Good work from the Hansard reporter.

Surely time for Big Sam.

Really not understanding why a conference on cyber security at Old Trafford would have Jason Manford as the keynote speaker. Nor why they're so persistent in asking me to go.

The best sandwich stall on Strutton Ground playing Marquee Moon today. They know.

I thought he couldn't play for anyone else this season, having already played for Liverpool and Villa.

Club Statement Aston Villa v Legia Warszawa in UEFA Europa Conference League

It was different. The Legia fans attacked police outside Villa Park and the police advised that they shouldn't be let in. It wasn't a pre-determined ban (although their ticket allocation had been reduced following violence at previous games). www.avfc.co.uk/news/2023/no...

Obviously there would be some challenges around data sharing. But with better insight, we might be able to spot emerging issues or see how different MPs deal with the same questions (when do they ask us?). Most MPs use the same casework system so developing a shared schema could be a great start.

Constituency casework FAQs and explainers produced by the Commons Library to help caseworkers with a range of constituent queries.

Really interesting to see these stats. The Commons Library helps Members respond to casework questions either through bespoke responses or casework articles. But if we knew more about the large number of requests which don't come to us, we could help more

AKA being a bit Spursy (apart from the aberration in Bilbao)

Keep getting emails inviting me to a cyber security conference, at Manchester United Football Stadium, headlined by Ross Kemp (yes, that Ross Kemp). For some reason, it's just not appealing to me.

Camping pitch when we arrived on 25 July. Lots of green.

Camping pitch when we arrived on 25 July. Lots of green.

Camping pitch when we left after 3 weeks of warm dry weather. Much less green grass.

If they can get so much data from surveys, why do they force us all to log in to read the news?

If only Ian Brown had given us some clues about him becoming a Covid conspiracy theorist. #totp

Pet Sounds at Primavera 2016. Beautiful to hear those songs live. Sad to see how much Brian Wilson was struggling. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-i_...

Totally. And have been back for more cultural visits since.

So a bit jealous of the whole Champions League thing, but mainly of getting to watch your team play in such a great city.

I later learned the song meant something like "f**k off Spain, f**k off Real Madrid". The game itself was a drab 0-0, but we picked up where we'd left off and had a great night. Swapped my brand new Villa shirt for a fag-burned Bilbao one which I've still got.

One lad, who'd studied in England, decided to wear a West Ham shirt because it was the closest he could get to Villa. He helped us negotiate the bars. We ended up singing with them in a full-on Bilbao pub which got filmed and put on Midlands Today as an example of fans getting on together.

Very jealous of the Manchester and Tottenham fans tonight in Bilbao. Had a trip there with #avfc in the late 1990s and it was just the best. Took the sleeper train to IrΓΊn, bus to Bilbao and was drinking with their fans by 11am.

Watch Rams free today! β€” Oh You Pretty Things

Enjoyed this beautiful film about the designer Dieter Rams. Wondering how his design principles could/should apply to websites: www.ohyouprettythings.com/rams

Nice. We’re going for the Bank Holiday. Any tips? Apart from take lots of photos.

Or an actual good album, A Certain Ratio’s ACR Loco (2020, first album was 1980)

Not their best album, but still decent. Get Ready by New Order (2021, Movement was 1981)

It shouldn't be that difficult technically - one challenge would be around persuading people that they might have to give up on some of their engagement metrics (even though they are all meaningless given bots etc).

Short answer: no. Government needs to come up with its version of POSSE (Publish on Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere).

They're just cashing in now the truth is out about Penelope Keith.

I'd forgotten how good that is - the perfect pop song.
