BlueSky is getting better at showing me stuff I want. Something happens, I come here and am able to find useful info and insight. It’s pleasing but also sad as this feeling of surprise reminds me we lost an entire community.

New YouGov poll: - 66% would support the UK having closer relationship with the EU - This includes half of both Leave (52%) and Reform UK (54%) voters - Majority (53%) support Britain rejoining the European Union - Six in ten believe Brexit has been more of a failure than a success

I’m old fashioned enough to think the BBC should be leading on what the deal is and what it means. Rather than the political claims from both sides.

For all the blanket coverage it's getting today you wouldn't know that fishing contributes a grand total of 0.03% to the UK's economy, or that it is absolutely dwarfed by many other sectors, like the live music industry, which have been badly hit by Brexit but are rarely even mentioned

Lots in the deal, Labour has been working on since opposition. Eg the veterinary agreement has been part of work since 2020. There is a lot riding on it now.

I actually mouthed along to the lyrics once, and I think it was just the sight of me doing that was so mortifying that it caused them to stop playing the music.

Maybe the only effective way to respond to people playing their phone out loud on public transport is to earnestly enquire: “I have a spare set of headphones, do you need them?”
