@KathrynPorter26 @LcpEnergy Hi Kathryn, could you follow me so I can DM you?

Spot the wind on today's generation chart from @lcpEnergy. If you magnify the picture and squint really hard you might see it. The little orange sliver is solar. The huge purple bit is gas #Dunkelflaute #energysecurity

@whippletom Fabulous story, beautifully written

@whippletom He will be relived to hear it

@whippletom Fabulous piece. I’d stake the life of my first-born on your wife having written it

Two litters of wildcat kittens have been born in the Cairngorms 🎉 Following the release of 19 wildcats last summer, two females have successfully given birth in the wild, marking a huge milestone in our efforts to restore wildcats in Scotland ➡ savingwildcats.org.uk/kittensborninw…

If Britain were a stock I’d be buying. The fundamentals are good and governance is bound to improve after the election thetimes.com/article/13d67c…

As an old Wykehamist, I'm uncomfortable with all this talk about Rishi Sunak's middle-class upbringing. Picking on posh kids is a socially-acceptable form of bigotry, but bigotry nonetheless. Can we all go back to being rude about Etonians instead? Those guys totally deserve it.

@christopher6460 Thanks

@emmacduncan Just read your piece in todays Times about tax policy. It was excellent..

How badly Britain has done compared to the G7 since the Tories came to power thetimes.co.uk/article/b1156e…

@geographyjim Hi Jim, could you follow me so that I can DM you?

This is a good reminder that (a) not all people have the same housing needs (b) and not all places have the same population mix. Here's how it looks if we focus on the population of adults aged 20+ (who are far more likely to need their own place to live).

OMG!!!! This is fucking genius!

@SteveAkehurst @greenmiranda Hi Steve could you follow me so I can DM you?

Really interesting by @greenmiranda on Con-to-Green switchers. It passed by slightly unnoticed that Greens did as much damage to the Conservatives as Labour in this year’s locals. Points to some notable tensions within the Green coalition, too. on.ft.com/3yiKclT

This, by contrast, is one of the very biggest issues in modern British education today.

this is actually rather smart and at times very very funny

I’ll explain. Dear Barron, Your father will not attend your graduation. Not because he’s on trial for 34 felony charges in New York. Not because he tried to hide his dalliance with a porn star while your mother was pregnant with you. Not because he’s been denied leave by the judge. He hasn’t. It’s because he didn’t bother to attend the graduations for any of your step siblings. Not the Powder Ranger, not Fredo, not the love of his life, not the one he doesn’t remember. Sadly, it’s who he is. If it’s not about him it doesn’t matter. I imagine you must be relieved to not have your graduation turned into a fundraising spectacle or a campaign rally. Enjoy your special day without the circus. Regards, Jack

This is the most moving piece I have read for a long time theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…

The Kate Middleton Photo Scandal has now got me seriously questioning this. 😒

Wogan: "They don't seem to make any concession to the fact that you're a woman." Thatcher: "No. Why should they? I don't make any concession to the fact that they're men."😂

How we got into the local-government finance mess and how to get out of it thetimes.co.uk/article/aac940…

"Are you yourselves not afraid?" he asked the judge and court officials: "Are you not afraid to watch what our country is turning into?...Are you not afraid that not only you, but also your children and your grandchildren, will have to live in this absurdity, this dystopia?"
