Absolutely loving this photo of the new High Commissioner from New Zealand meeting HM The King.

Which is a bit of a spiderman meme situation because this is the King’s Representative from one of his realms to another of his realms.

Yeah, I’m not sure how accurate this game is because there’s no way the polls would improve or even remain where they are if I made these 17 policy decisions

Half expecting this policy to be mooted each time I watch the news

Another day, another awful policy. At what point can we say Starmer giving another anti-Farage speech doesn’t make up for it?

Incredibly proud of our eight confirmands who were confirmed today, one baptised as well - for their public declaration of faith and for having journeyed with them in recent months (and years!).

Wait until this guy hears about the Electoral College

Yes, I thought that would be the reaction! Thankfully, no one is attempting this in the current AEO scheme.

But the CEEC in this advert of their ASO scheme of overseers are either admitting overseers are just spiritual directors with fancy titles or misunderstanding the role of bishops.

Do we think there was govt pressure here as part of Operation Suck Up? Or do the BBC not need any help with that?

Think the NYT quiz really summed up how I feel about Sliwa. Absolutely wins the “which candidate would I most want to have a pint with” but nothing else

There were times in the last month when it felt like there was a dark cloud following me like a cartoon character so good to see it confirmed

Do we think he’ll need to reapply for a driving license and passport?

30. In 1978, the Chesterfield Canal between Retford Town Lock and Whitsunday Pie Lock was being dredged when workers found a large coiled chain.

On removing it, they discovered it was attached to a plug in the bottom of the canal—the water drained away, leaving that section of the canal empty.

At what point can we agree Chris Mason just isn’t a very good writer?

“And there is a recurring sense of a declining sense of community: a sense that the ties that have long bound the town, the area together, are perhaps continuing to fray.”
