The argument for putting CCTV everywhere was that it would make us safer. Now it turns out victims and police rely on footage and it isn’t even there. Where recordings are actually being made, some are retained for just 48 hours. What’s the point? It seems we’ve reached the point where Sainsbury’s can employ facial recognition to stop £10 shop thefts but we can’t have meaningful CCTV coverage of known physical and sexual assault/harassment hotspots. Tells you a lot about capitalism’s priorities

Quite. The only men facing consequences in the UK are ones who might have done something causing financial or reputational harm. When it comes to actual sexual offences, it’s crickets.

Well, to be picky, they do not make you hallucinate, they can however trigger delusions. The two things are not the same, although both are symptomatic of psychosis

Exactly what the UK needs, another tiny right wing populist political party. Maybe eventually all former Reform politicians will each have their own mini-party

@thebaywindowgirl @TheBreadmonkey No, just a brisk walk with power walking intervals

@TheBreadmonkey I’m too poorly to do that. I know I asked you to tell me, but I’ve gone beyond

@dianaprobst That’s good going
