When all we hear is that the UK is 'full up' and that public services are stretched with too many people using them, surely a decrease in growth of population is not a bad thing, right? And if we need to increase the workforce, hire immigrant labour!🙄 www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Hertfordshire's biggest & best LGBTQIA+ celebration - Herts Pride, Sat 30th August. While partying - do remember there are people in countries across the globe who are still unable to live and love openly. The fight is not over for us, until it's over for all of us. @herts-pride.bsky.social

Hard-hitting but rightly so as this is a very real issue that today’s society must tackle. But first, we must understand it, and that’s what this ground-breaking piece of drama offers. A superb cast and outstanding directing, it is a must-see for modern times. www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...
