Only a few months ago, Reform UK candidates were promising to lower Council tax while balancing the books ... "Darren Grimes’ Reform council faces £83 million financial black hole" www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/dar...
The sun did not shine, it was too wet to play. So we finished reading The Wolf that Ate Rocks by @russincheshire.bsky.social What a wonderful Bill Bryson style walk through the canine world. A keen observation on the joys and challenges of dog ownership and hilarious from start to finish.

This need’s distributing widely. Hopefully it will make people understand what people mean by privacy concerns re SM, this is the consequence of being the “product and not the customer”.
This is gross, violating, and terrifying. Meta AI gives open access for anybody to profile, stalk, and track the children of its users. This post-privacy age would have been Epstein's wet dream. How did we let it get this far?

Judge rules Trump must hand over financial records sought by BBC in discovery, in defamation case Trump brought against BBC - www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... There's a basic leverage issue here: Trump's cronies run the FCC & FTC, so he can threaten broadcast licenses and mergers in the US, but not UK

I understood from Burnham supporters is that he is politically far more astute than Starmer. If that is true then appointing Mahmoud as Chancellor is an astonishing faux paux. Quite apart from her utterly alienating record as Home Secretary www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Oh dear another fragile poster in @bluebirdk7.bsky.social who can't handle the truth, I'm guessing that they don't have any evidence at all of K7 on full plane like this photo from Bute because they would've shown the evidence but because I didn't fall for the museum gaslighting I get blocked.
Found an example from 1 of the many runs on Bute. You can clearly see it's floating on a bed of air underneath the main hull & sponsons. There's a solid metal lump of a planing wedge right at the back of the sponson, in full planing only this is in the water. Clue's in the name 3 point hydroplane.
