The black hole in Durham County Council’s budget has grown by £11.1mn in the past two months under the control of Reform UK.
Its cabinet has been forced to approve a £10mn list of cuts.
But the measures will still leave the county council with a deficit of £72mn over the coming four years

Reform is now learning that running a big council is not as easy as it probably thought

I really hate it when scientists keep saying that “we need to rebuild trust in science,” because it implies that scientists are to blame for the mistrust rather than the millions of dollars of dark money that have funded political attacks on science in order to advance a far right agenda.

What a brilliant way to link to a key societal issue that very few people ever think about!
just learned we won an award for our blog post about Tom Holland and stormwater management.
remember, when you see an article about stormwater management, you repost it. i don’t make the rules.

Tomorrow, it’s “Let’s jump out of an aeroplane at 13,000 feet!” day and pretend I’m a Peregrine Falcon.
But Peregrines probably don’t have second thoughts;

They also stoop a lot faster than 120mph!
