Your regular reminder that there are only 2 countries in the world with religious clerics guaranteed seats in government or parliament: Iran… and the UK.
Yet again, peers from across the House have called for the removal of the bishops. We agree. No seats should be given as of right to one religion or belief. The Bill to remove Hereditary peers is welcome, but should extend to Lords Spiritual too. humanists.uk/2024/12/12/p...

Ever wondered why walking around museums is weirdly tiring? At normal speed our legs act like pendulums, swinging forward from the hip & saving us a huge amount of energy. In "museum shuffle" our muscles must do ALL the work of constant readjustment. So cake in the cafe is scientifically justified 🥳

Great Britain wastes billions of pounds switching off wind turbines & wasting energy.
Zonal energy pricing would put that energy to work & make bills cheaper.

Spot on as usual from @mikegalsworthy.bsky.social
“We must leave the EU to control our borders and stop mass immigration,” they said.
And it was the same people who said that who were then in government.
Brexit has simply led to the reverse of everything it said it was about.

When I see research results like these here my conviction to teach people a basic gut feeling of data grows stronger. Folks think that one in five people are transgender?! That’s soooo off. People think that 40% have served in the military?! That’s one of the reasons I share so many charts and maps.

Jeremy Clarkson, who owes his fame & fortune in large part to the BBC, sneers at the brilliant @vicderbyshire.bsky.social for being ‘classic BBC’ when she uses *his own words* to describe his position.
“So it’s not about you, it’s not about your farm and the fact you bought a farm to avoid inheritance tax?”
@vicderbyshire.bsky.social speaks to Jeremy Clarkson at the farmers’ protest in Westminster where thousands of farmers are protesting the government’s inheritance tax plans.
