that every producer of color on the show was laid off -- and every white producer was relocated to another role in the company.

Why would someone pay $20k for a robot controlled by a human in a remote location to do things more slowly and clumsily when the median wage for a maid or housekeeper is $33k per year, which is typically spread across 10-20 households?

Wow - those are quite phenomenal headlines given the details of the story.

Ahh look, he’s just a ‘nerdy’ guy. No harm done.

You need to scroll down to paragraph 13 of the Sky piece to find the full story!

We all know what the headlines would be-and rightly so!

And you wonder why people are so aware of crimes committed by asylum seekers or black or brown people?

Because the headlines scream it from the rooftops

Yet this white guy barely gets a mention and it’s given an “he’s a science nerd” spin

Here's the actual team at Reform UK Hamble Valley vs the image they are projecting.

What appears to be AI people on the Reform UK Hamble Valley website.
They all have the same fixed smile and hand position.

The people at the back are extremely tall.

A younger and an older man to the left are both wearing the same dark navy blue quilted jacket

There is one non-white person, an older man.

Even in England, my dad spent a lot of his childhood at his grandmother's with his mum's youngest sister who was only a few years older than him and she was my aunt, not his aunt, and her kids were my cousins and his nephews.

Abigail Nunes-Richards @abinr.bsky.social · 2d

Indeed. My aunt loves doing family trees but the Irish branch is impossible because a) the national records were destroyed and b) the anacdotal cousins were hardly ever parent's sibling's kids, just people kinda the same age who may or may not be blood relatives.

.. and who might we need to be 'saving' this from?

Well, he's a cafe owner in Brum and the person whose land he found it on.

Who will each be paid cool £1.75 million of our money.
