I love this. I'm biased, I live with the creator. #art #painting
My most recent #artwork. Random colours.
Superb post. Read this #RachelReeves. BTW, why aren't you, as Chancellor, on this platform, it's a rational space?
But she isn't. She's just being her beautiful self? Does Spike ever become jealous in the attention seeking stakes chez vous?

Unexplained wealth & Farage 👇 Avoidance of stamp duty & HMRC? No reporting of supplementary income to Parliament? Russia & petrodollars links & Reform?

Nope nothing except @Bylines.bsky.social.

Tinpot Teflon gets a free ride from the BBC & the MSM.
That £900k house in Frinton. Has anyone mentioned how it was paid for yet? Any laws broken, or all above board?

Anyone investigating? Media grown a conscience? Any journalist working for the British people? Anyone?

Half way through another week of silence then.
Beseiged by a #bug. Dizzy, very dodgy tummy, & general malaise. Time for soup & sleep, lots of sleep. It may or may not be -Covid but as the #Ukgov website tells me am not eligible for a free #NHS test, who cares? Feel crap.
We journos are the 4th estate. It's time for challenge. I agree with every word my colleague @peterthurlow.bsky.social has opined.
“Auntie BBC” still sees her job as reassurance, not challenge.

But when the news becomes comfort food, who’s left to hold power to account?

How deference becomes client journalism in plain sight
We have come through a period of often shameful journalism, bending the knee to Downing Street. Can our journalism recover?

She has a look of patient expectation.
Thanks @pecksniffsdiary.bsky.social for including prawn crackers, pig's rectums & #Tacitus in yr diary. Some excellent #political nuggets. Vital reading for any who wish to make sense of the #UK political landscape.
The Tory party faces an existential threat, which may reduce ‘Britain’s natural party of government’ potentially to mere walk-on parts, like the Monster Raving Loony Party.

Leccy blanket deployed. Why? My house is 130 yrs old. No double #glazing, mega draughts & I am #cold. Plse, don't suggest secondary glazing - one day my friends, one day.
I don't know where the #Labourparty is at the moment. I had expected comms, like this, from them. Kudos to @zackpolanski.bsky.social for this: www.instagram.com/reel/DPeiG02...
@onenerdsopinion.bsky.social not sure what I think about literary #horror genre but come to #Norwich UK for #Bloghaus of horror.
Plenty of ire & scorn against all parties, derision is aimed at #Glasman & #MorganMcSweeney . But rare praise from @pecksniffsdiary.bsky.social for our editor in chief - the redoubtable @annadamski.bsky.social . If only she were running the country.

AI isn’t evil, writes Stephen McNair, but it’s not neutral either.

MIT researchers found ChatGPT can dampen memory and creativity.

You think it is writing your essay, but perhaps it is rewriting your brain.

That's terrible. Such a strong set of images & a powerful message.
I believe #KeirStarmmer is listening to the wrong people & looking at the face of #edmilliband.bsky.social he agrees too.
Maybe @skynewsrss.bsky.social you shldn't have chatted over the #MargaretAspinall very powerful speech.
I had a visitor today. The cat WHO IS NOT MY CAT dropped by.
Finally, some cheer.
Illegal fishing fleets can no longer count on global subsidies.

With two-thirds of WTO members on board, the first environmental trade agreement has entered into force – and countries must start cutting harmful support worth billions.

📢 See why this landmark deal matters.
Subsidies for international illegal fishing are abolished
Twenty-five years after talks on limiting fishing subsidies first began, a legally binding agreement has come into force

If the Chancellor is raising taxes in November then she must start with raising them on us, the super rich. No ifs, no buts, no questions: we are the only ones left who can afford to contribute more.
