Tutankhamun’s ‘Duck Head’ shoes! 1330–1323 BC. Extraordinary sandals with gold insoles and gold daisies on a lapis lazuli beaded background - but the standout detail has to be the teeny-tiny gold duck heads projecting from the top strap! 🦆🦆❤️ Grand Egyptian Museum, Cairo 📷 by me #Archaeology

As the day gets hotter - and the heat is totally abnormal here in Dorset currently - wildlife will be seeking out water as a priority. If you have one of those "ornamental" water baths stuck out in the full sun then consider moving it into deep shade if you can & keep it topped-up. #birds #bto #rspb

This #DearEngland drama gets better and better.

“Respecting” the result of a referendum held 10 years ago, when it’s increasingly clear that it was won on the basis of a pack of lies and that Brexit is doing massive damage to Britain’s economy, status & influence in the world, is a total abdication of responsibility.

At last! A paperback edition of all the poems from The Hypnotiser - the poems that kicked off our YouTube channel ‘Kids’ Poems and Stories with Michael Rosen’ . Watch the vids: read the poems!

Some 2,000 years ago, a Roman fresco painter transformed a room into an enchanting garden filled with lush plants, trees, and birds, all under a clear blue sky! 🌿🌳🐦‍⬛ 😍 House of the Golden Bracelet, Pompeii 📷 by me #FrescoFriday #Archaeology

10 years on the argument about Brexit would be very different from the lies many were fed and believed in. Disappointing 😞 #C4news

He’s bored with Iran so looking for somewhere else to meddle with #C4news

Do tell us where young people are emigrating to? #C4news

Good decision. Keep #Palantir out of our country as much as possible. They already have one foot in the door. A sinister Trojan horse facilitating outside interests and fascist American control. #London #SadiqKhan #ukpolitics #CitizenData #Newsnight #r4today #c4news www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

More than 60 Labour MPs call for review of UK voting system They are backing a new national commission to examine the current system for elections to the House of Commons and recommend reforms. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

#C4news may want to report on this? 🇨🇦🇪🇺

The difference in prices between 3 supermarkets in my area and the other one where I shop weekly shows there is no competition at all. #C4news

The answer is profits and shareholders and a touch of greed by supermarkets #C4news

He kept the donation because the system lets him do that. All donations to MPs need to be abolished #PMQs

Where is The Speaker? Surely he could keep this weekly debate respectful and devoid of personal attacks #PMQs

What a sorry spectacle we get every single week forgetting the world is watching this unbecoming s****** #PMQs.

Politicians always refer to the cost of living crisis as it only affects us the plebs which is partly true as they continue to benefit from perks for their subsidised food, drinks, homes and energy costs. Renationalising water, energy, mail etc etc is the only way to lower costs #PMQs

No Lib Dems/Greens on this panel for a variety of opinions rather than the usual 'we had a referendum' mantra which was 10 looooong years ago. Let's move on from this stance. A Referendum is not a once in a lifetime opportunity unless you are Reform. People do change their minds #PoliticsLive

Worth watching #Falling on C4. Good drama so far.

No hint of a challenge to the bs coming out of that Reform mouth 😡 #C4news

Just came across the cringiest ad ever on the other side involving the DfE and some celebrity … no idea who she is… being invited by the Education Secretary in for a chat. Unbelievable 😒

Seldom do I know what the subject of the day is going to be when I'm out taking photos. Today, it turned out to be chipmunks. #wildlife #chipmunk

Tesco boss’s pay rises by more than £1m to £10.8m. 3m Britons skip meals, can't afford to buy food. Tesco profits hit £3.15bn. There are no controls of fat-cattery. Shareholder votes are advisory, not binding. Workers have no say. Customers have no say.

Sneaking a giant screen into the flagshagger march is one of the funniest things @ledbydonkeys.org have ever done. "STAY HYDRATED" 😂🤣😂

Crikey, this is significant. All about Orban's regime showering money on populism abroad including the UK. David Frost mentioned as an alleged recipient, plus Unherd and The Spectator. So much for pushing back against foreign interference. H/t @guystall.bsky.social

A very good afternoon to the absolute hero who organised and parked this beauty in the middle of little Tommy’s far-right hate march. ❤️

PMs who leave office get awarded a yearly sum of money to carry out certain duties. Is that not enough of a present? #bbcaq

Maybe this question is jumping the gun...The current PM is still in office. Get to serious questions Ms Forsyth #bbcaq
