Glad to see Nigel Farage has finally remembered Nathan Gill, former leader of Reform in Wales - found guilty of taking bribes from Russia.

Maybe he'll now remember how much he took from Putin's propaganda broadcaster Russia Today for all his TV appearances when he was a MEP?

I say this as someone who truly enjoys a lot of Taylor Swift's music, but the consistent "I just released an album, but here are six more versions of that album that have one extra new/old/re-recorded song that I know you'll all buy" grift from one of the world's wealthiest pop artists is just gross

Birmingham open studios is so lovely. To meet so many artists in the local area and be able to talk to them about their art was just a nice thing to do
