Every now and then, I need to remind you all that some driven librarians in the 70s and 80s made our modern, digital environment happen with nothing much more complex than Fortran, BASIC, DOS, and a 24hr plug for downloading. πŸ‘chapeau
I am old enough to know some of these automation librarians, yet still young enough to gaze in wonder at what they achieved with the technology they had. πŸ‘

This is the least Chaos with Ed Miliband I’ve ever seen. Ed is almost Netflix and chill here. Much better than a Rishi buying bags of Maccas that no one will eat πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

So pleased I stayed up to see this. I’m not only elated to get rid of the Tories here, Charlotte Cane, our new LD MP, has worked tirelessly as a district councillor, a parish councillor, selling cakes at Reach fair… you name it. A genuine local voice with tenacity. We’ll done!

I earn more than 78% of the UK population*, am in a highly professional job, needing a postgraduate degree. I rent the cheapest possible terraced house and don’t ever expect to own. This makes me physically sick: pay your damn taxes, just like the rest of us. *IFS website
Around 6.8 million taxpayers face being dragged into a higher tax bracket next year. See how you can slash your bill.
