Well deduced, Inspector Hills.

Warhols in Malaga, actually.

Saw some nice Warhols today and Picassos that were so good I forgot to take photos of them.

Smell that Pedro Ximénez.

Just saw Chris Mason in the street, so unfortunately he’s real.

Sticker on a street utility box: “FARAGE WANTS TO END YOUR WORKING RIGHTS, NEVER VOTE REFORM”, with a building, sky, clouds and trees in the background of the photo.

A little sticker I saw when I was out today.

Pretend it’s 1998 and it’ll sound great.

A new Madonna track used to sound like the future, the new Madonna track sounds like a comforting reminder of the past.

I’m afraid so.

In case you’re confused - the £100k of tax Richard Tice failed to pay here is totally different to the
- £92k of tax not properly withheld on dividends
- the £600k side-stepped via highly aggressive tax avoidance
Industrial scale grifting revealed by @danneidle.bsky.social and Gabriel Pogrund

It’ll be interesting to see how the news of Richard Tice’s tax dodging plays out. My impression is that Reform supporters will be perfectly fine with it and keep voting for him in the hope that if he gets into government they also won’t have to pay their taxes.

It was a good post!

I just accidentally liked a post about hemorrhoids on Instagram so that’s my algorithm now.

It’s a safe bet that she’ll go long before he does.

The Story of Paz.

Should be leading the bulletins really.

Some bad acting that involved me being filmed from multiple angles opening a front door and accepting a bottle of wine from a producer pretending to be a delivery person.

It is a non-speaking role although I did speak so they had better cut that bit out.

I know. And my grandmother worked for BBC News too. The shame.

I've just been filmed by ITN so under no circumstances are you to watch TV tonight.

This is gold. They’re both pretending to be people they’re not. For once I actually want to know more about these people. They should come back next week and tell us how they do their washing.

In my head I always sing “fiscal headroom” to the tune of Instant Replay by Dan Hartman. Hope this helps.

That's a lot of months.

It's not a question anyone would ask. You would expect to be told.

"Forbidden" is the name Musk will give this website when he buys it for £200bn in 2030.

“Who is Peter Mandelson?”, asks the BBC News website.

Hopefully the person at the BBC responsible for asking all these questions on the BBC News website will be one of the 10% who takes redundancy.

We all knew that Mandelson was picked as US ambassador because he was a dodgy git who would be likely to be able to make a deal with a dodgy regime. And most people seemed to approve of this at the time.

Did a bit of local election campaigning today. "Fuck off, I hope you lose!" from an elderly gentleman in a purple dressing gown was one of the less encouraging responses.

Tonight's theatre concerns the 1986 confrontation between Rupert Murdoch and the Society of Graphical and Allied Trades.

Some professional interviewers could learn a thing or two from these people. Incisive questioning but they are genuinely interested to know the answers and are full of empathy.

All episodes of The Assembly are tremendous but the Nicola Sturgeon one is just sublime.
