Any reforms which aim to make services work for people, not profits, must change who owns social care services.

Every day, in every kind of weather, our 600+ rangers and approx. 6,000 countryside volunteers are rolling up their sleeves and restoring nature at the places in our care. On #WorldRangerDay we say a big thank you to all our ranger teams for looking after all these incredible places.

Searingly good piece by @johnjcrace.bsky.social on Jenick who gets really rattled when GBNews attacks him at what he thought was going to be his first real pitch for the leadership of Reform Jenrick and uneven paving stones - a perfect match www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The 2nd sentence of this snippet of UEFA’s response to FIFA (the whole of which is fantastic) reminds me of Thatcher & everything she sold off - resulting in high utility & rail prices, dirty rivers & water shortages and a huge welfare bill as we pay market rent instead of using houses we owned.

If somebody came to one of my writing classes with a novel about a “24-year-old wunderkind” on Wall Street called Leopold Aschenbrenner who graduated from Columbia aged 19, looked and dressed exactly like this, and crashed the stock market, I’d advise them to tone it down a bit

Automatically registering people to vote will create a level playing field, ensuring that the inconsistency in terms of who is, and who isn’t on the register ends.

This has really pissed me off, if you're in the area and can afford it go and give the cafe owner some money to help fund the kids meals. And if he refuses buy yourself a nice coffee and tip him as much as you can. Fuck Reform taking food from kids in need. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...
