Labour seem to be getting a lot of credit in their first few days in government for merely behaving like grown ups who want to govern sensibly, which is a damning indictment of the last lot.

As CGI characters go, it's like that time Gollum had a conversation with himself.

I'd like to wish all His Majesty's treasonous subjects in the colonies a happy sedition day. Tell me, how's that great experiment in democracy working out for you? I love how you've re-created the House of Lords with the Supreme Court.

I don't know why Keir Starmer always says his dad was a tool maker, I'm pretty sure his mum did most of the work.

Come on Biden, you have the opportunity to initiate the political assassination with the best comedy timing in history. Preferably on Fifth Avenue

So does the Supreme Court ruling mean that Biden could have Trump shot on the basis that he's a threat to the Constitution and have total immunity?

Remember in Star Trek IV when Chekov threw the phaser at the military bloke before running off and ending up in hospital? There needs to be a modern Star Trek episode where they have to go back and recover that to save the timeline. It could be called "Chekov's Gun".

While I have a number of issues that influence my vote, there is one single issue where if a party doesn't promise it, I will not vote for them under any circumstances. Proportional Representation.

Is it just me or has life had an extra little spark in it since birds were declared as dinosaurs? Hearing dinosaur song and having squirrel proof dinosaur feeders just makes the world that little bit happier.

We need a new name for climate change deniers. They have ones like eco-terrorist or eco-fascist, so lets have a new one for them. I say we call them the "climate blind".

The end of the Bute House Agreement in this manner will embolden the right of the SNP. The Scottish left will have to push back as hard as they can.

Worth pointing out that Voyager 1 is over 15 billion miles away and the tech it's using was launched into space a week before the Atari 2600 came out. A private corporation would have written this thing off years ago. FUND NASA.

The effects of puberty blockers are known (including the downsides and side-effects). The effects of HRT are known. The regret rate (incredibly low) is known. 16 year olds in England can join the army or marry. But they can't change their gender. It's transphobia masked as "concern".

Percent targets have never been a good way to tackle climate change, and coherent policies that set out a pathway to change are so much better. This was always going to happen.

"If you're under 25 your brain isn't fully developed, so you can't be trusted to make informed decisions" I'm seeing this a LOT lately, especially today thanks to the Cass review. And it's utter guff, based on hearsay, misunderstandings of neuroscience, or wilful ignorance. Why? I'll tell you /1

Right Handedness Matters in law and in life. It shouldn’t take courage to say so. I want to start a charity to promote clarity about right handedness in law, policy and language in order to protect everybody’s rights. There is only one form of handedness. People shouldn’t be afraid to say this.

I'd really like it if cishet presenting white men, especially journalists, stopped talking at length about hate crime legislation that exists to protect minorities like it's middle-class debating club fodder instead of a matter of life and death to those on the receiving end of hate crimes.
