The best traditions of British civil society but also weapons grade autism, superb. Can't wait to go back

Took the infant son to a public open day at a model railway centre yesterday and it left me in a state of total glee for the rest of the day, and in complete Rule Britannia mode also. Wonderful.

Also this judge was slightly too clear in his remarks about what he was trying to achieve with the sentence. Normally they're a bit more oblique about it

Not even the Bluesky sadcases or the rabbit barrister could bring themselves to take the judge's side in the Fordingbridge case and BBC News was comfortable to lead this morning with the victim's dismay at the sentence. Things appear to be shifting

Three teenagers escaped prison after gang-raping two schoolgirls. The country is shocked and disgusted. But it is explicit government policy to send fewer criminals under eighteen to prison. I’ve written to David Lammy demanding he changes course.

@OriginJo That doesn't really make much difference in pubs though. Means you can't sell a pint of 5% lager for less than £1.42, or 97p for a John Smith's. Very few pubs in any danger of trying that

@ClwydEnComu They're on to a warmer one with the women's bathrooms stuff than most of their other gear, people do legitimately hate gender neutral toilets

Your standard Reform-curious dude is pretty happy with the notion of killing enough Russians so that they stop, it's not a particularly complicated call even

There's an amount of segmentation here too of course. My local in Cardiff will sell you a pint of Brains Bitter at £2.65 (Mon-Thur) but charge £6.15 a Cruzcampo (UK brewed) in the same round

Yet another sacked and disgraced South Wales Police officer can't be named in the press. The force says it would be bad for their mental health. The PCC just nods along. Surely at some point an elected official has to speak out on this? Great work by @ConorGogarty.

@OldRoberts953 A roller coaster of an article. Such a mad bastard that other South African mercenaries didn't want to deal with him but Belfast Pride lauded him as a pioneer. Also David Trimble's ex brother in law

@SimpGanassi @PunishedRWR When the 2nd preferences for the rightwing anti-immigration Irish Freedom Party were allocated at the last European election in Dublin, Dr Umar Al-Qadri picked up 36 votes. Saw a ballot paper in Cardiff that went Conservative, Conservative, Communist.

@PunishedRWR I stood as a paper candidate for Labour in a two member ward when I was a student. I got ~200 more votes than my co-candidate, largely because a lot of people voting for an anti-student Independent candidate (who is now in restore) gave their second vote to me for some reason!

People who aren't normally very parochial get incredibly parochial on the topic of supermarkets. The British supermarket system is especially efficient and competitive and keeps food costs unusually low despite stagnating incomes, our food is relatively cheap

Ross McCafferty@RossMcCaff

Such a scam that right wingers have suddenly switched to 'profit margins' when discussing supermarkets, because its far easier to say 'oh poor Tesco is scraping by on a 2% profit margin' rather than consider whether Tesco making £3bn a year while people starve is good

@DuncanStott @microengineer It was, there were just hardly any trans people around so it didn't matter as much. Transgender former child antique expert Lauren Harries used the ladies changing rooms at the leisure centre where my mum worked in the early 2000s and people really didn't like it

@microengineer That's not true though is it? No-one was particularly bothered in the good times before the whole woke vs anti-woke culture war kicked off. Normal people used to be passive, 'live and let live'.

@theobertram I guess pensions become a lot less important if the expectation is that you will cohabit with your children and be supported by family in old age? A state pension might be enough by itself in that case

Striking difference *by religion* in proportion of people saving into a pension... (from p.127 of the Pension Commission interim report).
