Happy Birthday Linda. Keep your brilliant photos coming please! And on Bluesky too. I grabbed this photo quickly on my phone only (my camera not with me!)whilst on an evening trip into London for a play at National Theatre. Such a great viewpoint.

Posted this a few times on the Bowie anniversary but not over here so here’s one of my favourite tributes of that day, from the organist at Kelvingrove Museum.

Huge news for South West Wales. The first Celtic Sea floating offshore wind project (Erebus) has been confirmed as part of a record breaking auction for wind power. This matters for jobs from Port Talbot right across to Pembrokeshire www.gov.uk/government/n...

An absolutely key first principle when using AI is that you, the human, are responsible for its outputs, and that you must *check* everything it churns out. Blaming Copilot doesn't wash.
WM Police chief Craig Guildford has apologised for identifying a fictitious West Ham v Maccabi Tel Aviv match in a police report. He’s written to the home affairs committee and blames Microsoft CoPilot for the error

Donald Trump needs to arrest and charge Jonathan Ross, he should have done it on the day it happened.

Nearly 30,000 people have cancelled their World Cup tickets after an innocent woman was shot in the face and Donald Trump called her a terrorist.

Don't go to this dangerous hellhole, it might cost you your life.

I know who Nus Ghani MP is - not because we always agree - but because she’s been serving her constituency (as well as lewks) since 2015.

Who the hell is Lucy White?!

Ah, a quick google search reveals her as a rentagob for GB ‘news.’

I know which one is qualified to chair the budget debate.

Nus Ghani MP - the Deputy Speaker - moved to the UK as a small child. She has been elected by the voters in Wealden in 2015, 2017, 2019 and 2024

More outright racism from the regular GB News & Talk TV contributor Lucy White - who previously called (on GB News) for all Muslims to leave Britain

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Will Andrew Battenberg soon be spotted shopping at Tesco Kings Lynn, holding his plastic bag with a microwave lasagne and a 4-pack of Special Brew? Alternatively there's always his favourite Pizza Express- also in Kings Lynn? Or even an Uber to Michelin-starred Morston Hall?

Very good stuff from Sadiq Khan at the Labour Irish society event. He said there are two reasons he loves coming to Labour Conference.

“One is the reception at the Labour Party Irish Society reception.

“The second is to get away from all the Sharia Law in London”

The year of Our Lord, 2025, & a former British PM is championing the views of a Neo-Nazi, as he attacks students for not genuflecting to fascism. I think, if we were to believe in horror movies, the flatulent & incandescent corpse of Churchill must be searching for Johnson now…
This isn't even close to being the most unhinged thing in the Daily Mail today

For the next four weeks, we are lifting the 9.30am rule on older and disabled people’s bus passes.

We hope it will help people over the summer as well as provide valuable data on whether we have the capacity and finances to make it permanent.

Please help spread the word! 🙏🏻
