These Anthony Gormley sculptures are getting more abstract
This image of an Amazon van abandoned in the Thames Estuary faintly evokes an impressionist painting. I am so moved.

The Labour right has shown very clearly that it cannot coexist with the Labour left.

DROP THE CHARGES
Next Monday, 32 people are scheduled to make their first appearance at Westminster Magistrates' Court.
They have been charged with a terror-related offence for holding placards supporting Palestine Action at a demonstration last August.

Earlier this week I refused to speak to BrewDog for a story and they were "disappointed". I had no idea how much influence I had.
Looks like it's over for the Punks...

Keir Starmer has got a nerve lecturing other parties on security when his government appears to have no qualms about making every aspect of the UK’s essential infrastructure more & more reliant on Trump-supporting tech firms that have clearly shown themselves hostile to liberal democracy.

High Court rules that you can't pretend retired vicars and disabled people are terrorists
In a decision that should spell the end of Yvette Cooper’s political career, the High Court has ruled the ban on Palestine Action is unlawful.

Oh, and it contains maize, which didn’t exist on this side of the Atlantic before 1492.
Spotted in Belfast Airport - apparently Heverlee “premium” pilsner is brewed to the “original recipe” which dates back to 1129. Surprised by this, given that lager yeast didn’t emerge until the 15th century and pilsner didn’t exist until 1842. ABInBev really don’t give a shit about beer or drinkers.

Just checking, it's now ok to flee your homeland, because you're afraid for your safety, and seek refuge in another Country?
Glad we've cleared that up. Let's hear no more about immigration and refugees then.

There is now enough weirdness around Epstein that even sensible journalists like me are saying he allegedly took his life.

“Lies about our case have been used to justify the proscription of Palestine Action”
The Observer spoke with Filton24 prisoner, Zoe Rogers, who spent 18months imprisoned on remand, to not be found guilty of any crime after a politically-charged trial.
