@BBC if your trying to improve @BBCiPlayer could you find a way to let licence fee payers to link their licence to the app and watch shows they’re paying for when logged in wherever they are in the world? Be a real help for those who travel on UK Government or other business.

The benefits of electrification are so ordinary that we can forget how extraordinary they are. Many things change when a home gets electricity for the first time. A light switched on. Medicine kept cold. A phone charged.

Electric cars are zooming into the mainstream. From China to Scandinavia — and surprisingly, Nepal — more countries are showing how quickly the transition can happen. ⚡

In a recent speech, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth promised to rid the military of ‘fatties’ and ‘radicals.’ This campaign against woke has found few Reds at West Point — but it has upended military education, leaving alumni and professors angry. https://t.co/tv3GdpXRVY

@CvltOfChrissy How many records do mice keep that they need their own National Archive!

@Mark1_1984 @hthjones @edwardstrngr65 Practicing dispersal is of course great, but are they practicing wartime dispersal? Are they moving to airfields which are just less damaged than their own, taking off on expediently repaired runways, or arming at civilian airports? The enemy isn’t hitting one air base at a time.

@historyinmemes Not uncommon across armies, but a good logistic disposal shouldn’t kick out that much, hardly controlled.

PEN America says US public schools saw a record 11,982 book bans over the past year, with sexuality and gender identity among top targets ➡️

A l'initiative de la 🇫🇷, la dépénalisation universelle de l'homosexualité remise à l'ordre du jour de l'ONU. Pour la 1e fois, elle fait l'objet d'une déclaration au Conseil des droits de l'homme. Déjà soutenu par une cinquantaine de pays, le texte affirme que la pénalisation est contraire au droit international des droits de l'Homme et appelle les Etats qui ne l'ont pas encore fait à dépénaliser.🏳️‍🌈

I actually do see the progression and I like all 3

@SkyNews Interesting how many commentators are claiming to be the only one to like it, when almost all do, the eyesight defying Cyber Truck comparisons, and the belief the rebrand backfired. At a time they weren’t making cars they kept themselves in view. Think they’ve played a blinder.

[aCivilSapper @aCivilSapper]

@thealexbear Not sure whether to save for the Type 01 or the Cotswolds mansion, is there much in the pricing? It does look amazing.

Were you, or someone you know, affected by the Armed Forces LGBT Ban?

If you were dismissed, discharged or affected in other ways, you can apply for the Financial Recognition Scheme and other forms of recognition.

Jaguar took the decision to go all in on electric, stoked controversy whilst making the change, but stuck it. The Type 01 looks great (and needs to enter the used car market soon). Whilst many are nostalgic for old styles we forget they were cutting edge at the time too.

[Autocar @autocar]

The Jaguar Type 01 is finally here. We've got everything you need to know about the radical EV spearheading the brand's reboot ⚡ https://t.co/VPtB7mfaQA

A reminder that ‘circular economy’ is an idea possible to achieve in practice. I remember this very well. Not a plastic bottle in sight, & no diesel needed either…

The European Convention on Human Rights is one of the foundations of UK security, argue three former Independent Reviewers of Terrorism Legislation.
