We're saddened to hear about the fire at Medlock Mill, the only known mill in England with surviving evidence of steam-assisted water power.
A rare piece of history at the heart of Manchester's role in the Industrial Revolution. CBA & SAVE had called for it to be listed

🚨 MPs are debating the Product Regulation and Metrology Bill for the first time. Sounds dry? It’s not. This Bill will give considerable law-making powers to Ministers with little parliamentary oversight. Here’s why that matters… 🧵

To the wealthy
"Britain is increasingly poverty-stricken. Nothing works. Many in full employment rely on food banks. Our buildings and infrastructure are crumbling. Our waterways are poisoned.
Yet, incredibly, we are the sixth largest economy in the world.
So: where has all the money gone?" 🤷♂️

Etymology of the day: in the expression ‘just deserts’, ‘deserts’ is an old past participle of the French ‘deservir’, meaning ‘deserve’. To get your just deserts is to get what you deserve.
‘Desert’ in this sense is obsolete, which is why lexicographers see ‘just desserts’ popping up everywhere.

Palestinians have to beg online because Israel won't let any aid in. No food, no diapers, no medication, nothing. An endless amount of food that was sent to Gaza got spoiled in trucks that were stopped at the border. Do you understand? This is an intentional famine of civilians who are being bombed

I'm sharing this link to a tweet from a very dear friend in Gaza who isn't yet on Bluesky. His family have been providing food for over 400 for months and desperately need funds. Their GoFundMe is verified. x.com/Lawyer_Anima...
