guys this is so nice :') I love that we're all online watching a thing that's good instead of bad :')

Strikes me as an absurd threat, either we need the 4000 new training places or we don’t

It sickens me to my stomach that the existence of trans people has been wedged into the gap created by successive government's failure to deal with real national problems and made into something so grotesque as to exclude children from their friendship groups.

I'm going through Heathrow for (union related) work travel and I got stopped and asked to participate in an ONS survey. Ended up spending more time trying to recruit the surveyor into @prospectunion.bsky.social than completing the survey 😅

"News and updates from the county of Oxfordshire" the link to Oxfordshire in this one is?

Or Buckinghamshire

One of my worries about this is the number of eyes on bucket 4 is WAY lower. Every university knows how much money flows out of UKRI in grants, but the sustenance of public sector expertise, facilities and infrastructure is relatively out of sight… and yet it is the backbone of national R&D capacity

Shabana Mahmood vows to stick with hardline migration policies after byelection defeat Home secretary will defy ‘plain wrong’ calls from unions and leftwing MPs that she is alienating Muslim voters

Hey ChatGPT, can I die from face-palming?

okay, here it is, the five key takeaways from this by-election:

1. Denton Kebab House
2. The Crispy Cod, Denton
3. Reddish Tandoori, Gorton
4. Cottage Chippy, Gorton
5. The Continental Takeaway, Denton

The impending by-election result nobody can predict will affirm the pre-existing views of everyone.

Looks like we're in line for a new round of Employment Rights Act alarmism.

The Times claims, from a CIPD survey, that 'more than half of businesses expected an increase in workplace conflict.'

In reality, far more employers said each measure would have no impact on conflict or would reduce it.

the loss of the World Service would be a tragedy and huge lost of soft power for Britain

"News and updates from the county of #Oxfordshire (Oxon), UK"

this guy is getting appropriately ratioed but I want to summarise the issue very succinctly, as somebody who owns a house and *has been a landlord*: everybody needs shelter. Housing is an essential service.
Like water, like electricity, like the roads. Therefore, it should not be an investment.

A woodcut of a bird beside the text "is this a productive use of your time?"

And it's about making mainstream politicians realise that the mythical "floating voter" is only to the right because the currents running through their information networks are pushing them there.

You "win" them by countering those currents. Not by diving in to that side of the water yourself.

My recipe for world peace is that all these people should get to Davos by a nice ride on a little red Rhätische Bahn train, rather than airport transfer or helicopter or whatever.

No-one has ever been in a bad mood, or felt combative after a nice ride on a little red Rhätische Bahn train.

What3words is an opaque techy non-solution that seeks to lock people into a proprietary system that replaces a better system that was working perfectly fine. They're almost the last company I'd want to see influencing how government thinks

Hoping that I will soon have the opportunity to present my Bronze Swimming Certificate to Robert Jenrick.

Civil service trade unions call for urgent action on pensions Prospect and the other members of the National Trade Union Committee have written to the Cabinet Office to demand...

Along with other civil service unions, we have written to the Cabinet Office calling for urgent action on pension scheme administration and delays to pension payments since the transfer to Capita.

According to this FT article, Sir Paul Nurse says: “I’m afraid there’s many bad people around, but they have made scientific advances.”

The ‘but’ in this quote says it all…

So don’t blame us when we lose faith in institutions that regard integrity as irrelevant to designating scientific greatness.

There are MANY issues with Starmer’s messaging. But I always thought this govts best and easiest bet was to become THE government of the rules and fair play. Led by a former lawyer, lean into fairness, equality, law and order, justice for workers, respect for international law.

They ought to cast Celebrity Gladiators like I’m A Celebrity and get at least one person who us political weirdos have heard of. Why can’t Chris Whitty take on Gauntlet and Duel?

Another apologist for Starmer’s betrayal of workers with the U-Turn on employment rights.

@gryall.uk

I suspect we largely agree on the increased vulnerability of younger workers in the workplace.

You assume a lot about my views and things I am "ignoring" based on very little
