So, tell me again how the ticket price rise is necessary because costs have risen and the extra £1.2m a season it generates is absolutely justified and necessary?

At every press conference Farage and Badenoch should be asked about the absolute hell that Brexit has imposed on every UK citizen, just for the crime of doing business with our closest neighbours, or going on holiday.

If you return unwanted Reform local election leaflets to their party headquarters using their free post address, then it will cost the party £2.50 per envelope.

Please don’t share this information; it could cost Nigel Farage a fortune.

... Love(craft) - Tom Salmon — Book XI

That ‘proud dad’ moment. Our Tom is now a published author, in an American literary philosophy magazine no less.
You don’t need a knowledge of Carver or Lovecraft to enjoy this, but if you do, you’ll find Easter eggs a plenty.
I think it’s bloody magnificent

I have a series of Gretsches and a lot of hollow body Gibsons on that list (and a Jazzmaster, and a Mustang to add to my Fender obsession), then I’ll move to the Les Paul side of things.
Clocks exist, I don’t need to wear one 😂

The crew of Artemis have just named two previously unnamed craters on the moon; ‘Integrity’, after their ship, and ‘Carroll’ after Reid Wiseman’s late wife. An absolutely beautiful moment, truly human and a privilege to witness. We’re a very small world, living in peace should be our only aim.

I’d already ordered the book (having long lamented the absence of Ruth And Martin’s JFK club) but if I hadn’t, the clip here would make me

Karl is, as he is in so many things, completely correct on this. No questions.

@4hundredblows.bsky.social I’m sure you already know about this? (I thought I knew my Kirby but this is new to me)

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"

This matters- it's important not to let outright lies go unchallenged and uncorrected.

I want this kind of public lying by a politician to be covered by Parliamentary Standards with swingeing great penalties, increasing with repetition.

Look, if we start arresting every prominent figure in Britain who's suspected of misconduct in public office it would wipe out half the governing class who run everything. So, it's definitely worth doing.

This is incredible. This is why the right always wants to control art.
