Thanks to #StormChandra our nearest river is using the road as a bed and the gauge on the bridge a few hundred meters away is registering a depth 120 cm more than the highest normal. And it’s still rising.

Storm Chandra likely to cause flooding in south-west England, Met Office warns
Storm Chandra is dumping biblical rains on my little corner of Devon. The rivers inhabit the roads and neighbours have their barge boats up. It’s not all that much fun tbh.
Storm Chandra has been named and will bring heavy rain to the UK this evening and tomorrow. But how is climate change influencing extreme events like this in the UK?

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.
We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

My simplistic view from abroad is that the only thing that stands a chance of stopping what’s happening in the US is if richer liberal states break away from the union. The only thing the federal administration will understand is the loss of the GDP.

It has posted the video but has failed to report on what it shows: it shows the US govt account is untrue

The BBC has never followed its own rules. ‘Due impartiality’ is paired with ‘due accuracy’, because impartiality should not override accuracy. They think too much about impartiality and not enough about accuracy.

Opinion polls 3 or 4 years away from a general election aren’t a barometer- they’re a way of *influencing* opinion.
Any broadcaster basing their coverage on such opinions polls is playing a very dishonest game- stepping out of their role of reporting, and into a promotion role.

Most people would consider £94,000 a year a very adequate salary. Not “man of the people” Farage, who spends so much time abroad earning extra cash that he barely has time do paperwork.
“He added that he wasn't making "any money as a result of being an MP, quite the opposite, I'm making it because I'm Nigel Farage and I've got other interests".”
