🇪🇺💙🌊Love EU. Hate Brexit. #FBPE ANTIFA #ToriesOut. Over from Twitter seeing what the gig is. Shades of Lady Macbeth but in a good way.
Now that the days are getting shorter, I'm more likely to come across Pine Martens on the #BlackIsle but they are not all nocturnal as some folk believe, they are crepuscular and thankfully with a bit of patience you can catch a glimpse of them now and again. Lovely, but deadly little predators...

#artificialintelligence is being used to write #books that 'compete' with best-sellers on #Amazon's website... to be frank, #publishers have always run with many 'me too' tittles, but #AI has both made this process quicker, but also (as the story suggest) now a lot more sinister...

The Q. here is, of course, can Amazon disprove that it is colluding with these 'publishers' (with a big anti-trust case in the US, this may be more difficult than they might hope)

With 6 deaths and more missing in the English Channel as refugees in small boats struggle against the waves, my thoughts are with the victims and their families. But I won't call it a tragedy. Tragedies are unforeseen and unavoidable.We knew this week would end in death, because it keeps on happening.

The U.K. government must now have a Safe Routes Week.

Over in the other place X marks the spot. It’s ghastly. My followers fluctuate bizarrely and the suggestions for who to follow or what I ‘might like’ make for grim viewing. Eg Gah!

The stock market is failing according to the CBI. So why don’t we just let it go?

I posted this on Twitter this morning: https://twitter.com/RichardJMurphy/status/1942861045426516103 My point is serious. The CBI is saying that the situation with regard to the UK stock exchange is getting desperate, because it is losing out to overseas markets and not attracting sufficient business. The question that needs to be asked is, why is that?...
