Brighton's West Pier opened in 1866, closed to the public in 1975 and was gutted by fire in 2003. Storm Austen has just taken another big piece of it. Sad to watch a bit of seaside history go like this.
We have just lost a big part of the West Pier #Brighton to #StormAusten @StormHour @brightonargus

Sad to hear Tom Skerritt, died at the age of 93. From Alien to Top Gun. His family released a beautiful tribute: “We are heartbroken by his loss. While the world knew Tom through his remarkable acting career, we knew him for his humor, curiosity, wisdom, generosity, and the love he brought into our lives. He cared deeply about imagination, creativity, storytelling, service, veterans, the natural world, and helping others find and share their own voices.”

🚨 Jackdaw Gas Field Approved 🇬🇧 The UK Government has green-lit the Jackdaw gas field off the coast of Aberdeen. Production is set to begin by the end of this month. Where is the gas going? Most of the gas from the Jackdaw field will flow directly into the UK domestic energy network via the St Fergus terminal. At peak production, it is expected to supply roughly 6% of total UK gas demand, helping to boost domestic energy security. Who gets the money? Commercial profits from gas sales will go to the operators, Shell and Equinor. The UK Exchequer will collect profit-related taxes, which are projected to raise nearly £4 billion by 2034. The Green Transition: These tax revenues are earmarked for the government’s new Energy Wealth Fund to invest directly in clean energy projects. While the boost in domestic supply improves energy reliability, the government notes it will not immediately lower household utility bills.

The TV licence could be extended to YouTube and Netflix. The TV licence was invented when Britain had one channel and a test card. Charging it on YouTube and Netflix is like putting a stamp on your emails to save the Royal Mail.

Up to 300 schools across Northern Ireland received a threatening “explosive device” email this morning. PSNI is now treating it as a hoax, likely sent from outside the UK. Some schools sent pupils home. What an awful morning for pupils, parents and teachers.

An Australian MP hit by a car outside her own office, in a country town, in the middle of the afternoon. Helen Haines is an independent, and people on all sides are calling her one of the kindest people in Parliament. Passers-by held the driver until police got there. Motive unknown.
