I think so, thanks. I’ll find out for certain next time I need to order some.

I’d say, from the looks of him, he was in an early line-up of Tears for Fears.

Apparently she’s the editor of Labour List now. Fair play.

Worried about being called racist? Try not being racist.

I’m shocked and disappointed that @adamfleming.bsky.social didn’t take the opportunity to comment that Darren Jones had opted to pass the duchy. It is not, apparently, yet known if this took place ‘pon the left hand side.

@darrenpjones.bsky.social : “…it is a private appointment from His Majesty the King to administer the duchy on his behalf. But the good news is I had to delegate those responsibilities quite quickly to someone qualified to look after his landed estate.”
