How DARE they sleep on the streets close to rich people?

Did Underage Girls Ruin Politics? Tomorrow in the @nytimes.com

And I'm utterly fed-up. The last few days have been full of moments where things only my sister and I would have laughed at have popped into my head, and I realised there was nobody else to share a lifetime of laughing about them with. Also, having been given the boot from my 'nice' freelance gig...

I don't know if it's my age, but almost everyone I know is having a terrible time at the moment. Bereavement, illness, elderly parents, work (or lack of) problems. Hard to see the end of it sometimes.

She'd have been better off spending the money on therapy, really.

Dear God, please...

Imagine my surprise.

Anyway, having been into town to pick up bits I bought to zhuzh up the place I no longer work and bring them home - whilst wearig some of my sister's boots that rubbed so much my ankles look like mince - I am going to lie on the sofa and watch @pbs.org programmes about Paris, then the Rosenbergs.

Whilst this is an incredibly sad story, to move abroad in later life and not check what your health care will be is a bit stupid.

Glad this story is finally public but also incredible that it is taking media so long to dig up what is essentially open knowledge in these communities rn.

Hedge fund billionaire Sir Paul Marshall funds History Reclaimed, Pharos Trust, the Institute of Economic Affairs, Legatum, Nigel Biggar, Robbie Gibb and GB News. Join the dots.

Dear new US followers, welcome, I hope not to disappoint - here you'll mostly find world news. As an intro, here is one of our recent #TheGlobalJigsaw episodes - The Trump effect on global media www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w... Pls let us know what you think 🙏🏻

Well, imagine my surprise. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

A genuinely cheering thing here: there's a positive correlation between trust and consumption in the main cluster.

Amused that Trump's lawyers really sent the legal letter to: BBC Television Centre, London W12 8QT. I wonder if they included a self addressed envelope for a reply and called 018118055 to confirm receipt. www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/tru...

RIP Richard Darbyshire. This is such a lovely song. youtu.be/mWHRnraNiKc?...

Oh, this woman. Men online tell her she looks 50, and she's the most beautiful woman they've ever seen. I wish I had her delusion...er, confidence. youtu.be/on87kOqYCiE?...

not many people know this, but when the bbc doesn't have a director general its staff are allowed to come in not in uniform and bring in board games

‼️The Pro-Trump Bias of the 'Neutral' Sources in the Leaked BBC 'Prescott Dossier' @nafeez.bsky.social’s analysis of key sources in the memo about the BBC’s alleged ‘progressive bias’ shows it relied on highly partisan right-wing, Trump-aligned organisations bylinetimes.com/2025/11/11/p...

Hey, any other ex-teachers out there? I'm looking to put something together to help the community, particularly those with children struggling to access education. Watch this space, but also get in touch if you have any kind of teaching qualification or experience x

If you'd like to hear @seththevoz.bsky.social voicing Lord Brabazon, look out for the next episode of More Jam Tomorrow. morejamtomorrow.com

What an amazing story. What an amazing woman. What an amazing journalist. www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

Foreign country is different, but the weather and the wine are amazing. I should be so lucky.

My More Jam Tomorrow research has turned up Lord Brabazon of Tara. Brabazon was an early aviator. In 1909, to prove that pigs could fly, he attached a pig in a waste-paper basket to his biplane.

I am the very model of a new director general I've worked on many programmes from EastEnders through to Benny Hill If I see any bias, I will make sure it's ephemeral I am the very model of a new director general

Who thinks someone's head has been photoshopped?

If I had a national institution I wanted to undermine, Hanover Communications are who I’d go to. They’ve been undermining the NHS for years, successfully lobbying for firms to get NHS ££, including US giant United Health, & providing staff to pro-private politicians. It’s just what they do.

Columbo in his first episode looks like a dog that's just come back from the groomer

On Armistice Day, a piece my Dad wrote about a horrific moment in a WWII battle in Tobruk. Just two lines about those poor dead boys will haunt me forever. worldwar2diary.blogspot.com/2008/03/last...

The Saudi regime has executed Abdullah al-Derazi, under 18 at the time of his alleged crimes, linked to him attending demonstrations against the regime. In August, the Saudis had executed Jabal Labbad, also arrested as a minor, in his case for attending demonstrations and funerals.

It takes an obscene amount of hubris to lecture the BBC when you have The Telegraph’s record on truth-telling. Some of the paper’s errors this year are so bad they’re almost laughable 👇🏻

I'm at the dentist, and they've put an artsy print of a molar next to a bunch of lilies on a small table and it feels like I'm at a funeral for a tooth

Written by a bloke, who attacks both overly sexy and frumpy clothes. He doesn't seem to like any clothes that women wear for practical reasons. It's not even funny. www.dailymail.co.uk/lifestyle/fa...

Excellent read, particularly on how Gibb and Goodman behaved when at the Beeb.

Please performatively read my novel.

'The Rowers.' (1924) Manuel Losada is one of the key names in the modern Basque painting of the early 20thC - his work was praised by both Gauguin and Degas, and one can argue, there is a certain Degas-like expression of movement in this picture.

This woman at October Films is: "responsible for the day to day running of the company and has managerial oversight of all productions through to Delivery", so I'd like to hear her take on the Panorama about Trump which her company produced. octoberfilms.co.uk/about/#/jane...

When Boris Johnson was Prime Minister one of his senior advisers confided to me that one of the only things in politics his boss actually cared about was “killing off the BBC”. Five years on, and it is a campaign that appears to be finally coming to fruition. bylinetimes.com/2025/11/10/t...

I've read this feature about 27, 000 times. At least she's recycling. Also, glad you can afford to move to Hampstead now. www.dailymail.co.uk/lifestyle/ar...

Post Office Horizon IT contract extended for another year. PO to pay £41m to Fujitsu. Fujitsu was instrumental in persecution of innocent postmasters. £1.2bn compensation paid from public purse. More to follow. Fujitsu haven't paid a penny, no one has been charged. Why is Fujitsu being rewarded?

Good morning readers; Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands. In the towns near Ukraine's frontline, Russian FPV drones hunt civilians, a new tactic called a "human safari". Yana, who lives in Kherson, regularly sees these drones and the damage they cause.

"A tax on extreme wealth isn’t just about raising money; it’s about restoring fairness and showing that the government stands with the many, not the few." - PMUK's Phil White writes in @labourlist.bsky.social https://labourlist.pulse.ly/peyg6orcjp

If you don’t like the BBC, I suggest that you go to America and watch their TV for a day. It gives you a migraine. The BBC also keeps the standards of the other outlets relatively high. If you think we watch shit now, imagine it with no BBC. And they actually care about drama, children’s, factual.

Sky News just had Kelvin Mackenzie on, former editor of The Sun, one of the people at the centre of probably the most disgraceful front page in newspaper history, complaining about BBC journalists not being objective and 'fake news'. Astonishing. ~AA

The terrible thing is, this doesn't surprise me. When I was working in Birmingham recently, I've never seen so many people who were obviously homeless, or with mental health or addiction issues as I did in the immediate area of where this poor woman was murdered.

Incredible that Robbie Gibb - most influential person on BBC board by many accounts and from journalists I speak in BBC - was involved in setting up GB News. GB News of course has breached Ofcom rules on *multiple* occasions - no sign of resignations though www.theguardian.com/environment/...
