St. Michael’s Mount, Cornwall

Up & along the South West Coast path for a bit!

There’s a copy of a draft script he worked on based on my father’s autobiography ‘A boy in your situation’. Never got past the early stages in the late 70’s but it makes an interesting read. www.theguardian.com/stage/2025/n...

Made it down to Sennen Cove just in time to catch the sunset

🔥 Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances. A new decade-long Brexit study quantifies it: A 6–8% hit to GDP That's £180bn-£240bn a year It means less tax revenue and so less money for everything. Brexit made Britain MUCH poorer.

I’m a past winner of the Orwell Prize & won partly because I exposed Vote Leave’s unlawful activities. Michael Gove was its co-convener & refused to answer a single q. He’s now a judge of the prize & our world is truly one that Orwell would recognise bylinetimes.com/2025/11/25/m...

In 2021 Good Law Project went for an Orwell Prize for uncovering the Covid PPE VIP lane - an issue which helped bring down the last Government. We didn't even get shortlisted - one of the judges was a Director General under the last Government working on... the Covid response. 😂

John Major, "Populism is no longer a fringe problem of a few outlandish politicians. It is now mainstream and professional" "We should recognise the threat it poses to democracy" "Democracy has a lot to lose" "Established political parties need to defeat populism, not copy it"

Until this or any other Gvt rejoins the Single Market this will continue to be the case for decades to come! #Brexit www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Brr!

This alone should be enough to prosecute him. What a cnut www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Ex-leader of Reform UK in Wales sentenced to 10.5 years in prison for taking bribes for pro-Russia interviews and speeches. Who else was involved,? Party can now add treason to racism, misogyny, islamaphobia, economic illiteracy as its electoral credentials.

From James O’Brien this morning. ‘The journalists who blew so much smoke up his (Johnson’s) bony arse smoke-rings came out of his mouth.’ @mrjamesob.bsky.social utterly brilliant. Your opening section was so bang on today. 👍👏👏👏

It never stops. The grubby donations. The profiteering. The lobbying. The lies. “In 2019-20, as the UK was leaving the EU, Harborne gave £10m to Nigel Farage’s Brexit party, since renamed Reform UK.” They make damn sure they get what they want. We get screwed. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Then it’s not a ‘ceasefire’ is it! @theguardian.com

Light’s going fast but Bess needs to run!

#MiniMe Of course they have

It’s just runoff, but looks like a piece by #AndyGoldsworthy!

‘Funny’ how these billionaires want to give £ to the very people who destroyed the economy & supported Brexit that makes trading harder www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

If he does that mean we can sue him for all the agreed lies that he spouted every single moment he’s conscious www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Anyone else have this as a child?Just found my copy (1968).

Another Tory 💩s in the BBC’s nest & off he fcuks. The stuffing of BBC News high-ups with Conservatives has been happening since the naughties. It feels with the purpose of undermining not only its News but the Corporation as a whole. www.theguardian.com/media/2025/n...

@bristolgreenparty.bsky.social @carladenyer.bsky.social this is what we need around Bristol. 50 kWh charges about every 50m London. If you want people start ditching ICE cars then we need to see this. You can’t rely on Home charging to keep up with the massively increasing demand.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social i’m having a bit of a wobbly moment listening to this remix of ‘free as a bird’ which finally does justice to John Lennon singing mixed with the other Beatles. Waiting for the anthology4 to be fully released. music.apple.com/gb/album/fre...

Out in #AshtonCourt #Bristol

Do you think there’s any chance that the people who think we didn’t land on the moon, Paul McCartney is dead, Brexit supporting, fascist and racist, climate change denying flat earthers could all just fcuk off & when they’ve fcuked off keep fcuking off until some sort of sanity has returned.

Walking with Bess #LeighWoods #Bristol #Autumn #Fall

Frottage continuing to channel his inner Trump. When even the Tories say it’s ‘rambling & incoherent’. Tbh he’ll probably take that as a compliment!

Hannan and Frost in the Telegraph. Sunak in the Times. Kwasi Kwarteng in the iPaper. Johnson in the Mail. Gove editing the Spectator. Farage everywhere. All of them shamelessly honking out their ‘Listen to me!’ garbage, as the country flails around in the unbelievable mess they’ve made. Nauseating.

Having lived in Clifton all my life, I remember the time that the image on the left was taken. Apparently, the image on the right will mean the ‘death of Clifton’. Personally I’d like to see the whole area pedestrianised from the bottom of Regent’s Street to the top of the Mall. Think Malaga!
