The grass in our local park has been infested with rust, which i have never seen before. SE England. So much that my shoes are dusted orange with it now. Bizarre.

Having illustrated the problem of X ignoring its legal duties, I want to build an effective coalition for intervention. If you are or know people on X receiving racist abuse, rape threats, I would welcome receipts of one rejected attempt to report to the platform an indefensible case

Thanks for this kind note. I hope to do something useful with this by Nov/Dec (new Ofcom powers, new EHRC chair). I'd like more women + ethnic minorities to go through (futile) process of reporting shocking stuff (eg rape threats, p-word, n-word) & share receipts with me of one egregious example

She asset-stripped an entire country and squandered the money to buy votes. Most of the problems with Britain today can be traced back to her disastrous social and economic experiment.

Thatcher was born 100 years ago and her reign feels a lifetime away. Why is her effect on the country still so huge? | Martin Kettle

He looks pretty "astonished" in that picture, has he just "solved mystery" or "made mysterious find" perhaps?

this high quality gag came from someone who is also here but as he hasn’t posted it himself I assume he doesn’t want to be tagged to share in the glory

Farage is being interviewed. He says “I WAS ABOUT 14 AND IT WAS OVER THE PHOTO OF EVA BRAUN”. The interviewer says “ERM... I ASKED YOU ABOUT THE WEST BANK”

In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll introduce American propagandist Alexandra Jost, aka “Sasha”. She’s best known for being paid by the Russian state to spread pro-Kremlin propaganda — and for doing it with a big smile.

Agreed. They don't leave though. Their kids are in school here, their wives and mistresses are here, their wives' and mistresses' friends are here, we have the best culture and sports. Paris is insular, Monte Carlo is dull, Frankfurt? Don't make me laugh...

Tax the buggers.
