"In early medieval England, the calendar year was not standardised like it is now. There were varying opinions about when the calendar year should renew, and different historical sources consider the beginning of the year to land on different dates." 🙃

No idea who Laurent Brindeau is, but isn’t this caricature of @zackpolanski.bsky.social in today’s @dailymailpolitics.bsky.social ragingly antisemitic?

Artist, shrugging: 'I painted this cos whatever.'
Playwright, also shrugging: 'Yeah I wrote a play but also, whatever. I didn't have feelings while I did it and I don't anticipate anyone watching will either.'
Artist: 'Exactly.'
