So? It was 12 degrees and hailing about 10 days ago, and flights were cancelled. That’s not typical May weather?

@exceeding_love @tm1fox Original illustrations are of their time. Matching the imagination of the era. For me Shepard can’t be bettered, and the Hungry Caterpillar is also just fine. Many modern illustrations are just current trends distorting the whimsy or realism of the originals. Awful, and samey.

I suspect that Will, a well-paid liberal journalist, isn’t troubled by crippling energy bills. Unlike the rest of us.

The Greens used to be kindly old women who knit their own yoghurt. Now half of them think they're in Hamas, and the other half look like they've fallen off a float at Mogadishu Pride. And none of them care about the actual environment any more. One of the new Green politicians brags about driving his Lamborghini, which isn't exactly carbon neutral. Another Greens politician was elected to a five-year position in the Scottish parliament despite being on a student visa. Other Green politicians were arrested under suspicion of committing race hate crimes for their anti-Semitic views. It seems the carbon they want to reduce is a very specific type of carbon that worships in a synagogue. It's pretty obvious that the Greens have abandoned any veneer of caring about the environment. They're communists. They only ever pushed environmental issues as a way to damage Western society and capitalism. Now they've got better tools to do that: Islamism, mass immigration and queer culture. I just wonder how those things are going to sit next to each other as the Green Party grows.

Is there anything cuter than watching your baby playing on his own when he doesn't know you're watching? 🥹🥹🥹

Scotland and Britain’s lucky escape. This pair - Sturgeon and Murrell - were the very people who were supposedly going to create a new central bank, currency, armed forces and state. What could possibly go wrong?

My wife and I discuss whether we should buy a newspaper most days, let alone a fucking-great big motor-home.

How convenient that it comes to court just after the Scottish elections. Is the whole Scottish establishment including the Court system complicit in helping the Nationalists?

Will forgot to crowbar Britain leaving the EU into this scaremongering tripe. He’s slipping.

@AllisonPearson But do they have their fish and chips out of newspaper?…

All credit to Nicola’s astonishing lack of curiosity. £125,000 caravan in the driveway next to the new Jaguar? Perfectly normal. Particularly like the £2,500 Lalique crystal salt and pepper set. How do we manage with one?

@aviationarchive Hee hee. I love the mechanics of it.

Wow, rare footage capturing F-15s practicing their mating calls. I know one is of the Lakenheath type.👀

@BeardyHowse Love that horses head!

Classical and rustic: an 18th-century extension to the former White Horse public house opposite St Nicholas, Great Yarmouth. The alley to the right is Row No 6 (of 145), Body Snatcher's Row, after Thomas Vaughan, who dug up 10 in 1827 and was jailed.

So, it’s a hotter May than normal. But at the start it hailed and it was freezing. Why no alarm at that? #heatwave

@Simmons__ Superb illustration.

I wonder how much the Scottish press will now feel able to reveal without contempt of court threats hanging over them. Spectator ahead of the curve on this but lots could not be said then 👇

@HDewarSport Blimey. Do they tell a better class of time?…

Peter Murrell bought two Bremont watches in 2017. One white, the other one black. The same watch ( albeit in different colours), just days later. This cost more than £9000. Who was the other watch for? As they say, always follow the magic money trail.

Nicola Sturgeon “went out of her way to demonise” those, like Joanna Cherry who dared to query SNP finances.
