I have no idea how Amaz*n rankings work and I hate that I even care, but it's nice to see my kids getting along and making friends.

I have to take 5 trains today.
Across the north of England and Wales.
With 10 to 15 minute changes.
The odds of me arriving at my final destination on time are incredibly slim.

James OBrien is forcing me to wonder if Iโ€™m in a Starmer cult. I think I am a little bit. Because I really respect him and want him to stay in post.  Iโ€™m glad Iโ€™m in his cult because Iโ€™ve never found anyone else Iโ€™ve respected more in politics than him.

I am also in the same cult. However, I believe it is an evidence-based cult. Starmer is managing home and foreign policies equally well. Manifesto pledges are now enacted, NHS, Education, Infrastructure, Energy, etc. The ability to deliver actions is what I look for and his Cabinet is delivering.

Me too.
SKS is a bit wooden, lacks charisma, but weโ€™ve seen where that gets us before with Bozo and his bluster.
Is Starmer perfect? No.
Does he reflect all my priorities? No.
Is he doing whatโ€™s needed? Yes.
Will it take time? Yes.

Blanche is so good.
I remember as a kid just thinking it was a sketchy, water-colour mess.

Then as I got old I realised, man, sketchy, water-colour mess takes so much talent!

This is back-of the envelope maths, but for any parents with kids at primary school in the UK: imagine your kid goes to a three-form entry school. So like, a reasonably big school.

Just saw a clip of an Iranian professor describing Americas attack as an action of the Epstein class that wish to rape or kill little girls.

I donโ€™t know but I feel like that could stick

Three people I know from my actual life are working the red carpet at the Brits tonight.

Iโ€™ve been in my pyjamas all day and keep laughing at my own joke.

I feel Iโ€™ve made a poor choice at a critical juncture somewhere along the line.
