All I’m saying is that if he is a political genius, he’s the first political genius to be forced out of office because they managed to wrap themselves in a web of obfuscation about appointing a non-entity sex pest to a junior role in the government whip’s office. – at Greenwich, London

These are close to my parents house, and 'just tucked into a shed' waiting to be stumbled across by the curious. Every time I pop in I'm blown away by the age, condition and craftsmanship

The amazing collection of sculptured medieval graveslabs in the lapidarium, originally a burial aisle, in the churchyard at Kilmartin Church in Argyll. These are some of the more recent historical wonders to be found in Kilmartin Glen. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/k…
Kilmartin carved stones. The image shows the interior of a small stone building with a translucent roof that slopes to the left and right from a central ridge. Lined up around the three visible walls are 16 carved grave slabs, some with intricate patterns and one at the far end showing a knight in full armour in high relief.

At last! Stagecoach bus service from Aviemore to Coire Cas carpark has improved. Early 7am service, weekend service and later, last bus down. They've even rebranded and spruced up their buses! Well done. #environment #publictransport #NationalParkService #greenissues

Either the prospect of being sent to Rwanda is a tough deterrent that will stop people trying to cross the Channel, or it’s a wonderful, vibrant place to be sent to start a new life. It can’t be both.
