This is hopeless from Starmer for so many reasons, not least because it’s in The Times and behind a paywall. Someone needs sacking.

Dutton and Poilievre losing their elections and seats within a week of each other is some chicken soup for the soul, isn’t it?

Peter Dutton, could be controversial to some. He’s dead now

PLEASE don’t buy into Amazon’s booksale this week. They are intentionally trying to eat into profits from Indie Bookstore Day this weekend, a really important annual event for our important community institutions. Check out your local fave or bookshop.org.

This got little attention. Even the Green party voting in the Lords with Tories for more dead cyclists, @greenjennyjones.bsky.social saying: “You cannot justify limiting one group’s opportunities by giving another group more opportunities” This could be straight from the car lobby. 😔

Remember when Citymapper had their own fleet of buses in London? That was weird

the proposed Starline looks cool but it's missing the obvious addition of HS3 from Waterloo to Penzance (with some no doubt very cheap tunnels under Dartmoor)

This feels like one of those leaflets I should put in the back of a book for me to discover in like 40 years when I’ll be all like ‘woah, cool’

It was a good first 50 days or so, but it’s been a botch job ever since. I predict a cabinet reshuffle and a relaunch post-summer. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Gotta love the Guardian reporting...Coventry's career limited to her swimming, no mention of her two terms as Minister in the cabinet of a ruthless authoritarian leader.

If he believes this then he should be arguing against cutting benefits and spending on services. Fairly obviously.

More of this, please. Feels like it’s bad time if you’re in an area without a proper devolution deal on recent evidence (looking at you, south Hampshire)

@faisalislam.bsky.social: “It is actually a legal requirement to set out a pathway to hit the 0.7% [ #aid] target under the 2015 act… might require legislation, or at least a theoretical plan to return it there…legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2015/12/…”

Sickened by this completely counterproductive decision. War fuels the need for aid spending and the world’s most vulnerable people shouldn’t have to pay for pandering to the U.S.

So many people are killed cycling in London and we never even know their name. A man in his 20s was killed cycling in Stratford last month. Come protest next Monday 24 February. Nobody should cycle out the door and not come home. https://buff.ly/4jXzEvO
