So many layers of corruption.

More likely a trough line? It certainly produced some weather!

At GCSE, current flows from + to -. At A level, electrons flow from - to +. At university, holes and electrons move in opposite directions. I'm not sure any of those is a complete description!

I think you are being over generous. At least shit comes from something that was previousy useful.

Don't cancel. Just delay. Indefinitely.

So much for free speech!

I remember frequently in the military where the Pay Review Body's recommendations were either diluted or dismissed and we forewent (if that's the past tense of forego) our pay rise.

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out.

Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation.

Say equity, which a just society should pursue.

Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

The old adage "A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is still putting on its shoes" has never been more true that with current politicians - on both sides of the Atlantic (if we're still allowed to call it that...)

The challenges that even able-bodied employees face in the USA simply getting to a polling booth are incomprehensible to most Brits who generally have a polling station within a mile of their address and minimal bureaucracy or queuing when they get there. 4-hour queues in the open are not democracy.

If you haven't yet completed your self-assessment tax return, TODAY is the deadline!

Like Jesus, he kept the best for later!

Most of it will be hot air.

I'm keeping mine in line with the military adage, know your enemy

I think that was at the core of the bishop's sermon.

Can Presidential pardons be unpardoned?

They clog drains!

They do have the benefit of lots of sun, but electricity is relatively transportable.

Creepy but flattering!

My local NHS Trust hospital requires staff to pay for their own DBS check - different but similar.

I used to be able to read Arabic - very slowly and very badly - but after a few years away from early lessons, it's all gone 😞

A few times, I've done Geneva and back in the day from Gatwick. Gruelling, but efficient.

My uncle married a 7th generation American who was a classics teacher. Visiting them as a teenager, I recall her saying she couldn't understand how Carter became President because none of her friends had voted for him. Sadly, I was too young to reposte properly. I guess she was early days MAGA.

Order more popcorn! This is going to get really interesting.

Just like the Nectar card was meant to replace all other loyalty cards, I thought something like LinkedIn would bring some commonality to job applications. Fast chance!

I stayed in bed this morning because I was a little stiff after parkrun on Saturday.

The damning statistics that reveal the true cost of Brexit, five years on As January marks five years on from Britain leaving the EU, Alicja Hagopian and Kate Devlin explore its impact

Just remember, if it comes then the flood won't stop at Europe.

Don't repeat my mistake cooking frozen Yorkshire puddings. I took them out of their little foil case before putting them in the oven. They oozed everywhere and were rather flat!!! Luckily still edible - just.
