This, from @ClimateSciBreak is just…perfect. Watch the full clip, you won’t be disappointed. 🧑🍳
Brilliant. Hope this catches on and more schools do this.
Volunteers wanted! Our school has closed the road outside to traffic at peak times, making it safer, quieter, and cleaner. Glen Road is marshalled by staff and parent volunteers. To lend a hand or ask questions, email enquiries@netheredge.sheffield.sch.uk #netheredge #s7
Great interview with @JasminKParis by Finlay Wild on his #gomountaingoats podcast. Something to listen to while waiting for updates from @keithdunn #bm100 open.spotify.com/episode/5jc…
Go Jasmin!
Jasmin Paris @JasminKParis began loop four at 35:53:27.
Jasmin is the second woman to begin a fourth loop at the #BM100. The first was Sue Johnston in 2001.

Interested in 'what works' in employment?
Three useful looking papers here which Prof Dan Finn has just received via FOI.
I'm looking forward to reading, but this is publicly funded work with clear public benefits - @DWPgovuk should have published them.

Long-awaited details of the government’s voter ID scheme have now been released, including details of which IDs will be accepted at the polling station. The list contains plenty of options for older voters, but few for younger voters.

Pls share to stop confusion.
THERE IS NO £2,500 CAP ON ENERGY BILLS.
Instead the new 1 Oct guarantee, like the old caps, limits
- Daily charge (28p gas, 46p elec)
- & Unit rates (10p/kWh gas, 34p/kWh elec)
So use more, pay more. £2,500 is just what someone with avg use'd pay

Worth repeating. Take all the tax changes coming in over next few years and:
If your income is < £155k, you lose
If your income is > £155k you win
If your income > £1m you gain more than £40,000

Here’s why people cycling two abreast is actually better for people driving motor vehicles.
It’s quite simple really.

When Lardarse flies to Belfast on Monday, 1) Will he apologise for having promised the Unionists that an Irish Sea border would be agreed 'over my dead body'? 2) Will he try to avoid getting as pissed as he was when he told NI businessmen that if they got any extra red tape 1/4
Most of the replies make for depressing reading. Ignorance abounds. Infection levels are estimated using the ONS covid infection survey. Community testing is irrelevant.

As a civil servant who’s been out of the office for a couple of weeks (leave, wfh), imagine my disappointment this morning when I arrived at my desk in Sheffield to find Jacob Rees Mogg hadn’t left me a note.
Lost my keys somewhere on my long run today. Please keep an eye out. Hopefully I dropped them on a popular path rather than on one of the indistinct trods @dpfellrunners @HelpSheffield @peakdistrict

“Statisticians dispute statements”?
It’s a bit stronger than that. Johnson lies repeatedly & is not being held to account. This is undermining our democracy. Essential listening.
Statisticians dispute statements made in the Commons by Boris Johnson and the official watchdog has warned the PM that the jobs figures he's sharing are wrong.
