The members of Trinity Moravian Church in North Carolina purchased nearly $3.3 million of local residents’ medical debt for just $15,048. Then, they held a debt jubilee ceremony and burned up the debt, canceling it all.

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. electoral-reform.org.uk/vote…

"Do you not see there's a problem?" "There's an algorithm here tracking a human worker." Labour MP Darren Jones absolutely slates Amazon's European head of public policy over their dystopian surveillance of workers.

Yesterday I was arrested by @HertsPolice whilst covering a protest on the M25. I showed my press card, and I was handcuffed almost immediately. My phone was snatched out of my hand. I was searched twice, held in a cell for 5 hours, and I wasn’t questioned whilst in custody.

On the off chance you hadn't spotted it, Elizabeth Truss is an anagram of haziest bluster.
This.
Union Jack lingerie? Union Jack lingerie while saying "You've been very naughty, I'm putting you on a zero-hours contract" in a Margaret Thatcher voice?

My part in celebrating the 401½ anniversary of the sailing of the Mayflower. Tickets are a derisory £3.75, and include a glass of wine, so they're basically paying you to come, which is a bit insulting. It's close Mayflower pub too, so that will also figure in the celebrations.

We've played for St Patrick's and St Robbie Burns' Night. Anyone want to book us for St George? We know lots of English songs.

Holy graffiti outside St Mary's, Battersea. Just a shame it's pointing away from the church.

Our first acoustic gig today @CroftonGarden . We had a great time, despite the slightly damp day, and will definitely be doing it again.

Read report that church weddings were down 11% in one year to 235,000. Imagined convos in CofE HQ: "All they want us for is weddings and they don't even want those". I read on: of those 63 were same sex couples. 0.025%. I have a cunning plan.

We're back! First gig for 18 months. Now all we've got to do is find a drummer really quickly.
