My one #politics post of the day.
Starmer's refusal to clear out Tory appointments to the BBC Board and other public bodies from day one was at best deeply naive.
Again we come back to the mystery of what Labour were doing pre-2024 election as it definitely wasn't preparing for power.

Been a grim week on the sleep front so I've been looking forward to the weekend to recharge. Got my head down, just about dropped off, and the cacophony outside started up again. At my absolute wits' end.

The owner of X is now a trillionaire and repeatedly foments civil unrest in the UK. Not only does our government stay quiet, they post on his platform, which an excellent piece of Sky journalism has shown deliberately amplifies far right content. Insane.
