If you want to come back, just email Kier Starmer. I’m sure King Charles will be OK with it. You’d have to give up the guns though. Sorry about that.

Or the Big Dumb Bill…

The Leeds Big Walk for Candlelighters! Candlelighters are a brilliant charity who support families who have a child who has been diagnosed with cancer. They've been wonderful with children at the school I work at, along with their families

9 days until the 26 mile Great Leeds Walk - all donations gratefully received! candlelighters.enthuse.com/pf/adrian-th... 🙂

Are there any left? We’d love on for our school library! 🙂

I don’t think they’d have to do it - just threatening the Mango Mussolini with it would almost certainly change what passes for his mind…🙂

What if Apple were to announce that if this goes ahead, they’ll stop selling and supporting iPhones in the USA?

Donate to The Ali Brownlee 5K (again!), organized by Adrian Thompson Do you want to join me in making a difference? I'm once again running (I use the word ver… Adrian Thompson needs your support for The Ali Brownlee 5K (again!)

www.gofundme.com/f/the-ali-br... - I’m ‘running’ the Middlesbrough 5K at the end of May (not that I’m counting, but 14 days time… 😬) for which I shall be wearing an unusual hat… 🙂 It’s to raise funds for Candlelighters, a Leeds based charity who help families who have a child with cancer. 🙂

Is it Sam Freed from Law& Order and The Wire? He might be a bit too old though (he was born in 1948). His IMDB pic looks similar, but older.

A prison block.

Being a TV presenter is not a qualification for leadership.

He can’t really be that stupid, can he?

I don’t think lying racists with multiple marriages, convictions and divorces are usually considered for the role…

Or just ask Google? 🙂

Hi all. I've signed up for the Great Leeds Walk (26 miles! 😮) in July, to raise funds for Candlelighters. If you'd like to donate, the URL is candlelighters.enthuse.com/pf/adrian-th... .Have a great Easter, everyone!

Just FYI, Zuckerberg is flooding FB and Threads with self-congratulatory guff about Llama 4 being released yesterday. I’ve …commented. 🙂

She broke the law, she pays the price. France isn’t the USA…

Hi all. On the 20th March Today podcast, they talked about a project in Rochdale where boys were effectively getting rewarded for not being idiots, and girls had to work harder for rewards. They changed focus, and reduced the issues. Anyone have more information about this? Thanks.

Isn’t that a bit like delivery companies complaining that needing drivers to have driving licences makes recruitment harder?

Great book. Zuckerberg and Sheryl Sandberg don’t come out of it too well - especially Sheryl…

Careless People - a story of Facebook by Sarah Wynn-Williams

Reading Careless People. Sarah left the UN to be Facebook’s first Global Public Policy Director (they didn’t have one, didn’t particularly want one, but she thought they needed one). It’s a really good read, but I can see Mark Zuckerberg might not like it - he doesn’t come over well…🙂

You do get the feeling there’s nothing behind his eyes…

No suits, wear blue and yellow, and start any comment with ‘I stand with Ukraine’

Boycott the whole thing.

Watch him in the video. This obviously what he actually thinks. Shame he doesn’t have the guts to speak out…

Apple charts - Social Media. Threads at #1, BlueSky at #11 and Truth Social at…#101 (just below Scruff gay chat). And Twitter? That’s at #2 in the News category for some reason…
