The map of Reform Councils in the UK. So much for 'WE'VE TAKEN OVER THE NATION !!!"

@OnTheSlipRoad @RestoreBritain_ And don’t forget the Proms!
English
@RestoreBritain_ Funny how these boys and Reform / Restore only look at 5% of the BBC’s output. Anyone would think they don’t like drama, documentaries, educations content, children’s content, radio, podcasts, history, culture and science 🤷♀️
English
A Restore Britain Government would defund the BBC.
English
@dpcoverdale It was brilliant. I was listening from the south coast. And to add to it, Adam Hinshelwood’s new club Worthing FC won the National League South and are promoted to the National League.
English
If you listen to one thing today, make it this 60 seconds of commentary on BBC Radio York…

@pacoverdale @SussexTW Tomorrow

@RowanWalters133 @mitchellsnik The key phrase is “over time”. They take months to degrade so are still a danger to wildlife.
English
Really disappointed to see thousands of balloons being released in Liverpool in the memory of Welsh drag queen "The Vivienne"
These balloons go on to entangle and choke wildlife it's something I often see firsthand.
English
This is not the way to remember them. Balloons do not disappear, they are just litter. They come back to Earth and cause harm to wildlife. Please everyone do not release balloons! Plant trees instead, blow bubbles. #BalloonReleases

Hundreds of schoolchildren released pink balloons this lunchtime for Grace and Sarah Keeling, who were tragically swept away by the sea at Withernsea just after the new year. The funeral of the daughter and mother from Nottinghamshire took place today. Pupils and teachers at Quarrydale Academy in Sutton-in-Ashfield fell silent as the cortège stopped, so they could say an emotional final farewell. 📷 John Prince

@EdwardJDavey @Jgs_x Thank you Ed. I love the BBC & pay my licence fee along with millions of others. We would lose so much culture without the BBC - the Proms, the orchestras and choirs and the brilliant radio. Vile GB News does not represent me.

@Johnnypapa64 I had that yellow Clairol hairdryer for years! Loved Woolies. I’ve still got lots of stuff I bought there.

Celebrity spotting in this Christmas advert from Woolworths in 1980.

@SeasideFerry @brightdome I was in the Dome this afternoon sharing my memories with the volunteers of school speech days and musical events I’ve been in and seen. I didn’t see you or your stall! I’m sorry I missed you.
English
After this afternoon's talk @brightdome I can now say I've performed on the same stage as ABBA! It's a fantastic venue with lots of architectural heritage 😍
English
@PaintingsLondon I loved it. Had a “Rear Window” feel.
English
This week's theme was The Backs of Houses.
Hope you enjoyed it.
Take a look at the timeline over the last week for full details of these and the rest of the featured pieces.

@josephattard02 Banksy is wrong. Judges in Britain don’t use gavels.
English
Say what you like about Banksy, but with these two pictures, he's managed to sum up the attitude of 'British democracy' to free speech when it comes to Israel and the genocide in Gaza.
Trotsky once said that art must tell the truth. I'd say he's met that standard.
English
@RickyHale_ One glaring error. Judges in Britain don’t use gavels.
English
Gotta hand it to the authorities. At first I was mad when they scrubbed the Banksy, but they have unintentionally made one of the most powerful artworks of all time.
English
@abctje6 @DowntonAbbey Is that Raquel Cassidy who plays Miss Baxter, or should it be Mrs Molesley?
English
A grand celebration from London.
Scenes from the world premiere of Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale with the cast and crew.
Experience the motion picture event only in theaters September 12.

@Arbitrash14 @LBFlyawayhome Sounds lovely.
English
@LBFlyawayhome We had one of those. My father glassed it over, then painted fish on card cut them out, did same plants and rocks then hung them up on the kitchen side. Our own aquarium. I loved it. There was always slight movement.
English
@BrightonHoveBus The driver on the Jacky Harding 5B bus has just driven off leaving at least 5 people at the Braybon Ave top stop. They are furious. He didn’t wait for them to get on. It was about 12.35 pm.
English
@Johnnypapa64 He’s also brilliant in The Red Shoes, a Powell and Pressburger film.
English
From 1968 the wonderful Robert Helpmann as the child catcher in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
*Robert would make the children laugh between takes to ease the tension.
English
@mrmarksteel No one has mentioned that the folk musician Aly Bain was born in Lerwick. Oh, and the knitwear….
English
What does anyone know about the town of Lerwick, capital of Shetland? (I’m not just asking because it might be needed for survival during a World War).
English
@jilltowers My mum calls it a “four nag”. A Sussex term maybe?
English
My brothers used to make these in the 1970s.
Old pram wheels, scrap wood and rope.
I remember they’d burn the holes through with a red hot poker from the fire (no drills back then for us!).
No brakes…Just our feet and loads of nerve!
We called them “chassys”.
Happy memories.
English
@DreyfusJames I loved the fact that it displayed messages round the top, such as, “congratulations. It’s a boy” for a royal birth.
English
This will never be the BT Tower.
This is the Post Office Tower.
One of my favourite buildings in London. Both horrifically ugly & utterly beautiful …
Used to stare out of my boarding school window at it over 45 years ago, a tiny needle in the distance.
A symbol of home.
