This is idiotic. I saw yesterday that the cost of Jodrell Bank is similar to the spend on bespoke stationery for MPs (!) and this HiPERCAM is only £50k. Quite apart from the science and the value to all of us of extending human knowledge, governments seem unable to see the economic value.

Sadly it's not just #JodrellBank losing funding, with deep cuts across the board for UK astronomy. One example is the HiPERCAM project whose funding has been entirely cut to save £50K/yr - peanut-levels of £s. Spectacular fast transient science lost, for what? 🔭😡 www.zmescience.com/science/astr...

Scrutiny of political donations is a critically important part of the electoral process. Evading it demonstrates a fundamental contempt for voters and the UK’s values as a parliamentary democracy. https://www.desmog.com/2026/07/28/meet-the-aristocrats-helping-to-fund-reform-nigel-farage/

If I wanted to watch a professional journalist interview Burnham, Davey, Polanski or Farage I’d tune in if Victoria Derbyshire was interviewing.. If I wanted a childish po-faced attempt at “Gotcha” with Burnham, Davey or Polanski and studious avoidance of any dirt on Farage I’d watch Kuenssberg 🤷🏼‍♂️

Patrick - Here for the craic❗️🤷🏼‍♂️😉

Laura Kuenssberg doesn’t interview Andy Burnham She simply throws questions not aiming to be informative, giving license payers / viewers an insight into our new Prime Minister It’s an attempt at “gotcha” delivered in a high handed manner imitating journalism.. not to probe but to ambush

Did I travel all the way to #JodrellBank this morning for a 5min TV interview? Yes reader, I did. Did I then persuade the fab e-MERLIN Director Simon Garrington to let me climb inside the Lovell Telescope? Well, if you can't flex a Royal title occasionally, then what is the point of having it? 😇🔭🧪
