David Walliams finally gets his comeuppance. Well done @harpercollins

I know many of you will be looking forward to this. Rare TV's Digging for Britain returns with a few interesting changes. A great way to start the new year.

The BMA is no friend of the NHS. Remember this when you end up paying for your health care.

I think the residents of Islington deserve to know that this is who @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social has chosen to partner with. The cafes of the Holloway Road and Finsbury Park - they’re coming for you.

So sad, but well worth a read. www.theguardian.com/news/2025/no...

@privateeyenews.bsky.social on the money again.

If flying in or out of Lisbon Airport be warned, the post Brexit passport queue on arrival and departure can be between 90 minutes and two hours. #lisbon

Indigenous rights organization Survival International released a new report identifying 196 uncontacted Indigenous groups in 10 different countries. Half could be wiped out within 10 years without government intervention and protection from violence, organized crime and disease exposure.

We tax payers paid £2m for the security at Prince Andrew’s daughter Eugenie’s wedding. Why?

Let the muck raking end. @jessphillipsmp.bsky.social is the best defender of victims of sexual abuse out there. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Those gunning for @jessphillipsmp.bsky.social are attacking the greatest advocate for the victims of grooming gangs. They’re being duped - it’s called cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Islington are asking residents to fill in this short survey about local parks to help understand what matters most to people and how to best prioritise resources. Complete the survey by 6th November www.letstalk.islington.gov.uk/parks-satisf...

Modern newspaper reporting when it comes to this Labour government. @thetimes.com @dailymail.co.uk @telegraphnews.bsky.social (Cartoon from the Spectator)

How can they speak for Britain if they can’t even spell it?

Tory Conference debate on free speech. You see? Sometimes being "cancelled" is a mercy.

Great to see Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson drop in to speak to Islington residents today. @islingtonnlabour.bsky.social

What a dull second half. #arsenal #afc

That speech really put fire in my belly. The battle is for the soul of our country against the false promises of snake oil salesmen on both the left and right. I’m up for the fight. #labour2025

The questions you get asked on the doorstep: “Does Andy Burnham dye his hair?” Apparently this is a character issue.

It gets worse. leftfootforward.org/2025/09/a-gr...

This quite entertaining. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

“If we are to believe the BBC, all that remains is to select the psalms for the prime minister’s requiem.” Quite right from Philip Stephens. Let’s not join in their hysteria.

Could have got @radiohead.wastehq.social tickets, but what family can afford those prices?

Hello London

Such a provocative sight to see in diverse and vibrant Kentish Town. I love my country but we all know this is about wanting to return to an ossified 1950s Britain.

Folks, Nigel Farage and the Daily Mail think we live in North Korea. Have they lost the plot or does your home and workplace have a photo of our supreme leader to which you genuflect every day?

What a great team.

Tim Allan is an excellent appointment by the Prime Minister.

End of the Road festival.

Such an important victory by @theguardian.com An attempt to silence and bully victims fails www.theguardian.com/media/2025/a...

No comment.

Between Aug 24 and Sept 4, 2015, 78% of the coverage of politicians on CNN focused on Trump. He of course went on to win in 2016. Are the BBC now in danger of doing the same to Farage?

The evidence for more 20mph zones ⤵️ ✔️ Cut deaths and serious injuries by 1/3 ✔️ Protect children ✔️ Reduce crashes ✔️ Lower noise ✔️ Boost walking & cycling

A must read this Summer. A brilliant expose of a totally amoral company- Facebook/Meta. An increasingly malevolent force in global politics that seems beyond the scope of regulators.

Labour haven’t got everything right, but there’s no doubt they’re focused on the issues that will rebuild Britain. www.itv.com/news/2025-08...

One casualty of the rapidly changing television market is the death of the observational documentary. Unless it’s of a celebrity or formatted, commissioners just aren’t interested. A real shame as I loved making them.

An industry in crisis. The volume of job vacancies in TV has fallen by more than half since 2019 although the rate of decline has begun to slow, according to data from The Talent Manager. (Broadcast)

After all the lies thrown at him in the election it’s good to see @prafulnargund.bsky.social joining Neil Kinnock in calling for VAT on private health care inews.co.uk/news/politic...

Antibiotics became widely available in 1945. A chilling thought is without them I wouldn’t be alive today. The same may well apply to you. Don’t be anti-science. Fund medical research.
