Not that anyone asked, but the country with the World's lowest life expectancy (Chad) has a higher life expectancy than the country with the highest life expectancy 120 yrs ago (Sweden). Think Science and especially Medicine has somehow failed you? Think again. #ScienceMatters

On the anniversary of the day Margaret Thatcher resigned, let us take a moment to remember what a cruel, heartless piece of shit she was.

Another great session @elysiumswansea with the wonderful Gwen. Here is the 15 minute pose. #lifedrawing #nudeportrait #nudedrawing #bodypositive #nudemodel #artoftheday #nudefemalemodel #nudeportraitpainting #watercolournude #contemporarydrawing #femalenude

I loathed Johnson from way before he was PM. I remember daily ‘heated debates’ with my then colleagues who adored him & Brexit. Today I hope even they will have to agree he was the worst PM ever. His laziness & incompetence killed our citizens. And he partied. I want him to pay

A shout out to FIP - Radio France's free service - no adverts, great channels, no chit chat - just excellent music, most of which I've never heard before. After months of listening I swear I haven't heard the same track twice. - www.radiofrance.fr

I’m not anyone’s dad so I won’t tell you what you should or shouldn’t do but I don’t think there’s anything more anti-ethical to naturism than generative AI, specifically AI photos. A tech that is 1. destructive to nature 2. Devoid of any humanity or realness. Do with that what you will.

EU investing €546 billion for high speed rail by 2040 E.g. Lisbon to Warsaw, from 38 hours today to 12 hours Pricing to compete with low cost flights Reduce emissions by 80% Jokes on them, they don't have Brexit sovereignty 🤷‍♂️

Another great session @elysiumswansea with Beth. Here are the short poses. I got the pastels out for a change and thoroughly enjoyed myself. #lifedrawing #nudeportrait #nudedrawing #bodypositive #nudefemalemodel #nudeportraitpainting #watercolournude #nudeart #nakedwoman #pasteldrawing

Rachel Reeves says we have a £25 billion black hole Rachel Reeves knows Brexit makes us £40 billion poorer Rejoining the EU would give us a £15 billion surplus Why doesn't Labour want what's best for the UK? Tax rises? That'll be Brexit

“We asked a hundred people to name a government economic priority. You said: cutting spending on disabled kids travelling to school.”

Da iawn, Caerffili. 👏💜

Turns out that here in Cymru we’re not as keen on fascism as some people thought we were. I wonder why that might be?

It's not just Plaid beating the far right in Caerphilly - it is a small party beating a party with big money fossil fuel and tech backers . It's beating the conspiracy nonsense that is so prevalent.

Such a relief that Russia lost in Caerphilly.

If you are watching the Reform Party controlled Councils with their endless mishaps, resignations, fallouts, scandals, mismanagement and sheer comedic idiocy, but still thinking of making these clowns a national government, representing the UK on the global stage, you are literally insane.

The Caerffili by-election on 23 October is a two-horse race between Plaid Cymru and Reform UK. Lindsay Whittle, aka Mr Caerphilly, understands our communities and is the only candidate that will stand up for Wales. If you live in Caerffili and want to keep Reform out – vote Plaid Cymru.
