The new Prime Minister is writing a "10-year plan" for the UK. The arts & culture MUST be part of it. I've signed @campaignforthearts.org's petition urging @andyburnham.bsky.social to revitalise the arts – to revitalise the whole nation 🌱 Join me: www.campaignforthearts.org/petitions/10-year-plan/

Idiots out in force already on Facebook and X banging on about "migrants" and how Sadiq Khan's London "isn't safe"... even as they entirely ignore the nature of this very worrying incident

Pretty wild how if you say “Nethanyahu is a war criminal” (he is), “we need to get to Net Zero” (we do) or “people who arrive by dinghy are not illegal migrants” (they’re aren’t) All 3 factual statements will have u removed from the Conservative Party. But “I used to wank over Hitler” will not.

Does anyone else remember a BBC prog where a a "captain of industry" (from memory he was quite progressive & seemed to talk a lot of sense) looking at care homes & trying to find a solution? It must've been about 20 years ago & I can't remember his name....

Also the experience of air travel has got worse in some respects but the price has gone down massively and the number of routes increased a lot. Consumers' revealed preference was to be treated like cattle in return for much more regular and cheap flights.

Food, man. Food is so much better than it was in 1986. All of it. Poor-people food, restaurant food, fresh food, frozen food. Food is just a hell of a lot better.

dorian @doriantaylor.com air travel is one of those experiences that has gotten monotonically worse over my entire lifetime question though: has *anything* in the last 40+ years genuinely gotten *better*? like, there's *more* stuff, sure, but is any of it *better*? 2:58 PM Aug 4, 2026

Badenoch represents double-down conservatism. Never apologise or moderate. Insult your opponents. Patronise journalists when challenged. Contradict yourself, lie, whatever it takes, but never back down. And that's how you end up creating an extremely avoidable Tory antisemitism scandal overnight

Unregulated landlord tax firm Property118 just surprisingly won against HMRC in a tax tribunal. Unsurprisingly, they're using it to resume marketing their very dubious scheme. Our analysis of what this means, and HMRC's chances on any appeal: taxpolicy.org.uk/2026/08/05/p...

Property118 v HMRC: the tribunal win that changes nothing

Property 118 won its DOTAS appeal, but the tribunal only decided its schemes needn’t be disclosed - not that they work. Clients remain under HMRC enquiry.
