Great article Adam. The idea that UK has ever had anything remotely like an open borders policy is laughable and Starmer knows that better than most!

A suspected danger to the state will always outweigh a real danger to the citizens of the state.

In Wales, we’re one more flood away from another disaster like Aberfan | Aaron Thierry It is only a matter of time before a mountainside is brought down. We need climate adaptation help – and we need it now, says climate expert Aaron Thierry

A reminder that the Royal Family claim Β£500,000,000 a year in benefits even though they have Β£22bn.

While 650 MP's get an extra Β£150,000,000 in benefits a year on top of their Β£94,500 salaries.

If we are cracking down on benefits, start here.

Awful to see this happening again!

Focus is my best guess. With Ethnography I think you’re looking primarily at the cultural norms of a group while Ethnomethodology you’re more focused on the methods a group of people would use to make sense and meaning of their existence via their interactions and communication with each other.

Twitter’s heir apparentΒ isn’tΒ X or ThreadsΒ β€”Β it’sΒ Bluesky The blue bird is dead. Long live the blue sky.

Others have noted it but I will too: The big reason Bluesky is so hot right now is that the people who add value to social media - the frequent posters in specific fields - are here now, talking to each other and creating the "spectator value" that draws users and attention.

Gazan Humanitarian Scholarship We offer scholarships for citizens of Gaza who have been displaced as a result of the ongoing conflict in the region and are living in a different country (outside of the UK).

β€œThis snare was placed alongside a rare Chalk Stream which is regularly used by otters”

Repost if you agree there should be a UK wide ban on these devices!

First day as well Sara. First impressions, Bluesky arrives with a welcome breath of fresh air.

I abandoned my Twitter/X account ages ago for all of the reasons that I imagine many people here did, it feels like a good time to make a fresh start.
