Make that one hundred complaints:

He was not alone. More than 100 Eton parents backed a letter in 2024 warning of “clear evidence of harm to a significant number of boys in the school’s care due to screen addiction”

When you turn up to vote in the UK, they ask for your name and address and check that you are on the electoral role.

If there’s a second by-election, then there could be some serious contenders up against Farage.

Barbecues have been banned in most parks in and around east London for years. As of July 2026, they are now banned in all London parks.

I agree, however OpenStreetMap is not great for finding child friendly pubs. Back in March when I queried Overpass, only 72 pubs worldwide had the highchair tag, which is not significant enough for the highchair tag to be added to the id tagging scheme for pubs.

There’s plenty he can do. For starters, there are lots of issues with the UK’s privatised water infrastructure. This could either be brought back into public ownership, or the government could put more pressure on these companies to maintain the infrastructure to address all the leaks. Also the last major dam built in the UK was back in 1975, so the government could invest in new dam projects.

I would rewrite this one as, “if you want to reduce your impact, reduce the amount of animal products you eat, including meat, eggs, and dairy.”

Whilst you’ve said you’ll never become a vegan, do you disagree with this statement? Whilst tackling climate change is a collective problem, and not one solved through individual lifestyle choices, it needs to be acknowledged that all animal products have a carbon footprint

I stumbled upon this article, after George Monbiot posted about it:

It’s a point I’ve been trying to make for a long time: there is no good way to meet even 10% of current demand for animal products. They trash the living world, whichever way you do it. If you want to reduce your impact, switch to a plant-based diet

Back in May, Burnham was criticised by Labour MPs for planning to appear at an event alongside the Greens, so you would hope that he was more amenable to forming a left-wing alliance.

Have you got a quote or reference for this?

That is surprising given that they do have past and present trans contributors, including Shon Faye, Gemma Stone, and Helena NoJusticeMTG.

This was a leadership challenge that happened within Labour, the current ruling party. The showdown between Binface and Farage is for the Clacton by-election.

Presumably this means Ed Miliband is gone.

Ed Miliband has been named foreign secretary in Andy Burnham’s new cabinet, so hopefully this means Burnham hasn’t made a decision on Rosebank.

The project is only profitable for Equinor because the UK taxpayers would shoulder almost all of Rosebank’s development cost.

That is a good point, but it takes more than Clacton to win a general election.

I was curious to see if Australia has such laws, and I was surprised to learn that according to Safe Work Australia that there isn’t a temperature where people have to stop working:

No. A single ‘stop work’ temperature can’t account for all the factors that make working in heat hazardous

Farage framed this by-election as the “people versus the establishment”, however, all the other parties consider this by-election to be a farce.

The comedic candidate has pledged to make corners in football properly refereed, end subsidy for food and drink in parliament, conscript people who play loud music on public transport and force cyclists who break the highway code to ride unicycles instead.

I could definitely get behind these policies.

It was an accident and not intended to cause offence.

It did occur to me after I posted it. 😅
