NHS staff who care for patients in their own homes fear some areas have become “no-go zones” for them because of the presence of St George’s flags, health leaders have said.
Black and Asian staff have been left feeling “deliberately intimidated” as a result of the flags that were put up in many parts of England during the summer, according to the chief executive of one NHS trust in England, who asked to remain anonymous. Continue reading...

The "appropriate response" is to broadcast everything that Trump did and said on that appalling day for American democracy and then to tell this moron to sling his hook.
I might be wrong, but this stinks of Pharage involvement.

SUPERB and angrily unvarnished response, by former BBC chairman, Lord Patten.

What bothers me is that impartiality and balance are two different and incompatible things. Impartiality means that you don't intervene to put your thumb on the scales. Balance necessarily requires that you intervene to artificially make every issue look like a 50/50.

Well, I rather enjoyed Murder Before Evensong, in a gentle Sunday evening sort of way, despite the puzzling styling/social attitudes for the year it was supposed to be set in.

It's been a very quiet week.
As a small business owner that’s a bit scary heading into my busy season.
So, if you're looking for unique #Christmas gifts, I make prints, homewares, cards & accessories inspired by midcentury design, music & architecture.

I think the last three lines form the best poem I’ve ever written.
Important to differentiate between weasels, stoats and ferrets.
Weasels are weasily identified.
Stoats are stoatally different.
And ferrets are made of water.

All of this. If you're not feeling well, don't go. It's not brave working through a cold or the flu, it's deeply selfish and irresponsible.
Lemme give you an example of why behaving like an event's covid policy magically doesn't apply to you is dogwater behaviour. Not that people who do this care about the fallout, they got what they wanted.
Regardless, let's begin.

If you’d like even more people to see these lovingly hand-curated postcards and their messages, remember: likes are lovely but re-posting costs nothing and spreads the thing like a benign virus. Or something.

A curious little distinction between Bluesky and Xitter.
The actress Pauline Collins has died (😢) — on Bluesky, she is (rightly) listed as trending; on Xitter, her husband (John Alderton) is trending, but not her name.
