For Westminster, this is a good summary of what people are saying on the doors in Makerfield. From a constituent of mine on a Reform page: "I'll probably get slated for this especially in this forum but hear me out. I've spent my whole adult life wishing that someone like me, from a working class background and from the North was leading our country. All I've seen in my lifetime is public school boys telling me how things are and to be honest, coming from a family of little to no wealth, it makes my blood boil. To have the chance of a prime minister who is born and bred in my neck of the woods. Understands the environment I grew up in if nothing else. And, more so, has a chance to take that top job and maybe, just maybe, make decisions that make a difference to people like me. That's what @AndyBurnhamGM represents for me. This feels like a one time in a generation chance to get someone in who isn't part of the establishment and may do things differently than has been done before. If people vote Reform, it won't put them in power. If they won it would merely be something to brag about but wouldn't make any fundamental difference to mine or your way of life. Alteratively, if Andy wins, it's likely he'll become our new prime minister and maybe, just maybe, we'll feel the difference. If not, vote Reform in the next general election and I'll join you. Peace out 📷"

Trump: "Somalia, it's a beautiful place. It's got no anything. It's got one thing that's really strong -- crime. All they do is run around shooting each other. It's filthy dirty, disgusting dirty. It's a horrible place. They come here, and Ilhan Omar, she heads it. She married her brother. I would imagine they're looking at her. Isn't she despicable? We ought to get those people the hell out of our country."

@NickyGeeson @paulpowlesland @glassbasics @RosieP4 Trespass for the specific reason of helping and improving the natural world, which otherwise wouldn't get done, with no harm to the landowner's interests (might even be beneficial to them!) - no problem in my judgement. Kudos to Paul.

Today I ‘roamed’ in the countryside. No need to trespass or moan about access. I walked along one of the 140,000 miles of public rights of way. Right to Roam: pointless and bad for nature

DEAN: “What’s the tariff on bananas?” LUTNICK: “10%.” DEAN: “Walmart already raised banana prices by 8%.” LUTNICK: “Well, if you build in America, there’s no tariff.” DEAN: “You can’t build bananas in America.”

@RomansCars @AutoPap 3D print a custom mount, stuck on with 3m double-sided tape. Yes they look cooler without the front plate, but that's hardly an excuse for breaking the law...

The legal responsibility for that sits with the driver rather than the selling dealer. We always supply the correct plates and mounting brackets where applicable. On many supercars there isn’t an obvious mounting point and many owners prefer not to drill the bumper. In those cases we discuss the options with the customer and leave the final decision with them.

Nothing like picking up your new SVJ Roadster with your best buddy… who also has an SVJ Roadster. Proof that surrounding yourself with the right people pays off. #Sold

@ArfurFuxAche10 @sciencegirl Of course you're right about Kelpies,although on the tour they said the artist did use real Clydesdales as his models and was inspired by their part in local history

@sciencegirl Nah , Kelpies are shape shifting spirits that haunt Scottish lochs , rivers and canals . They often appear as horses in Scottish folklore. As great as the Clydesdale horse is , this doesn't honour them .

The Kelpies are two monumental stainless-steel horse-head sculptures in Falkirk, Scotland, each about 30 meters (100 feet) tall and weighing roughly 300 tons. Honouring Scotland’s industrial heritage and the working horses that once powered its canals.

The sewage crisis laid bare As we’ve been having a wet winter, sewage has been cascading into the River Roding from outfalls everywhere. But one has been discharging for so long (550 hours, or over three weeks) that I thought it was an error with the sensor. I decided to spend my free time on a Saturday night checking it out. It was not hard to find, as the loud noise of rushing water instantly drew me towards the right part of the site. Climbing a fence, I found that the outfall was covered in brambles & fallen trees and hadn’t been inspected in years. There was clearly a fault in the storm tanks which was causing them to spill huge amounts of sewage, even when it wasn’t raining. Even worse, the outfall itself had become clogged with years of debris, so the whole site had been flooded & become a lake of sewage, literally acres in extent. The flow was so intense that it was not possible to fully measure it, but I would estimate it was at least 100 litres a second, likely more. I checked the ammonia levels & it maxed out my checker, so I used a higher range checker which gave an ammonia reading of 27ppm: ie very concentrated sewage. Doing some quick calculations, I discovered that this one spill had poured at least 180,000,000 million litres of concentrated raw sewage straight into the River Roding, putting the health of local people at risk and causing huge ecological damage to the river. It frankly beggars belief that I, as a volunteer in my spare time, was able to discover this serious illegal sewage spill, but at no point has anyone from either Thames Water or the Environment Agency thought to go and investigate the outfall that has apparently been flowing for weeks. The time for talking has ended: we now need change and real action.

Imagine you’re enjoying a peaceful day at the park and decide to climb a nearby mountain, just for the view. You keep going higher and higher until suddenly you realize you’ve gone too far—there’s no safe way back down on your own. With fear setting in, someone calls for help, and a rescue team has to come save you. At what point does adventure turn into recklessness, and who should be responsible when rescue is needed?
