I think at this point if you're including Diane Abbott - a woman who has never held government office, has been a backbencher since 2020, and is scarcely a government ally - on your list of political wrongdoers, we all know exactly what your real concerns are

Delune Mausoleum, a very raw monument in the cemetery of Ixelles. A family of local architects and builders whose highly-decorated creations still dot Brussels. On guard is a statue of Raoul Delune, who died young in WW1. The door is decorated in barbed wire.

So farewell then Dickie Bird
Back in the pavilion with a cracking 92
A top innings before him upstairs gave you out
Though if he was you, I'm sure you'd have got

Jamie Raskin, who I’ve never heard of before but now has my regard. Talking about farage. Good words.

A landlord turned off Tenant Client's family's heat upon learning Client was an immigrant.

Landlord hired three different law firms to argue this was legal, then fired each one after they couldn't get our case dismissed.

This week, landlord settled for enough that Client will buy a house.
Tell me something that brought you joy this week.

Any old thing will do. Small joys are as good as big ones—sometimes even better.

Interesting how you never see the head of this school on Question Time or elsewhere opining on the culture-war topic of the day.

Perhaps, rather than the majority of us broadening our circle of friends to accommodate a minority of British people who are out and out xenophobes, that small group of bigots could learn to be less racist.

Just a thought
It's got to the stage where if 'you don't know anyone whose voting for Reform' you need to broaden your social circle.

Or, perhaps, reflect on what it is about your behaviour that means your friends don't feel able to be open with you about politics.

Now here’s how you make a case for something. Where’s the cab trade equivalent?
🤔 What other cities have brought in low traffic zones? How will Oxford Street change the future of the West End? What kind of impact would making the area low traffic have?

Answers to those questions, and more, on our new report into the future of the West End, can be found in our latest blog... 👇

Blistering piece from @iandunt.bsky.social on Matthew Goodwin's visit to London.

"The success of London is a point-blank, up-against-the-wall-motherfucker refutation of the right-wing populist world view."

They hate London because it is beautiful
Matthew Goodwin went to that there London the other day and what he found shook him to his core.
