This is a perfect symbol of how we as a collective are accelerating the sleepwalking to our eventual well-deserved finale, refusing to listen to the voices of those who are trying to tell us what’s happening.

The walled garden in Gladstone Park is utterly gorgeous at the moment. Quite something. Lots of hard work to get it looking like this for sure.

Has anyone briefed the PM on the legal & policy changes introduced by his government which provide that children in care aged 16 and 17 don’t need care where they live. English and maths to age 18 but no care 🤷🏻‍♀️

Banksy wouldn’t do a real stuffed cat would he? In the site of the new billboard which was put up to replace the one he graffitied with a beautiful black cat. #Banksy #cricklewood The Guardian

A beautiful walk with Bert by the Thames estuary from Rainham to Purfleet. Some nice sniffs around the foreshore for Bert. All off road except the last few hundred metres to Purfleet Station. Huge sense of history, loads of birdlife and it’s all so quiet and peaceful.
