I found these painte ‘Hattie’ leaves today amongst a box of family keepsakes. They are souvenirs from Pitcairn Island. I remember somebody once mentioning that a relative had been there, these must be from that trip.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

For the first time ever, London has met legal limits for nitrogen dioxide. When I became Mayor, we were told it would take 193 years. We did it 184 years earlier than expected. Cleaner air means a healthier city and big savings for the NHS.

This is a fantastic piece and lays bare the tightrope that Starmer and the Labour government is walking. I think the way Starmer is connecting to the EU, is spot on. Please all ‘rejoin now’ merchants, please read this.

All but certain to be more Labour vs Conservative than Labour vs Reform contests in the 85 seats Labour must defend for a majority & the 200+ seats it could lose to someone. But more Labour v Reform contests in 2029 than 2024 (half a dozen). Reform's 89 second places inc many where it is nowhere

Sunday Times says McSweeney believes there is more chance "Reform eclipses the Conservatives than the Conservatives eclipse Reform". (Neither scenario is esp likely: more likely Labour 2029 faces contests with 4 different challenger parties when defending seats)

I have two robins in the same part of the garden, there was only one before Christmas. I thought they were normally solitary birds so does that mean they might be a mating pair and there will be robin babies later this year?

England's children's homes run by private equity rake in millions. Private firms own 83% of homes. Average charge for a child in care is £281,000 a year. Some charge £63,000 a week per child. For-profit homes provide the worse care. End privatisation scam.
