Also, the solution to this is a private space for ministers, senior civil servants when travelling. I don’t know if people would accept the costs.

Either way, this probably makes my mom more endeared to the Government (she completes levels faster than they can make them).

Opsec level: telling Government ministers to do their sensitive work in a train carriage.

Had she been doing work people would still photograph/leak it, and/or (rightfully) be concerned about that risk in a public space.

@richardmarcj Oh wow, that must be great to have. From his time as agriculture minister I assume?

if I ran a five guys my products would be "trans rights", (£23.40) "vote" (£14.70), and "black lives matter" (£21.12) because I'm a good person.

See also; delays to the repairs will doubtless extend the misery but just later on.

At least Tim Farron was able to collect people’s emails though!

Why on earth are the Lib Dems attempting to delay replacing crumbling motorway bridges?

I appreciate it may not be *convenient* for residents, but schools and livelihoods are not as “under threat” as if a chunk of asbestos filled cement fell into a watercourse or other highways.

@genosamuelgeno AI platforms training data took a lot from generic (I think mostly 2000s-ish) poster/graphic template sites which designers mostly use to find digital assets

Bc AI can’t exercise that level of creative judgement, it averages out everything and creates uncannily generic stuff

Hugh Dalton to officials: “I have great confidence in your administrative ingenuity […], and I am sure that, having explained these great difficulties so clearly, you will be able to find a way round them and an answer to them."

EXCLUSIVE:

Andy Burnham has shelved plans to put Thames Water into administration amid concerns about the cost and the legal risk involved, The Times has been told

The prime minister repeatedly indicated that he wanted to put the company into a special administration regime (SAR) that would allow essential services to keep running until a buyer was found

He was expected to do so in one of his first acts in No 10

However, The Times has been told that officials have raised concerns about the risk to taxpayers and the potential for legal challenges. The officials are also concerned about the “practical barriers” to putting Thames Water into administration in the first place

The government is now conducting further work to establish if there is a “viable option” for putting the company into administration, but it is likely to take several months. Ministers have not ruled out doing so but it is looking increasingly challenging

The emergency SAR — the first for a water company — would risk leaving the taxpayer with a bill for the £2 billion that Thames Water believes it needs to keep running until the end of next year unless an alternative solution can be found quickly. There are further concerns about how easy it would be to find a buyer for the ailing company after it is taken into administration

@benhoobs The deep state is on your side, solider 🫡

[Amelia Tamblyn🌹 @atamblyn04]

It's incredibly concerning that Leeds' Green Group are using publicly funded SRAs - meant to compensate Councillors for extra time they give to local authorities - to fund roles within their party.

Syed really clearly encapsulates the tragedy of Jason Arday’s death and the months, years, prior to it.

It’s emotional and comes with an otherwise unheard perspective of his sister - a friend of Arday - and the shape grief takes.

Jason Arday was failed by the system — and by me
