One of the huge downsides of moving house during a heatwave is having to tactically close windows so that the cat can't escape 🫠

RollerCoaster Tycoon (1999)

Hello, Jimmy. I just wanted to stop by and let you know we won, and it was worth it. W/O James Hyde 1917-1944, 132 Squadron RAF. Shot down north of Nijmegen, 25 September 1944.

On my way, Clacton.

Football is a crooked sport

MO SALAH MO SALAH RUNNING THROUGH THE MIDDLE

That's robbery. You can't be rewinding play back to the other goal line

So I see that Platner guy with the nazi tattoo is gonna drop out in scandal Absolutely nobody could see that coming eh

Time for a little hatewatch as a treat

Oh good, Ronaldo is finally getting dumped out

Oh and yes, multiculturalism has reinvented the UK for the better. Everything from music to the cuisine. Cultures which remain static wither. Cultures which embrace new ideas thrive. End of story.

Multiculturalism in Britain is a success. Don't listen to trolls who say otherwise

You can't write storylines like sport. Nobody would believe this in fiction

Better late than never. All other Labour MPs ought to follow.

ABSOLUTE SCENES

Remarkable how incompetent the anti-Net Zero lot are. When scientists and politicians first made the case for climate change, they'd often time the press conferences for hot weather, knowing how superficial reporters and the public could be. Now, the antis have the whole thing arse over tit.

I have definitely been feeling hopepilled this past year. My motto has been "no more despair"

So, people of Reading, did you struggle to sleep last night? It was the warmest night on record for the town. The minimum (20.9°C) was warmer than typical June daytime maximum temperatures. Burning fossil fuels has made this heatwave hotter than it would have been without those emissions.

A fifth of Leave voters have died.

Feeding the cat soupy chicken scraps and he's actually eating it. Call it an apology for not letting him outside

How disappointed I feel towards a PM whose conscience probably stings him, but was too frit to use power for good when he got it.

Breaking news: man chased out of home office by panther

Your aim for heat safety should be keeping your dog *not panting*. If they’re panting, they’re heat stressed. If they’re panting at home try to think of ways to cool them, and absolutely don’t even *think* about taking them out. If they start to pant during exercise, stop.

i was right and i’ve been right for sixteen years!!!! (not necessarily about how he’ll do mind you)

Reposting this as a pissed off section of Starmer's coalition. The big failure of this government has been ignoring the values of it's actual supporters

“Don’t piss off every section of the coalition that elected you” is advice that most political scientists would give you for free

What a goal

Reading Kinnock's 1985 speech:

Bellingham really is in this team on reputation alone. (Go on lad prove me wrong)

Tell you what, Madueke is feasting in this team. If he was feeding a pacey striker he'd get loads of assists

The Suez Crisis for the 21st century

Bolliger & Mabillard to build a rollercoaster, do a photo-op riding it with other heads of state, then sell it to the highest-bidding theme park so the public can ride it too.

Is your child up at 9pm arguing about tram networks with the entire staff of the FT and some tedious Americans who are not familiar with the concept of a joke? This report make shock you.

I'll vote for whichever leadership candidate runs on the exact opposite of this.

The most disgusting behaviour I’ve ever witnessed in public spaces was directed at Sadiq Khan by ‘anti-Ulez’ protesters, who of course received way more coverage, much of it friendly, than the scheme’s incredible success ever will.

That incredible feeling when you solve a horrendous git branch divergence between two pieces of work that started simultaneously

This is it. If any councillor or campaign group wants to chat about creating confidence to deliver among fellow councillors and with officers I am very happy to chat, regardless of political affiliation (with the exception of teal coloured fascists). DM me!

An authoritarian government run by a megalomaniac organising a football tournament for propaganda purposes? It can only mean that we're watching Escape To Victory! champ.ly/0fy3uSsv

🚨BREAKING 🚨 Defence Minister John Healey has resigned.

I can't believe I might be left thinking Wes Streeting is the least worst candidate, because he's absolutely grim

Hell yeah cat stremtch

We need leaders who can spell out what's happening clearly and with force.

I am recruiting a Canadian staff scientist position - in X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy - any suggestions on places to place the job advert? (I'll post the advert here in due course once it's approved)

Knuckling down to start what what I told my boss I'd be doing today at 4:23, nbd

This was a fun little quiz

A whole 12% of voters think Brexit has been a success. And just 25% of Leave voters. Sigh.

When the father of a murdered son makes a public statement saying "we do not want his death to be used to create further division, hatred or tension", then I believe it's incumbent on any news outlet reporting on Farage's comments to ensure people know he has chosen to disregard the family's wishes.
