Good. I wish the Council in #Loughborough would take them down, especially those put up in the road by the university just before all the students arrived. It's oppressive.
Disgraceful! A patriotic flag shagger who dedicated his time to illegally putting up 64 flags is being charged £2,300 for the cost of taking them down. If it wasn't so funny I'd be furious.

Rosencrantz and Gildenstern Are Dead was one of the first plays that my day took me to. I loved it.
“We’re actors — we’re the opposite of people!”

Tom Stoppard, the ingenious Czech-born British playwright and screenwriter whose gift for wordplay led him to a record five Tony Awards for best play, the first for Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead and the last for Leopoldstadt, and an Oscar for Shakespeare in Love, has died. He was 88.

1/5 It was entirely predictable that The Telegraph would jump on @DavidOlusoga’s Empire series to fight its right wing culture war for control of our public history. Let’s see what they’ve done:

Fabulous.
Holy shit, this film is incredible! It's just trains in the snow, and yet there is such a wonderfully propulsive soundtrack and such dynamic, even experimental editing that I'm actually in awe. Never even heard of Geoffrey Jones, but this is virtuoso stuff. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cl4p...

Two really important, fascinating books to add to the slimmest of cannons, of rural, working class women. @abrackenbury.bsky.social’s Village is a glorious compendium!
[email protected]’s ‘Village’ & a re-issue of Mary Chamberlain’s ‘Fenwomen’ give voice to an otherwise largely silent corner of England, writes @nicolawriting.bsky.social, telling the evocative, hard-lived stories of rural working class women www.caughtbytheriver.net/2025/11/vill...
