If this gets 500 reposts I’ll show you the milking machine induced orgasm and intense post cum torture that came next. Trust me you want to see it! 🤭 🥷 @VoidRubber

This is Canary Wharf, before and after development. First derelict and unproductive. Then transformed into a bustling centre of commerce. There were those who campaigned against redevelopment. Against growth. In favour of decline. Thankfully they were ignored.

🌡️Opponents of air-conditioning see it as an energy-intensive luxury. But we know that this is not the case. By denying ourselves relief from the heat, Europe stunts our own health and productivity. The mindset of energy poverty is literally killing us!
‘Unless authorities begin to treat the need for cooling as seriously as the need for heating, and fulfil their duty to protect the most vulnerable, inequalities will widen as high-income households fork out for their own protection and leave the rest sweating.’

It’s outrageous that the Mayor is still suggesting he can find the cash to subsidise free car parking and yet there’s no cash for tiger pass. Icing on the cake is that he hasn’t even done any analysis of the effects. cambridge-news.co.uk/news/lo…

Yesterday the High Court heard from both sides in the Mill Road Bridge TRO legal challenge. Some supporters of a low-traffic Mill Road were observing in court, and this summary is based on the notes made by one of them.. millroad4people.org/2025/06/…

. @paulbristow79 yesterday MILL ROAD LIVES Facebook page run by Paul Weaver was viciously attacking an independent local business and even accused the owners of pushing children into the road. It’s outrageous, you continually engage and support this page. Can you please comment?

. @paulbristow79 More MILL ROAD LIVES Paul Weaver relentlessly attacking and baiting an independent business. Pathetically attempting to attach blame to them for any problems. 75% of MILL ROAD LIVES is about you the rest is vile bullying. Care to comment? facebook.com/share/p/1AUR44e…

. @paulbristow79 Please can you confirm your connections with the Facebook group MILL ROAD LIVES, run by Paul Weaver? The page is predominantly promotional of you, while the rest consists of bullying and vicious personal attacks. You engage regularly with it. Is this acceptable?

The wider issue here is that universities are unbelievably naive about how technology is destroying their traditional teaching & assessment model. It’s like you run a coaching inn & the railways arrive & you decide I know, LET’S BUILD MORE STABLES.

This is right
People have had enough of Elon Musk interfering with our country’s democracy when he clearly knows nothing about Britain. It’s time to summon the US ambassador to ask why an incoming US official is suggesting the UK government should be overthrown.

It's a tough trading environment on the UK high street. Investment in a low traffic Mill Road will further protect local businesses by making it a place to go to, not drive through @neil4labour1 @richardhowitt @mikelode1 @CambsCC @GreaterCambs standard.co.uk/business/busi…

Devolution: Except in ‘Greater Cambridge’ the shots will be called by the Cambridge Growth Company - not the elected mayor and @CambsPboroCA (established 2017) Labour confirmed Peter Freeman as chair in October, and that he will report to the housing minister once a month. (1)

Ministers see streamlining local gov as a way to create more powerful local mayors - ‘in an attempt to unblock infrastructure and attract greater investment.’ (2) gov.uk/government/publicatio…

Imagine thinking calling Irish people, “Paddystinian”, was an insult. The bed-wetters of Troll Aviv must have thought they’d struck gold. Meanwhile people here are laughing their arses off, and using it. Lads, ye have no idea how to begin to own the Irish.

In this room in a house in Cambridgeshire in August 1945, ten German nuclear scientists, including Heisenberg and Hahn, were told that the Americans had dropped the atomic bomb. They didn't believe it at first, and when they realised it was true, some wanted to commit suicide.
