We need more reporting of local government. This is quite a thread...

Cllr Daniel Taylor, currently on bail pending trial over allegations that he threatened to kill his wife, has attended today. Given he missed every other meeting since his arrest, he would have been disqualified as a councillor had he not arrived today.

Damn. Had no idea about this. Used to watch his films with my grandmother when the BBC showed them. My first favourite film star.

Y’know, they’d genuinely never crossed my radar before. Definitely going to find out more.

(Also, sorry, but I have to shoehorn in the obligatory #RSKXfm reference re Liam.. 🤓)

Being facetious - as there’s a lot of US-style discourse making its way into politics here, I’d love to see this one go the other way and see how well it does over there.

I know. Tune’s quite addictive, isn’t it? I’ll check them out.

Selv @selv.bsky.social · 1d

Will do.

Also, just bought this. If that tune is not mentioned, I’ll be sending a stern email to the author.

Nice - enjoyed that! 👍🏾 The line “Nine Elms was a wasteland” really reminded me of what it used to be like. Brunswick House. The mouldering Stationery Office building. Strawberry Sundae. That massive house standing by itself on Nine Elms Lane.
