Angela Rayner gives councils green light to sell off allotments Labour's Angela Rayner has approved the sale of eight allotment sites in England since the party came to power, according to a report in the Telegraph. The move has been branded a "kick in the teeth" ...

Another bad move by ‘Labour’. Telling councils to sell off what few assets they have left as opposed to giving them the funding they need is nothing short of Tory austerity.

Allotments are incredible shared spaces. This is not the change people voted for.

Remind me the trick to differentiate between horse and cow teeth. I think I have it, but it’s a long time since I properly checked.

Cards on the table, we’ve been looking for a very long time now, and STILL haven’t found York’s amphitheatre… 😩🫣

My present trowel (WHS with wooden handle, obviously) is Goliath VII. His heavily worn sires are still brought out to assist with fiddly features every now and then, but sadly Goliath I, II, and V were lost to various mishaps.

I’m not one for hyperbole, but my little mate, Dippy, is the most handsome cat that ever did cat. 🐈‍⬛

I’m a huge fan of Ghibli’s Laputa, and this art really speaks to me. I don’t even know why, there’s just something magical about it.

1/6 VE Day celebration should be a time to consider how the far right politics of those defeated 80 years ago have worked their way back over the last decade.

Some people say that it’s possible to have too many guitars, and they are all wrong 🤘🏻

The little hole is fairly new I think. I’ll be glued to the window tonight 🤣

Having spotted hedgehog poo in my garden over the last few weeks, I’d wondered if I might have a resident hoggie. I just noticed what seems to be a nest in a pile of grass cuttings under a hedge, can any knowledgeable #hedgehog folk confirm this? 🦔

Love everything about this. Keep up the fantastic work!

Sending love and solidarity to my friends in the trans community today. Always here for a natter 🏳️‍⚧️

A peerless snorter of public funds willl now be set for life, while his achievements would have room to spare on the back of a postage stamp. Another normal day on Brexit Island.

Black Rose and Johnny the Fox for me. And I have a lot of love for Thunder and Lightning, you’ll struggle to find a more glorious LP cover!

LOVE a bit of Lizzy! 🥀

My old boy, Dippy, hasn’t been able to go outside since a near-fatal injury from a cat fight, so I’m very happy to say that he’s taken to little walks around the garden on a lead like an absolute pro.

So grateful to share my life with this furry little guy 🐈‍⬛

Instead of slashing welfare and disability benefits — forcing more disabled people and children into poverty — the government could introduce a 2% tax on assets over £10 million.

It would raise £24 billion — five times the savings from these cuts.

This is austerity 2.0

My beloved Sheffield Wednesday FC ruining another perfectly good weekend 🦉

Opening a fresh bag of coffee may be a close second ☕️

If anyone happens to be in York on Feb 28th, join us at the Golden Ball for some shambolic musical merrymaking!

Oh, what a shame 😏

An absolute joy to meet my brand new niece, Isabella, today. She’s an absolute cuddlebug, I’m in love 🥰

I couldn’t have one between leaving home and 2022 thanks to awful landlords. Can’t explain how happy my two have made me since we adopted them. Good luck with the house hunt! 🐈‍⬛

A long overdue sort out of the spare room has doubled up as a rediscovery of how much I love Death Cab For Cutie. Some genuinely timeless music.

It’s 2025, and @swfc.co.uk are winning with goals from Calum Paterson and Michal Smith! 😂 Lovely stuff from the wise old owls 🦉🔵⚪️ #swfc

I'm very much looking to presenting at the Museums, Health and Well-Being Summit next week. I will discuss how a pro-active approach to pursuing new opportunities has allowed my team to engage underserved audiences.

(Also, listen out for my cat making a guest appearance! 🐈)

The idea of ‘recruiting’ children is so bizarre to me. This brainwashing of our young can’t be allowed to continue.
