Here's a still from the sit-in at Liverpool Street station. The video doesn't really convey the scale but any of you who have been to Liverpool Street will be able to gauge the number of people there from this picture.

From an interview with a Hasidic Jewish person in Israel, taken by The Ask Project (see explainer article below):
Interviewer: "Does everyone who lives here deserve to be treated the same way?"
Interviewee: "I think not. I think this is the nation of the Jews and that the Jews should have more rights than the non-Jews. I think that each Jew should get a plot of land and non-Jews shouldn't"

I love being told by Americans that we wouldn't have a monarchy if the public "withdrew their support".
Ditto Canadians.

This from Sophy Ridge:

A levels SCRAPPED

A-levels and T-Levels will be rolled into a new single qualification called Advanced British Standard

"This will finally deliver on the promise of parity of esteem between academic and technical education. Because all students will sit the ABS"

Despite an epic rant about Scotland, he seems to have forgotten they have a different education system. You lucky, lucky bastards.

Wow. Brianna Ghey's mother is watching PMQs in the gallery this week, so Sunak decides to attack Starmer on his unwillingness to state the difference between a woman and a man.
Jesus.

I've just been reminded of the movie thing 😬
Honestly can't remember the parameters but nevertheless, this is v. funny and odd.

Deeply unsurprised to see all the reporting of Iran's strikes on Israel as being "unprecedented" and "audacioius" as if they just got bored on a Saturday night and thought fuck it.

"The Green Party is becoming a dustbin, a repository not only for climate activists but for disgruntled hard leftists leaving the Labour Party, and some fairly unpleasant Free Palestine activists as well."

Interesting. Government minister Andrew Bowie is the latest to join the ranks of those disseminating outright conspiracy theories on national television.
Fifteen minute cities = you can only use shops within a 15 minute radius of your house, by order of your local council.

Prompted by one of @lowqualityfacts 's posts, and as part of my ongoing semi-addiction to Tove Jansson, I'm posting the whole of one of her short stories from The Summer Book. As with all her stuff, it's adorable and hilarious. Hope you enjoy it.
It's going to be a pretty long thread, so bear with me 😊

"Shadow minister Ed Miliband says Labour will review the agreement if it wins power to 'deliver the justice to which miners are entitled'."
The word "review" is doing a hella lot of the heavy lifting there. The same level of scrutiny will be applied to the claims of the WASPI women, no doubt. 🙄 😡

"The hermit crab is not, in fact, hermetical: they're sociable, often climbing on top of one another to sleep in a great pile. When a crab comes across a new shell that turns out to be too big, it waits nearby until another crab comes to inspect it. If it's too small for a second crab, they hold claws and form a queue until a crab who fits it arrives, then the next crab in line claims the newly-housed crab's shell ... "
