From troubles of the world I recommend turning to #Shucked at #Regent’sParkOpenAirTheatre for an evening of fun & escapism (& a corny meal in the dining area too)! We loved it.

My first apartment in 1994 was $350/month. Adjusting for inflation, that apartment should now rent for $744/month.

It actually rents for $1500. Greed and inflation are hurting the kids, not their Starbucks lattes.

A relief to finally see this spelled out like this. It ought to be an orthodoxy. @quinnslobodian.com great new book, Hayek’s Bastards, also helps to clarify the alliances and possible shared interests between capital and ethnonationalism www.theguardian.com/business/202...

I think it’s great, that after all the struggles in the past century, we live in a country where airport buses welcome visitors to Ireland with the Progress Pride Flag.

🚨 NEW: Kemi Badenoch responds after two Labour MPs are denied entry into Israeli

“Countries should be able to control their borders. What is shocking is that we have MPs in Labour who other countries won't allow in…

“We do the same thing. There are many people we don’t allow in to our country.”

Many memories of being distraught, confused, scared & angry. But we're still arguing & singing.

Sending ❤️ to those who faced loss & our enduring thanks to our protectors in those dark days

It stinks, #Badenoch
Kemi Badenoch accepted a £14,000 week-long "residential" for her family and shadow cabinet, courtesy of the chair of climate change denying lobbying group Net Zero Watch.

Weeks later she announced that she has ditched her party's commitment to reaching Net Zero bylinetimes.com/2025/03/18/k...

He’s right. The secondary school where I worked had a policy that had the problem under control years ago.
Keir Starmer says it is "completely unnecessary" to have a legal ban on phones in schools.

Kemi Badenoch asks why Labour voted against it. Starmer says because most schools already ban them under their own policies. #PMQs

This is not why I voted for you @teamlabouruk.bsky.social It’s unacceptable.
Can't remember a statement by a Chancellor that has gone down as badly, as quickly, and with almost all parts of the political spectrum, as this one
