Complaining about nightlife when you *checks notes* choose to live in Soho is like living in South Kensington and complaining about the museums. Or moving to Hackney and grumbling about creatives. Living in Richmond and hating green space. It's all getting a bit silly, isn't it?
@aDissentient Bit snowflakey of them. Robust debate and even dissent is positive and shouldn’t really be an issue regardless of whether one agree (or vehemently opposes) the speaker.
It’s is a really dark day when a talk about the history of ancient Israel and Judah is cancelled by the British Museum because of ‘security concerns’.

Probably a contrarian position to most but @carla_denyer is a very hardworking MP who I’ve see at a lot of events and policy discussions in Parliament. Burnout for MPs is an issue and I wish her a speedy recovery.
🚨NEW: Green party MP Carla Denyer has announced that she is going to "take several weeks off" as she claims to be too tired and suffering from "burnout"

Rejoin EU/massively closer alignment? Spending an absolute fortune on renationalising energy, water and whatever else? Flicked through the 2024Labour manifesto this morning and couldn’t see any of that. Change of leader needs these issues out before the public in an GE.
A great last home game of the season @CoventryRugby - onwards to the Champ Semi Final against Bedford Blues. Look after my seat until the new season starts ;-)
