Every time I see this place I think ‘stoves’ must be Yorkshire parlance for oven bottom muffins
I ❤️ this redevelopment in Stockton but it’s mad that the skyline is going to be dominated by a kids slide
On a lighter note my mum and my stepmum both visited my dad today at the same time which should increase his stock with the other old-timers on the stroke ward
It’s already a failed service seemingly only propped up by a bizarre goodwill narrative on social media
Having my mum-in-law and dad in different hospitals in different towns, both now for a number of weeks, I think it’s time we separate the outstanding level of care and personnel in the NHS from the third world state of treatment and diagnosis…
Why is everyone acting like they've never seen a single episode of Yes Minister?
Not seen a cow in ages
And now it’s affecting government policy, ministers having been dragged into the programmes to be grilled about it who don’t feel they have the electoral bandwidth to say ‘don’t be stupid, we all know this isn’t a real thing.’
Caroline Lucas explains why more drilling in the North Sea wouldn't bring our energy prices down & it would take years to come on line, but what will bring prices down is more renewables & energy efficiency, its quicker to achieve and it doesn't drive climate change #GMB
Football fans from around the world are going to come back from this Festival of Copious Capitalist Excess and demand instant global communism.
Going back in time to tell 2015 me that Trump will get elected which brings about a new plague and then he'll get re-elected for a second term after attempting to overthrow the government and his biggest political foe in 2026 is the Pope who is from Chicago
I'm hearing Putin has turned up at Orban's with a fishing rod and 8 cans.
As an indicator of how fucked up UK politics is, make of it what you will that the massive eurosceptic and 16-years-in autocrat Orban never moved to actually leave the EU. Anyway, well done Hungary. Another big bird flipped in Trump’s direction
20 hours at work does feel like a long day
#brunch not had a Fray Bentos for like 25 years. Was not expecting much but you never forget that soggy undercooked pastry composition and I didn’t detect much in the way of steak
One of America’s top commentators quietly normalising the new moon flyby as unprecedented 🤔
It’s not really Trump though. They’ll get rid of him in a minute when it suits them and what comes next will be real Man in the High Castle stuff…
Just heard about the Nutella product placement in space. A new frontier of capitalism
Activated it earlier today (via Sky Q) so I could binge an obscure ten pin bowling docu series. The kids are now arguing over Friends and Euphoria. The bowling doc isn’t even available in the UK 🤷♂️
The GOAT
was that Melania speech one of Iran’s demands
The White House now, figuratively, emulating this gif, but alternating between 'Epstein files' and 'Iran War'.
An American gammon right there. That’s the only wall of his house without guns and flags
Europe stood up to Trump over Greenland and he back pedalled, the people of Iran stood up to him and he has completely embarrassed himself. Just need America to stand up to him now
Yesterday, the crew of the ISS called the crew of #Artemis2 and had a short conversation in between their busy schedules of research and documentation (I promise, to a scientist, that's more fun than it sounds!)
This was the first ship-to-ship communications ever to take place in space. #NASA
Some space dudes are further from earth than anyone ever, but rather than positively spinning the American dream Trump is dicing Middle East decimation with a Central American client state…
This festival is finished after this year and Live Nation couldn’t give af. Their insurance will cover the sponsor issues and, like you say, ticket sales will still see them break even 🤷♂️
