Festive flowers, part of the light show at Belton House we did back at the end of November. Colourful, colour shifting and quite pleasant to see.

Shot at Kedleston Hall, Derbyshire. Loved the way that the light was catching the tree on the edge of the clearing.

The more anti-immigrant and racist Labour becomes, the more it:
1) Normalises anti-immigration and racist sentiments, boosting Reform's appeal since it's their specialty
2) Drives moderate voters away from Labour because they're appalled at the direction Labour is taking
Losing in all directions!

The "Rachel from accounts" thing is sexist, classist, misogyny, and anyone who uses it should be utterly ashamed of themselves.
Too many dinosaurs in this country who cannot abide women who succeed.
Conservative Deputy Chairman Matt Vickers MP should do better 👇 #PMQs

Another shot from Bateman’s the home of Rudyard Kipling, a slightly creepy looking doll sitting in a chair by a window. I’m sure in its day it was much loved and cared for, and I’m equally sure it is cared for today too.
