Amateur solar eclipse pics from my rooftop. Borrowed a neighbour’s glasses for a few secs at a time and I wish I had my own pair and that I wasn’t a grouch til the last minute.

@rspcaoffficial.bsky.social in London I’ve seen an increase in cats being carried around in these plastic backpacks with small air vents. The cat inside this bag was meowing non stop.
Are cats safe in this type of bag? Thank you.

This case about eBay is next level nuts. Covered in the FT today

Quite concerning story from the FT today:
NHS England has granted external staff from companies including Palantir “unlimited access” to identifiable patient data while working on a part of its flagship data platform.

Does BBC radio 4 really need to both sides it and include reform MPs as guests? And does the grammar error make their reform followers feel more comfortable and represented?

Why does a company listed on the stock exchange want a taxpayer funded subsidy?

Christiane Amanpour being interviewed by Ritula Shah ❤️❤️
These two possibly have the most perfect, velvety and authoritative voice.

Good or bad timing from Christie’s auction house? I’m not really feeling America Week, and their constitution really does seem to be an historic artefact.

It feels like these women have been fighting Johnson & Johnson my entire life, hope the settlement helps.

J & J smells like babies to me, its marketing was focussed on them and we grew up with it. Creepy company.

This @financialtimes.com podcast is super

Just another key service that doesn’t work in Broken Britain, quite depressing but glad it’s being exposed.

Just heard about Afghanistan having the third most land mines and 85% of death and injury from contact are children.
What a world to live in.
UN special rapporteur mentioned this as a side issue, funding to clear land mines has plummeted.

Of all the issues the home sec could deal with this week. Labour need to re-prioritise.

Thank you @data.ft.com for continuing to cover this story. Tony Blair desperately following the money.

How does this prick have the time to pick fights with his mediocre ChatGPT level understanding of politics in other countries.
That news organisations like the FT and bbc take note of him is irritating.
It’s going to be a long 4 years.

Value chain ripped of by brands behaving unethically.

This is more of an extreme case, but indicative of wide spread practice where companies can get away with it:

Really bizarre push from these companies and organisations.

Customers receive income from companies, pay us properly so that we could afford to pay for the green transition.

Article in the FT today, sorry I couldn’t link to it.

I do object to this fast fashion company listing in London and if it goes ahead I’ll be writing to my pension provider to not invest in it with my money.

Having been rejected by other stock markets on the grounds of slave labour and impact on climate, makes London seem desperate.
