YOUNG PEOPLE. LISTEN UP.

Today Nigel Farage said the government should cut the minimum wage for young people

...to “raise aspiration” and “boost business"

It's £10ph FFS!

Lower your pay so you’ll dream bigger

DO YOU SEE IT NOW?

Spread far & wide.

It can't be emphasised enough that the block function is a tool for a better experience for everyone. Block accounts that you don't want to see. Block anyone who is rude or uncivil. Bluesky's 'nuclear block' means others won't see your engagement with that account, reducing incentives for toxicity.
For those folks who have joined recently, a few tips that may make your experience here more enjoyable.

I love a well balanced day.

Can't tell you how excited I was to see a subject area expert @torstenbell.bsky.social speaking in HoP today on a vital area of importance.

The way that was dealt with was shocking, and so so so frustrating.

Please can we reinstitute productive debate, expertise and intelligence to Parliament.

Been reflecting on cherished spaces.

Slightly different than people or things.

Valuable and sentimental; sometimes beautiful and occasionally unique.

Cherished spaces and places signpost our lives. They are the landmarks to nostalgia and the stages to some of our best stories.

Couple days in Stratford-Upon-Avon, today in Birmingham and then thankfully back to Leeds and THE NORTH.

The theatre and some in-laws- this has been a lovely break.
