Genuinely grotesque watching white far right extremists rampaging into the Capitol when every single person watching this knows that black protesters who tried even a fraction of this would have faced extreme police brutality long ago

24. When the weather presenter @OwainWynEvans went viral for playing the BBC News theme on the drums, so the BBC made an orchestra...

Growing up, my Muslim family never celebrated Christmas. This year I am not going home, because pandemic, so my roommates are teaching me how to have my first proper Christmas.
I am approaching this with anthropological precision.
Here are a few observations.

In light of the Christmas rule change. Many of you will now have loads of perishable food you just won’t be able to finish. And some ppl now won’t have enough (cos you were seeing family). I recommend food sharing app @OLIO_ex. It’s free. And right now, timely and useful.

An Irish passport holder in the UK has more freedom than a UK passport holder in the UK. That’s quite a thing for the UK government to have achieved.

Dear God,
This is our Brexit negotiator. 🤦♂️
1) We fully control borders already with passport checks. Being an EU member meant more data to control it better.
2) State aid is an issue at WTO too -not purely unilateral.
3) Fish migrate across borders; shared control is better.

Personally, I think we should spend £16.5 billion on the NHS and clap for the military.
