With more of my life behind me than ahead, still baking bread, still cooking and trying to find words to explain what’s going on in the world. I dislike inequality. Another new Leither.

A vote for Matt Goodwin/Reform in #GortonAndDenton is a vote for racism and misogyny. A vote to shame the constituency, to divide and fail it. It’s a vote that takes no responsibility for its consequences because it hasn’t thought about them and doesn’t care enough to do that.
Don’t be that voter.

Highly recommend.

Please help us with the cost of setting up our new studio. We have raised almost £9,000 of our £30k crowdfunder target, but we are still short of what is needed.

Ratcliffe is where populism leads. To multimillionaires spouting ignorant racist horseshit that divides us but unites the far right in their cynical bid to exploit prejudice for power. Ratcliffe will just shrug from his tax haven home. He doesn’t care. Farage laps it up. Everyone else loses.

Tomorrow we fit windows and accoustic panels in the studio. On Friday lighting rig and monitors get installed. This would be much easier if I was younger and fitter

Labour sleaze and its dangerous association with Palantir. Anas Sarwar's incessant attacks on NHS Scotland are an attempt to soften up the Scottish public for private company involvement in NHS Scotland. Only indy parties will protect NHS Scotland.

She must immediately be sent back to the maximum security prison where she belongs.
No-one seems to have noticed, but many of the core developments in the Mandelson/Epstein story these last few days have been broken on this website. @pickardje.bsky.social and @petergeoghegan.bsky.social are both posting each breaking development on BlueSky, not X.
