I wish the Government would ignore the media maelstrom and focus on things that make lives better in the day to day. Like making driving test booking easier. I know they’re making changes to kill off the bots but it’s still IMPOSSIBLE just now

The media really does control politics far too much. BBC et al camped outside Downing Street, desperate for a ‘PM stands down’ story. We have seen this so much in Scotland too - the push towards creating the news instead of just reporting it.

The new ‘Board of Peace’ looks to be more about oil, gas and filthy lucre - only $1 billion to be a part of it - and just the loveliest countries signing so far. And as for the plans for Gaza…

This White House briefing is really quite dull and rambling…listening in as world events are ‘interesting’ to say the least and I wanted first hand news but I don’t think I can persevere…

What is America doing? Are all countries allowed to just bomb who they like now? A rogue state. No wonder Trump admires Putin…

Seeing so many kitchen influencers on Insta just now (thanks algorithm!) and, honestly, it’s like we’ve gone back in time - so many women (always women) agape with excitement over pantries & labelling & cleaning fluids. And shooting lingering videos of their quartz worktops & hot water taps. Sigh 🙄
