Wondered about Labour’s approach to nature? It’s very important for me so I’ve looked at what they’ve introduced in the last 55 weeks and it’s impressive. Good for bees, good for us and good for our countryside 🐝🐝

The media is bending over backwards to humanise the man who mowed down 79 people at Liverpool’s parade.

His company’s Twitter account follows Nigel Farage, Elon Musk and Andrew Tate. That tells you everything you need to know.

Very interesting column from Gillian Tett. Is the link between R&D and growth breaking down in the US because of concentration of corporate power (especially in tech businesses)?

Gillian Tett: "The key point to understand is that a shift in economic philosophy is emerging that is potentially as profound as the rethinking unleashed by John Maynard Keynes after the second world war or that pushed by neoliberals in the 1980s."

Just a reminder that the minister with the brief for women and equalities from 2022 to July 2024 was none other than Kemi Badenoch, since she herself seems to have forgotten that – judging by her indignation at #pmqs.
