@boredtweeple@Peston MPs should be subject to the same standards/code of conduct as the strictest that their own laws have enforced on other public servants.
But currently, an MP can go to prison for up to 12 months and still keep their job.
@AJamesMcCarthy Hey @AJamesMcCarthy - do you happen to know if the time in the metadata for the original picture is UTC? I'm trying to work something out that might be interesting
@RodneyMarshall1 When it comes round again, you can hear Kitchen's taut playing of Louis Mazzini in the Radio 4 version of "Kind Hearts and Coronets" (with Harry Enfield as all the D'Ascoynes). Also available imam Ealing Collection on Audible.
@RodneyMarshall1 Hadn't seen this until binge-watching all week whilst on leave - up to series 6 now. Very much appreciating Kitchen's acting, and the series bringing attention to at-home issues during WWII.

@RodneyMarshall1 Lasting regret is not talking to Barry Morse when I walked past him in 1996 - wanted to say that it was him as Prof. Bergman and Nimoy as Spock that were so influential in me becoming a scientist. He was walking out of the hospital I was working in, so not appropriate to disturb
@VinasVeritas It's telling that Trump thinks the answer to "Is the Pope a Catholic?" - an expression used to emphasise that an answer to a question is so completely
and overwhelmingly obviously "yes" that it doesn't need answering - is "no".
@richardmarcj I've always wondered why it's called "first past the post". There is no post to go past. You could win with one vote. It's "most votes wins".
Can this be the death of "economic science" please? Trump has an economics degree; Musk has an economics degree; Truss has a Politics, Philosophy and Economics degree. Can someone tell me why it should be considered different from astrology or alchemy?
What's the simplest thing you've asked on-line AI to do that it got wrong?
I'll start - asked to list the Apollo moonwalkers in date order: got the right dates, wrong order, and only listed 11 out of 12.
