Who's the billionaire behind London’s biggest mass eviction? He's the London philanthropist who says he's committed to solving homelessness. So why is Asif Aziz's Criterion Capital rushing to make hundreds of Londoners homeless in the coming weeks?

London’s “worst mass eviction in recent history” is underway; hundreds of households across London told to get out of their homes this week by the same landlord, ahead of the renters rights act. The landlord? Billionaire Asif Aziz’s Criterion Capital. www.londoncentric.media/p/asif-aziz-...

Best idea in a long time. No one thought 8 out of 10 cats does countdown would be more than a novelty, but it's a top class crossover. We just need to get @vcorenmitchell.bsky.social on the case...

Hands Off Nature - BirdWatch Ireland Tell politicians how important nature is to you and stop the EU from tearing up the laws that protect birds and nature.

I just signed a petition to stop polluters and their political allies from dismantling Europe's environmental laws. Our water, air, and health are literally on the line. It takes 1 min to sign - would mean a lot if you did too 🌍 #HandsOffNature

Not just Ireland, but Kosovo, a Muslim majority country that Israel took more than a decade to officially recognise.

I need to know more. How long are you protected under the consumer rights act? And I assume it's only from dealers (i.e proper business) as opposed to a private seller.

Yeah, absolutely mental. Found this out in Uni, so we used to ask anyone we knew. Seemed like a 75/25 split. More worrying was another question. Stand or sit while you wipe. A surprising % of people (~40) stood...

My beer of the week in today’s @dailystar.co.uk is this glorious svěltý lezák, which is a collaboration between Left Handed Giant and Vinohradský Pivovar, both of whose taprooms I know pretty well
