Isn’t it long overdue for @financialtimes.com to update their sharing buttons to: a) include BlueSky b) deprioritise, or remove, X
An important read which creates a direct route from the Reform financing Cottrell family to sanctioned Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich
Ok, so VPN’s would bypass carrier level controls. So does that mean device level controls are needed?
A great quote from a wonderful book, The Blue Machine by @helenczerski.bsky.social While the book is discussing Hawaiian fishponds it’s so apt to electricity generation energy. Wind turbines, solar panels, geothermal etc. replicate nature. Fossils fuels dig up and burn nature.
She started out by quoting a report that cast doubt on whether the number of treatments had been increased 🤷🏻♂️
This said, there are some positive trends with adult poverty too. For example, the Trussell Trust is reporting that food bank usage is falling. Again, this clearly doesn’t mean ‘poverty has been ended’ It does mean things are beginning to move in the right direction again
The £36k does have exception though. And those exceptions appear to account for some of the differences you’re concerned about. As per an earlier comment though, unless you propose universal funding for everyone, there will always be cliff edges
GBIS was ended because it was not working as expected, with both uptake and delivery falling short of expectations. It is being replaced with a different approach, which will hopefully be more successful
This is made very clear when you read the article I linked too
I’ve migrated my account from BlueSky to EuroSky. As a user my account is unchanged, except for the slightly different handle. No loss of followers, posts etc. However my data is now hosted within the EU & governed by EU tech laws, instead of hosted in the US & governed by US tech laws.
A strong reason to begin moving your data to EU tech alternatives Aware of the irony posting this on BlueSky, but perfect should never be the enemy of good

Actually that undercooks it, it’s a 42% reduction so far in 2026. That’s before the latest measures agreed with the French government have begun
They announced they would be reducing net migration and reforming the immigration system. They didn’t announce the precise details of how it would be done in the manifesto. But it is entirely normal that policies are not fully detailed in manifestos 🤷🏻♂️
Trussell Trust reporting the number of people using food banks has fallen taken Labour took office. This is very relevant, and suggests there are less people going hungry today, under a Labour government
Wow, a sign of both the evil, and the desperation of Putin. Russia is struggling….
Do you think stealing hundreds of thousands of children meets the definition of genocide? For reference here is the UN definition of genocide.
There wasn’t an “accusation” Polanski was asked a question, and this is how he choose to answer it
Then Ecosia is available to add as a standard option as the search engine for standard and private browsing. No need to add as a custom search engine
At the point gas was 2% pf generation it was not setting the wholesale price of electricity. The wholesale price was negative for a few hours today, and a small amount of gas was burnt the entire time.
