Well I'm pleased ENO is bringing back the Peter Konwitschny Traviata and having Iphigenie en Tauride performed in London is an all too rare a treat. Do enjoy, Londoners and a lot of contemporary work in addition to these 😉

So utterly bored of the fancy dress of any guise. Just run give the money to charity -the end- plus it makes the actual running more difficult.

Let him sink 😂

The Volkswagen ID. Buzz Robotaxi Is Hitting LA Streets On-road testing of VW’s fully autonomous ID. Buzz minivans is now underway in Los Angeles.

This makes so much more sense than the Tesla idiocy. This would be the perfect vehicle for airport transfers for instance.

Digital expertise isn't something you'd associate with the BL considering the embarrassing hack to their systems that paralysed all of their online services.

UK to appeal against tax ruling cutting VAT on public electric car chargers to 5% HMRC confirms it will fight London tax tribunal’s finding that it has been overcharging for years under the law

The usual double speak of this government, you're either serious about energy transition or you're not. With more use of rapid charging they will still make the VAT money due to higher adoption. But will make public charging a lot more affordable

At this stage the Israelis will just accept any old endorsement even if it's coming from someone as shitty as Boy George 😂

Quite a look for BBC News Wales this evening

The Greek Eurovision entry now has its own platformer retro game 😂

Ο Δ. Δασκαλόπουλος ολοκληρώνει τη δράση του ΝΕΟΝ: "Ποτέ δεν μου πήγε το 40 χρόνια φούρναρης" Ως κεραυνός εν αιθρία έπεσε σε δημοσιογραφικό γεύμα η ανακοίνωση εκ μέρους του ιδρυτή του οργανισμού που, σύμφωνα με πολλλούς, άνοιξε τα μάτια της κοινωνίας στη σύγχρονη τέχνη, του τερματισμού της λει...

Interesting that the Athens based contemporary art foundation by Daskalopoulos (he's the Saatchi of Greece) will close next year. Giving away his collection was the prelude

Shabana Mahmood swears at ‘white liberal’ hecklers over Reform remarks Home secretary accuses protesters of trying to ‘delegitimise’ concerns people have over immigration

My question is why was she even on a comedian's podcast? Well-done to the hecklers. The fact she swore at them seems such a lack of self control you wouldn't expect a senior politician to have.

Those brackets 😂

Bloody American collectors and their taste for garish frames 😂

I demand luxury automated communism for Wales 😉

Hi doggo

You've got to laugh at the probability of cutting income tax and yet somehow improving public services...that old Tory magic trick 😂 they really take people for idiots. Hoping proportional representation and the smart people of Wales will not give them any power

They certainly wasted cash sending a leaflet to our household 😂

Mass shooting rampage in Louisiana leaves eight children dead and others wounded Suspect was fatally shot, according to Shreveport police, who say victims ranged in age from 18 months to 14 years

No gun outrage is outrageous enough for the Americans to actually do anything about it.

Queen Elizabeth II: Her Story, Our Century review – apparently she was very good at shaking hands This royalist-pleasing hagiography is highly basic – and skims rapidly over the darker side of the crown. If you’ve seen The Crown, you know it all already

Sounds like sycophantic nonsense

So lucky to have this place and can't wait for the Serbian Gold Quince to open its exquisite flowers, the second tree planted last autumn and has done so well. Tonnes to plant still and a new hedge. They say gardening is relaxing 😂 rewarding more like.

Engagement on here seems to be even worse than Twitter...makes you wonder if it's worth posting anymore. No wonder a lot of accounts that had been inactive over there have started once more 🤔

Turner Contemporary art gallery receives £865k funding award The funding comes as part of the government's £1.5bn Arts Everywhere Fund.

Of course worth remembering that the gallery was built with below intentional standard environmental controls in order to keep the price down. Many of the humidity and temp requirements have eased a bit in the intervening years. It's a good time to invest
