Daily dietary carbon allowance?!🤬

‘Time to pay their fair share’ So they weren’t paying their fair share before? Ok then. Taxes go up ‘Time to pay their fair share’ But that’s why you raised taxes last time. Are they still not paying their fair share? Taxes go up ‘Time to pay their fair share’ Wait, I

A council shuts a High St to cars, losing 15 or so parking spaces. Shops that relied on 'nipping in' trade lose it, so have to work harder or go bust. What are the consequences for the councillors who pushed it or can they just play real life Sim City with people's livelihoods?

Imagine the government making you leave your passport, keys, and bank cards in the street with no protection. Then threatening fines or shutting your business if you refuse. That is what Digital ID and One Login means for UK directors right now. Hand over your most sensitive

"If only it wasn't for that bloody Ea Nazir and his dodgy copper shipments..."

Because you still haven’t cleared a selection of fly tips between Kencot and Burford, @WodcNews, reported repeatedly since months ago, here’s a fresh one that’s just been dumped.

‘Bad government ruins lives’. Yep. The only lives it doesn’t ruin are the politicians’. They get to sail off, utterly unaccountable, into the sunset with a solid gold pension.

Remarkable that @OxfordshireCC can take a congestion tax from 'doesn't exist' to imposing it on the public in 20 weeks, yet they still won't allow motorcycles in bus lanes despite campaigning since 2011. Perhaps the stickers for the signs cost too much.

it’s a 2 minute radio program, never repeated, broadcast 18 times a week. Bigger audience than Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, and Jimmy Fallon … combined. Millions listen, with no need for the information it gives. Just to listen. The BBC Shipping Forecast is 100 years old.

How did Britain, the cradle of liberal democracy, come to have one of the most authoritarian censorship regimes in the world? Alex Klaushofer looks at the horror of the Online Safety Act and where it came from.

With OCC getting out the big speed limit hammer again, it's back to basics. What are speed limits for?

I don't think I've ever heard such sneering, contemptuous, uncaring, patrician arrogance as from Cllr Andrew Gant on @BBCOxford. He sounded as though he was actually enjoying hearing the little people struggling to comply with his and his activist council's compliance demands.

@Councillorsuzie They still don’t get it do they? “Our Labour government is funding this” “The Mayor of London is funding this” It’s OUR money, not theirs. And they take more and more of it every day.

The only thing any UK politician - national or local - could do that would surprise me would be anything in the interests of the people forced to pay for them.

People just don't understand how influential Keir Starmer has been, behind the scenes, for so very long.

I think a lot of boomers just don't realize how absurdly far the UK has shifted towards communism. The 95th percentile of income for a person is £100,000. That's someone who is exceptionally skilled and hard working, or who got a cushy job somehow. Not even MPs earn that much,

Here’s Bridget ending the Siege of Antioch. Go Bridge!

Bridget Phillipson attending the signing of the Treaty of Versailles (Claude Monet, 1919) which she personally negotiated on behalf of Starmer.

Anyone else feel like a Sim with a particularly stupid but spiteful 10 year old pushing the buttons?

Loading up the Mark IV for the trip home. At 1/6 scale and approx 100kg it has to be driven, not carried 😎
