Not entirely sure why this superb Australian drama is getting zero coverage. One of the best TV dramas this year imo. Anyway, it's on BBC iPlayer inews.co.uk/culture/televi…

Something to look forward to: the wonders of science; the magic of Merlyn; why you really are NOT a gadget. Merlin Sheldrake & Jo Marchant talk about some books they love at 4.30 this afternoon BBC Radio 4 and/or online thereafter. bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…

The Tories f***ing VOTED to do this.

Know your seat. Know your tactical vote. Wait patiently for the election.

Should we have a right to happiness?
No, argues Julian Baggini: 'Even Bhutan, whose constitution enshrines “Gross National Happiness”, pledges merely to “enhance” its people’s happiness and wellbeing.'

Tomorrow Ofgem announce the new energy price cap.

Wholesale gas is 6 times cheaper today than August. Wholesale gas is sitting at its lowest levels for 18 months.

Ofgem must cut energy bills.

It would be a great relief if the various parties within the Conservative Party would all go their separate ways to conduct their civil war and leave the rest of us to get on with rebuilding what used to be a competent and quite prosperous country (which they’ve ruined)

Today: Wholesale gas 179p per therm
August: Wholesale gas 702p per therm

Cut gas bills now. End the energy rip off.
