Please remember to help raise awareness of yellow-legged Asian hornets (YLH) by wearing some yellow socks this week.
Yellow lower legs are a distinctive feature of this non-native invasive species.

I wrote to M&S about the stupid lingerie department story - confirms nobody offered a bra fitting to a teenage girl. The Telegraph and JK can (always) do one.

I’ve obviously drawn this one in my ultra-realistic style, so usual reminder that my portrait is the image on the right.
Review from the customer:
‘It looks like a depressed woodlouse in a fur coat.’

Arresting Quaker women for non-violent protest and breaking into a meeting house to do so. The first time anyone has been arrested in a meeting house in living memory. Despicable behaviour from a Labour government’s Home Office/the Met Police.
🚨 Outrage as 20 police officers break into Westminster Quaker Meeting House and arrest six. 🚨
This shocking violation of a place of worship is a direct result of crackdowns on protest and dissent - freedom of speech, assembly and democracy are at risk.🕊️
