I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.

I guess the only thing worse than not being talked about, is being ratioed.

That’s the UK buddy. I’ll take it, but pretty just England won?

I'm doing work-in-progress shows in July. Hope you can make it. Thank you. Maidenhead - norden.farm/events/michael-s… Cranleigh -cranleigharts.org/event/mich… Dorking - dorkinghalls.co.uk/event-det…

I didn’t even know this guy existed. lol.

that’s the question isn’t it. what WILL she do? there are no youth clubs for her to attend. food, cinema tickets, any sort of third space activity is all too expensive. their parents are underpaid, saturday jobs don’t exist any more, children have truly been abandoned by the govt

Yeah. They shut the youth clubs and ‘disincentivised’ the parks. So no.

Given that there are so many stultifyingly ill-informed voters in the UK, here are a few verifiable facts that for some strange reason, populist politicians and UK news media rarely, if ever, mention: 1. Non-UK nationals (foreign citizens) make up 12-13% of the prison population and cautions/convictions in England and Wales (2024-2025 data), roughly matching their estimated share of the adult population (12%). This has stayed stable despite rising migration. 2. Migrants skew younger/more male (demographics that drive crime across groups). After controlling for age and sex, non-citizens are slightly underrepresented in prisons compared to British citizens. Conviction data is less granular but follows similar patterns. 3. The Great British public estimates that asylum seekers' share of total immigration is around 33%, when (based on 2025-2026 data) they account for around 10-11% of long-term immigration (88,000 asylum out of 813,000 total inflows in 2025). 4. Many Brits also believe immigration/net migration is still at record highs or rising. In reality, net migration fell sharply to 171,000 in 2025 (halved from prior years, and the lowest outside pandemic since 2012). 5. 32% think most immigration is illegal (higher among some groups like Reform UK and Restore Britain supporters). In reality, irregular/small boat arrivals account for just 2-3% or less of total immigration, and a majority of them are found ti be legitimate asylum seekers; the vast majority of total immigration is entirely legal (visas for work/study). 6. There is also a persistent widespread view that most asylum seekers are economic migrants with low grant rates. In reality, the overall success rate is around 60-66% for recent asylum seekers; many small boat claims succeed on protection grounds, though backlogs and appeals complicate it. So while public concern about immigration remains high, you do have to question why so many British people are still absolutely clueless about the reality after more than a decade of relentlessly discussing immigration. It's almost like we're being deliberately misled by privately educated multimillionaires who have selfish ulterior motives...

In South London dozens of private renters are being evicted after their landlord - an affordable private rent provider - sold their entire estate to property developer Eviction notices arrived just as the government’s ban on Section 21 became law Full investigation from me @theipaper inews.co.uk/news/estate-wher…

Greens are ready to win the by-election in Clapham Park! Incredible response from residents who are so excited to have a Green councillor for the first time

Like many creative people my work was stolen to train AI which then took my jobs. I’m fighting back, starting a small press for human-only publishing, particularly by people 40 , Welsh, &/or neurodivergent. I need your help to begin: just £1 will help. 🙏🏼 whydonate.com/fundraising/hu…

Robert Fripp still confused about why hospital “shaved my balls” after heart attack "The man shaving my balls didn’t tell me," he said, while sharing an update on his health nme.com/news/music/robert-fr…

How am I just finding out now that Fripp is married to Wilcox? Surgeon: yeah just a simple bypass op Wilcox: shave his balls Surgeon: straightforward op really Wilcox: SHAVE HIS BALLS!!

Labour: The entire Green Party is antisemitic (in the same way every progressive Lab politician was). We've forbidden Lab councillors from going into coalition with them. Also Labour: Please can you stand down from contesting the seat we just wilfully vacated.

Fantastic to see this @nerve_news investigation trending. The crypto millions fuelling Britain’s far-right turn (the exact same playbook as Trump) requires much, much more scrutiny.

It is mid-May. The hedge looks like it has got completely out of hand. The hedge trimmer is in the shed, ready, and the urge to sort it out is entirely understandable. 🌿 It is also the worst possible time of year to do it. Under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, it is a criminal offence to intentionally damage or destroy the nest of any wild bird while that nest is in use or being built. Every species of garden bird is covered without exception. This is not guidance — it is law. And May is not a neutral point in the nesting calendar. It is the peak. Active nests in a typical garden hedge right now: Blackbird (Turdus merula) — the first brood may have only just fledged, and the pair will have begun their second clutch in the same hedge, often in the same fork. Up to three broods are possible before late July. Wren (Troglodytes troglodytes) — its domed moss nest sits at the base of the hedge in dense cover. First-brood chicks may still be in the nest or have only just left. A second nest may already be under construction in the same section. Blackcap (Sylvia atricapilla) — arrived from migration in April and will have laid immediately. In May its eggs are incubating or its first chicks are in the nest at one to two metres height — exactly where a trimmer blade runs first. Robin (Erithacus rubecula) — nests within 50 cm of the ground in the densest cover. A second brood is often underway in May. The nest is found almost exclusively by destroying it. Dunnock (Prunella modularis) — two broods between April and July, moss nest in low scrub. Its turquoise-blue eggs are among the most beautiful and least visible in a garden hedge. May is the moment when the hedge looks most in need of cutting — and the moment when active nest density is highest across the entire year. The only remaining clear window is August. The hedge held through winter; it will hold through summer. 🐦 #WildlifeGardening #HedgerowHabitat #NestingBirds #GardenWildlifeIt is mid-May. The hedge looks like it has got completely out of hand.
