The idea that being *a member of the House of Lords* in any way means you can be trusted with Top Secret/STRAP material without proper vetting is so beyond absurd that this must surely be a joke?
He's running.
I will thank you! We have almost no communal power use, small block with just lights, so wouldn’t be worth it for that sadly.
Unfairly this is not going to be something you can answer, but I’m really interested in the possibilities/challenges for blocks of flats. If we invest in this for our block do we need extra legal stuff for managing it? And presumably everyone still has a meter, and how are calculations done? Etc.
This Is Just To Say

Nothing but respect for my Prime Minister
Orange fluffy cat inside my car.
I have to go to work and this is not my cat.
Can't talk about other bosses but obviously the UK PM role is a huge job that anyone would like to have.
Whenever I hear that students should expect to be offended at university I always think of like an accountancy student.
“And now we’ve finished the cash flow statement onto the next section of the course: MEIN KAMPF!!!”
Take the wrong lesson from a movie:
Jaws 2 : Even if you let people get eaten you can still be re-elected.
European edition cover has the full quote.
My first thought was someone has made a game of Gone With The Wind but set it in 70s California and, I don’t hate it as a concept
Take the wrong lesson from a movie:
101 Dalmatians: it is perfectly reasonable to keep over 100 large dogs in a London terrace house
OH BOY I SURE AM GLAD THAT OUR PRESS AND INVESTORS TAKE EVERY WORD OF THE MAD KING’S DERANGED RAMBLINGS AT FACE VALUE
I know it might be radical, but add "no leaf blowers" to a platform of "the headlights are too bright" and "you should be able to pay for software once and then own it" and I would rank that candidate #1 every time.
adulthood is just a series of reminders to replace various filters
A huge wall just partially collapsed at Khotyn Fortress — one of Ukraine's most famous medieval landmarks, 17 km north of Moldova. Not due to war, it's just old and neglected.
Staff are counting the losses and searching for money to rebuild.

Well spotted. Yeah it’s almost entirely fabricated (you would never see the full length of that distant church in the water) but doesn’t include the other fabrication!
Actual surviving artefacts being turned into a vaguely truthy mishmash of historical-coded things. (I mean apart from the extra wheels)
Unbelievably awful.
It’s added something to the square church tower that you would never see on an English church. Looks more like an 18c Paris roofline.
Well this is embarrassing
A colleague didn’t recognise me in my glasses so I tried to joke “I’m Clark Kent” but accidentally declared “I’m Ken Clarke”
That said, I’m not in favour of having politically appointed Ambassadors. As we see, they often turn out to be more trouble than they’re worth. Also, maintaining a professional diplomatic service is an important national interest in my view. End/

There is something ironic about Boris Johnson, the classicist, being brought down by his own inherent fatal flaws, while Keir Starmer, the lawyer, may be brought down by trying to hide behind technicalities.
Although maybe that in itself is a fatal flaw. I wonder what Sophocles would say
From this month’s Fortean Times. I’m sort of in awe
Well that *was* rather witty I thought but clearly nothing here will work long enough for anyone to read it 😔
Another great thing about his name is all headlines now sound a bit early medieval, like the Brussels bureaucrats are off for a meeting with some violent horse people
