BREAKING 🚨: We are watching governments steer us toward 2.6C of heating, a future where the Amazon shifts toward savannah, ice sheets deteriorate and lethal heat becomes part of daily life.
They know exactly what this means and still fund fossil fuels.

The Graun simply does not see women at all. It ignores our political & legal campaigning, erases the language that refers to us. Equates leftie feminists like myself to Boris Johnson.
Appalling.

So nothing whatsoever about opposition across the political spectrum to the BBC overwriting sex with gender identity, erasing women when it means women ('pregnant people') & substituting woman when they mean man (male criminals with trans identities), then?
Just Boris?
Mendacious spin.
Disgusting.

On Yom Kippur— the holiest day for Jews— a synagogue in Manchester became a crime scene.
Two murdered, more injured.
This is what happens when hate is normalised, when Jew-haters are allowed to roam free.
It has to stop.

This is the sort of shite Jewish people globally are faced with in the aftermath of attacks.
Netanyahu is a war criminal, but Jews in Manchester have nothing to do with him or the state of Israel. Their murder was anti-semitic, not anti-zionist. Stop providing moral justification for terrorism.

France has banned internal flights where the train is less than 4 hours. Yes, our infrastructure isn't up to scratch for that yet but if government set a goal to do it in 10 years, it could be our moonshot.

Clearing drawers my wife finds my father’s slide rule. It doesn’t have sentimental value, but I find myself reluctant to simply bin it. What does one do with these tenacious, interstitial objects? Is there a slide-rule collector out there who might want it?

I can recommend Gail’s work. We bought a big version of her print of Forton Services and it looks great on the wall. Northern Brutalism classic.
If I’m being honest, I’m feeling pretty crap about my small business.
It’s so bloody difficult at the moment with rising costs, US tariffs, Brexit nonsense and the threat of AI.
Please have a look at what I do and repost to spread the word gailmyerscough.co.uk
