Bluesky seems to be in decline. To be honest, I'm not a massive fan of the site. Since being there, certain Twitter emigrants have become more unpleasant.

These plain lumpen boxes are new apartment buildings in Wandsworth. Apart from their dire dullness, it’s enraging that this is the height we are building TODAY in London. Compare them to the wonderful mansion blocks the Victorians built along Battersea Park. The blood boils.

Just one month after an election, where nothing like this was mentioned, Oxfordshire’s Unliberal Undemocratics propose a fee to offset the Council’s incompetence in managing the road network. Unbelievable! bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Is there anyone here who has applied recently for an AHRC standard research grant and would be willing to show me their application (successful or not), please? I really just want to see what a completed form looks like and what sort of activities and outputs people propose. 🙏

Sorry, what?! VAT on school fees is now paying for HOUSING?? Are you just making it up as you go? You categorically said it would be ringfenced for state schools. So which was the lie — then or now? Schools or housing? Either way, taxing education to patch budget holes isn’t

Taxing education is “tough but fair”, Sir Keir? Really? No—it’s not fair. Not by a long chalk. 🚫 11,000+ kids forced out 🚫 SEN support lost 🚫 Mental health suffering 🚫 GCSE/A-level prep disrupted 🚫 State classes swelling 🚫 Bursary students pushed out 🚫 Teachers & support
