A lot of people will tell you we're a Roman Palace. We are in fact a moon-sized super-weapon capable of destroying a planet. (Better with sound).

Chancellor Rachel Reeves has just warned ministers ‘every pound’ of government spending is to face review. Will that include tax payers money the Health Secretary is using to pay GMC’s costs in defending the legal action brought by @anaesunited.bsky.social to protect patient safety?

I have so much to do right now, but I suddenly want to drop everything and go off and study owls flying for a bit! What a dream job for someone! (A soft-winged, silent-flying dream) (also I have none of the experience required!)

Storm Darragh was short but devastating. We hope where you are wasn't too badly affected, and that you are all safe. The force of the wind took down five trees on land surrounding St Oudoceus's church, Llandawke in Carmarthenshire. They took out part of the tower roof, which you can see here. 1/3

So when we remove birthright citizenship can we go by the mother? Because: Don Jr was born in 1977 Ivanka was born in 1981 Eric was born in 1984 Ivana became a US citizen in 1988. Barron was born in March 2006 Melania became a US citizen in July 2006. Trump’s entire family would be deported.

“Tory trade barriers with the EU increased average annual shopping bills by £250, so trying to increase disposable income without making trade easier is like driving with the handbrake on.” #Brexit @thelondoneconomic.bsky.social @sydesjokes.bsky.social

These delays hinder timely diagnoses and treatment, often allowing conditions to deteriorate to an incurable stage. The Prime Minister's milestone on treatment times risks being meaningless if people can't even get the scans they need.

The trade barriers suffered by businesses in the UK are a consequence of being outside the single market and customs union - a position supported by Labour. The obvious solution to help businesses and grow the economy is to rejoin the single market and customs union.

We finally know the name of the mystery taxpayer who bought a dodgy tax avoidance scheme and tried to obtain an anonymity order to keep his fight with HMRC out of the press. It's Frankie Dettori.
