My dad was a crime reporter on the Luton News in 1975.

Just a couple of the highlights from just one page of a British Newspaper Archive search 😆

Clear out toys now!

Love being reminded to do this every year. It's a win/win all round

Marvellous

It blows my mind that there are real people who see a post like this and actually believe the whole “Christmas is being cancelled by Muslims” BS 🙄

Let’s have a quick look at what’s happening to Sheffield so you can put your Express reading uncle’s mind at ease!😆

Why Council Tax Reform Is Fraught With Difficulty New analysis shows why council tax reform is such a hard task for the government as it faces widespread calls for the system to be updated.

Brilliant article, which demonstrates the mad outcomes of changing council tax without revaluation. The tax system is already arbitrary, irrational and unfair. That must change, or the same old problems will persevere.

Let’s take a look at the whole “there are too many black people on TV” thing, shall we?

After Pochin claimed Black people in TV adverts “made her mad”, all her supporters tried to use 👇🏼 as their excuse for why she was somehow justified in her overt racism.

Chart from Office of Rail and Road (HMG) showing annual and quarterly passenger rail journeys for Great Britain from April 2015 to March 2025.

In Great Britain, there are about 1.7 billion passenger rail journeys each year without serious incident (about 150 million a month). It's worth keeping perspective as news media discuss banning knives on trains or installing scanners at stations.

Wow - those are quite phenomenal headlines given the details of the story.

Ahh look, he’s just a ‘nerdy’ guy. No harm done.

My book 'How To Say No Emphatically In German' now available - only £9.99!

Treasury minister leading budget plans spent £900 on desk Torsten Bell, who is working with Rachel Reeves to fill a £30 billion hole in finances, also used his parliamentary expenses to claim £600 for three chairs

Totally untrue garbage from @thetimes.com & @dailymail.co.uk today - smear dressed up as journalism. Some facts:
- There is no “£900 desk”
- my constituency office has Ikea desks/chairs
- we significantly underspent the new MPs allowance to set up an office

Today’s Times gives “urged” the entirely new meaning of “a lukewarm mention in the middle of a 66 page report”.

Latest stats on greenbelt land published today - I think people are always surprised by this map, which shows that the large majority of land across England is neither built up, nor greenbelt. Most of it's just ordinary, unprotected farmland. www.gov.uk/government/s...

"We can't have particular communities where there's a heavy preponderance of one group or another. That's the kind of country I want my kids to be growing up in," says Jenrick, who lives in Herefordshire where 96.9% of the population identified as white in 2021

‘Polling commissioned by POLITICO shows the government’s agri-food deal agreed in principle with Brussels is popular with Remainers and Leavers alike — even when they're told it means following EU rules.

Javier Milei had to beg a bail-out and already needs another. Argentina's economy is in a tailspin. Gov't bonds and peso in freefall. People starving, throwing rocks at him.

Farage last year: "He's amazing. It's Thatcherism on steroids. Cutting and slashing expenditure. That's leadership."

Labour have been on the attack, branding Reform UK policies "racist" . A new YouGov poll for @itvpeston.bsky.social examines what Britons think

party is generally racist: 47% (net +11)
voters are generally racist: 43% (net +8)

Is there a reason I ask that the Times are using a picture of asylum seekers in a boat to describe rules for migrants who came on legal routes such as skilled worker visas for doctors?

A hall of mirrors image showing the cast of "Spaced", but their multiple reflections show them all in different poses.

"I let my principles get in the way of things. I punched a bloke in the face once for saying Hawk the Slayer was rubbish."

Channel 4 aired the first episode of 'Spaced' on this day in 1999.
