Had a lovely reply from #the3million. Now I'm contemplating a Christmas card design competition for my MP :)

Just emailed #the3million to ask if they have any plans to sell new Christmas cards in the future.

(My MP complained that I'm using up the pack that Axel Scheffler designed. Sadly, physical proof of settled status still seems relevant.)

Well that was unexpected,— I just got an email from my MP. It appears that he has spotted that I've sent him a #the3million Christmas card before but he didn't notice that I missed last year. #HambleValley
@openrightsgroup coincidentally I sent my MP Axel Scheffler's #the3million physical proof Christmas card, which he'll ignore...

Remembered to send my MP a Christmas card this year. (Last year was a write off for reasons.)

Public Service Announcement: If you've worked in the UK, and you've changed the UK number that you use for accessing Gov.UK services, it is impossible to restore access because the default recovery workflow requires UK-issued photo ids: either a UK passport, or a UK driving license, are mandatory, even if you never had one or provided one in the first place.

Happily enough, as long as you keep your National Insurance Number, you can create a new Gateway ID, but this time following the steps provided by @the3million in this link, using the GOV.UK ID Check app… that way, if you have a biometric passport, and access to a modern enough iPhone or Android phone with contactless payment built in, you can verify your identity with non-UK passports.

You're welcome! (Including myself in the future…)

Just had an email from @the3million about a photography project about EU citizens living in the UK, who are interested in sharing their migration stories and experiences.That reminded me of this series of #portraits that I took back in 2017:

Portrait Of Britain — Photographer Stirling

Having been behind the camera since 1987 with varying intensity, photography has been close to my heart ever since. It has been a journey with a lot of discovery and experimenting. From having my first exhibition in Zwolle in 1990 and a little photography business, to happy snapper and hardly touc
