Witnessing the rise of Nazis in Germany, Hannah Arendt said: “The death of human empathy is one of the earliest and most telling signs of a culture on the verge of descending into barbarism”. Where is UK heading - attacks on minorities; curbs on human rights, millions in poverty,

I understand the challenges of caring for older relatives, but think this storyline about Carol Tregorran neatly illustrates how older people can feel their agency is being stripped away without proper consultation. #TheArchers

#TheArchers Carol Tregorran rarely goes to church because she worships the old gods. Take the hint, Alan!

Nick Timothy being an islamophobic hate monger should, in any previously "normal" times, be something which absolutely leads to him being sacked. That the leader of the opposition is defending him shows how embedded this type of racism has become in mainstream politics. news.sky.com/story/sack-t...

#TheArchers That was rather good. I've never heard Brian go through the ringer like that. A hug?!

#TheArchers Mulligatawny?! I thought the soup choice was leek-and-potato, cress-and-rice, or celery-and-water-chesnuts at Bridge Farm?

I don't understand what's happening here, so I shouldn't really comment, but I'm rather sceptical about the claims. Nevertheless @numb.comfortab.ly is on point: "At long last, we have created the Matrix from classic sci-fi movie Don't Create The Matrix" www.theguardian.com/games/2026/m...

I simply refuse to believe this isn’t a Chris Morris sketch:

Apparently Exeter is a "dental dessert"...?!

I have a friend, who specialised in how genetics is taught, whose grant was axed by one of these men. His life is in tatters, and his work matters.

#TheArchers Anton klaxon!

Oil prices wouldn't be all over the news today if more of our economy was powered by local, secure renewable energy. This isn't an "energy crisis". It's a fossil fuel crisis. 44% of UK electricity came from renewables in 2025. More of that plus an electrified economy => no more oil shocks.

A large fire ravaged a building in Glasgow on Sunday, forcing the closure of Scotland’s busiest train station, authorities said. Officials said they expected train service to be disrupted at Glasgow Central Station through at least Monday. nyti.ms/4s2Gtjo

#TheArchers JIM: "I see the Middle East is ablaze with an ill-conceived war of aggression by the United States, with the pretext of bringing democracy but all about oil and with rampant disregard for civilian casualties and the aftermath." TRACY: "Not another one!"

All over Pennsylvania today: listening to local residents & getting my teeth stuck into issues 🌱 Priory Rd play park fenced off, maintenance declined & lights down. Why are Labour nowhere to be seen? Such an opportunity to ensure all residents can enjoy the green space, I'm keen to make it happen.

Child rearing is always particularly hard on the Grundy men. Sometimes they’ve had to wait an extra half hour for their dinner. #TheArchers

I see Farage is off to Mar-a-Lago to talk down Britain and suck up to Trump. There's nothing patriotic about cheering on a foreign leader whose illegal war is sending British families’ energy bills through the roof.

#TheArchers Poor Ruairi. All he did was what any of us would've done 🤣

It's Private Eye I feel sorry for. How do you spoof The Daily Mail these days?

Yes, I’m sorry to confirm that Eric Allan, who played Bert so wonderfully, has died. He was a lovely man. #TheArchers

Hmm. A lot of confusion re the ending, but on listening again it was clearly Ursula and Rob has returned from the grave. #thearchers

Hey guys (and I'm talking primarily to my fellow Britons here), I don't want to alarm anyone, but just now I saw a very strange light in the sky. Like a sort of glowing orb? That was too bright to look at? I've been watching the sky for months and haven't seen anything like this before now
