And Fuerteventura way 🚲 😊

It's still a wonderful feeling, eating the freshly picked raspberries whilst picking the tomatoes, although quite a few of those will be eaten before they get to the kitchen.

We will be properly honouring ‘Daniel Hannan Day’ on Tuesday with all the requisite pomp, circumstance & documentary evidence of what an irredeemable arse he is that you would expect. Elevating our world’s wrongest man to the House of Lords will always be the essence of Brexit.

Calls grow to address safety risks of large vehicles in urban areas Concerns over the safety impact of increasingly large vehicles on European roads have been reignited following a warning from Euro NCAP and the publication of new research by the London School of…

New research highlights mounting dangers posed by SUVs and other large passenger vehicles, particularly to vulnerable road users such as pedestrians and cyclists.

Somehow managed to make it through 12 years of schooling and an English degree without reading The Grapes of Wrath until now, and what better way to escape the moment than reading about people displaced by climate disaster and technology

Well I'll go to the top of my stairs!

Andrew Neil’s latest column of shitspangle. This time ‘explaining’ that Donald Trump’s depravity has only become clear in the last week.

The last *seven days*?
What *we* have *always feared*?
What an irredeemable fraud he is.
Gets a whole chapter in ‘How They Broke Britain’.
And here he is now, ‘seeing the light’.

Danny Dyer voiceover: “Twat.”

Any pruning or apple tree climbing tips other than green wellies being the perfect footwear?

Good morning all! 🇺🇦

Please share everywhere. 🙏🏻

Mixed half and half with my Salt Pot, too sweet last year's cider made for an excellent drink.

Emptied the old garage / brewing shed of 30 years of accumulated detritus into hastily erected temporary army tent prior to anticipated erection of replacement at the end of the month. Will spend most of today attempting to secure said tent to planet earth in anticipation of tomorrow's hooley.

New: Starmer ready to offer Youth Mobility Scheme Keir Starmer's youth mobility proposal aims to strengthen UK-EU relations, addressing labour shortages and opportunities

Finally!! Great news - congratulations to all who campaigned for this 👏👏Now we need to make it as inclusive as possible eg covering colleges & apprenticeships @europeanmovement.co.uk

I'm not sure if I've read this correctly, but I'm sure it'll be quite a party 🎉.

I love how Trump, Vance and Musk style themselves defenders of free speech, while simultaneously banning government agencies from mentioning climate change or diversity (inc biodiversity!), equity and inclusion, or even possessing maps which show the Gulf of Mexico.
Torquemadas the lot of them.

BBC One - Question Time, 2025, 13/02/2025 Fiona Bruce presents an hour of topical debate from Northwich in Cheshire.

Question Time last night was pretty fierce. And had to be. There's a deliberate effort now to shift the ground: towards appeasement, inhumanity and authoritarianism. Once more, we must resist it. We must fight hard for kindness.

At least you're our not riding that moped delivering shit food to people too lazy to put on a coat!

Something about a buttered muffin?

If anyone wants proof that vegetables are good for you, this is it. Avara foods pay their employees by pumping their chicken shit into the River Wye and it's catchment, killing the river and destroying a once healthy tourist industry.

Labour bending over to appease Murdoch or trying to imitate the right will not help matters. The billionaire press barons only care about money, not policy, or even Britain. We need a govt that takes a firm stand for the majority and remembers its roots, not Poundland one nation Tories.

The sad part for me was that I'd become concerned about Letbys conviction a long time ago after reading threads on Twitter and then X. A reminder that Twitter / X was a useful tool before it fell into disrepair.

Lucy Letby murder convictions: what did the expert panel find? Group concludes babies died due to natural causes or errors in medical care, saying there was no evidence of deliberate harm

An absolutely damning indictment of care at the Countess of Chester Hospital by a panel of world experts

This is what comes of convictions based upon no scientific evidence

Having robbed our youth of the freedoms we enjoyed whilst in the EU, surely a youth mobility scheme is the least we can give them - it falls far short of “free movement” because it only allows individuals to come for a limited period & does not allow them to settle in the UK or EU member state

The book I spent many a happy hour quoting to a fishing pal. 'Dam, he's smashed me gut' was a regular refrain during our largely unsuccessful fishing trips. My pal, in the style of Mr Crabtree, 'I'll use this beautiful Hardy split cane thing of beauty Peter, you can use this beaten up old stick".

Absolutely it can.

Huge brain gain potential.

Has she an identical twin living in rural Herefordshire?

i don't have a joke here, i just think it's rad as hell that this guy is making tiny tiny homes that are attached to bikes for people experiencing homelessness in toronto

Just butt out Musk.

5 years on from Brexit, there is still no workable solution to the creative touring crisis facing artists and crew wanting to tour the EU and conversely the UK.

We’re seen a 74% reduction in UK artists touring the EU, and with increasing difficulty obtaining US visas, the opportunities for UK
