Will obviously be too mortified to ever watch this, but very chuffed it exists and to be included!

Wow! Wow! Wow!

North Atlantic sea surface temperature anomalies are going vertical again. And yes, I needed to extend the y-axis.

Yesterday's temperature of 24.49°C (76.08°F) was 4.2σ above the 1991-2020 mean. The previous high for July 17 was 23.71°C (74.68°F) in 2020.

Overall, being a part of this was an amazing opportunity and I would recommend! Happy to talk it over with anyone who thinks they might be interested.

This started out silly and fun.. then quickly became frustrating and reminded me why I don’t record regularly anymore…. It is a deeply unpleasant experience.

Back in 2005, @jk_rowling founded her charity Lumos with her close friend Tory Emma Nicholson, who remains an opponent of marriage equality, and said once, "for a child to grow up with two lesbian mothers is neither normal nor natural." Pride was always a protest against that. 1/

Here it is. Our EXPLOSIVE Documentary exposing Boris Johnson's links to the KGB while he was in charge of MI6. @johnsweeneyroar uncovers:

🚨 The meeting at former KGB spy Alexander Lebedev's castle in Perugia where Boris was photographed hungover without security

🚨 The shocking Italian intelligence report uncovered by @jacopo_iacoboni that claims Lebedev never left the KGB.

🚨 Johnson's general election victory party hosted by a former KGB agent in London.

🚨 How Johnson put the son of Alexander Lebedev in the House of Lords AGAINST MI5 advice.

🚨 The unbelievable threat to democracy if our prime minister was compromised by Russia

Watch the full documentary on Twitter & share to spread the truth about our former Prime Minister:

Hi @GoogleUK - it's great to see you supporting #PrideMonth - but how do you reconcile this with advertising on GB News, who have been been accused of "demonising trans people at every opportunity"? https://t.co/LQmM3QXBS9

@megabusuk Coach was around 8 hours late into London. It was really hard to get any up to date information from you and 6 of us were left in Amsterdam until 2am sitting in a bus station. Really terrible customer service.

NEW: The DWP is rejecting a record high of 90% of PIP disability benefit appeals

Those who then take their appeal to tribunal have an 80% success rate

Campaigners say the DWP is ignoring legal rulings in order to reject appeals

By me, for @BigIssue https://t.co/d2zShree9g

Become a writer. Just pick one of the things that is deeply wrong with you, make it a character, send it on a self help journey or try to kill it, and call it a book.

[colin macfarlane @Cmacf76]

The silence from mainstream media on the damning interim findings on the state of LGBTQ+ equality in the UK by the UN Independent Expert on Sexual Orientation & Gender Identity is shameful, but not surprising. Thanks to Neil for being one of the few that has reported the facts.

Agatha sits cross legged on a pile of smooth grey stones in a stick nest lined with moss and lichen. She’s been there three days.

‘Performance art,’ her husband tells the neighbours. He doesn’t mention she’s called it ‘Marriage’.
