And no mention of Covid and developmental problems at all, at all. Single reference to "Covid disruption".

I've thought for a while that the Tories were possibly irretrievably damaged. But after Conference, I think they're actually finished.

They had 14 years and screwed it up so badly it almost destroyed them. But all they can think to do is just more of the same. No clue, no idea, no experience and no realistic policies.

t's become impossible to discuss Israel's actions. The discussion immediately gets twisted into something else entirely.

And yet the destruction of Gaza, West Bank, South Lebanon, South Syria, Iran continues.

With a side order of Yemen.

We had a power cut this morning. The cooker doesn't know what time it is. The soundbar has reset it's volume to 50%. And the home NAS thinks it's 1-1-2020.

Dang'nab'bit!

Still. Mustn't grumble.

We still don't take indoor air quality seriously. Or Hospital IPC.

NHS and UKHSA is asleep at the wheel. Streeting was useless. Who's Health Sec now? Yvette Cooper? Anyone heard from her?

Try and stay healthy out there. If you get ill, try not to give it to anyone else.

Same as last year, and the year before. And the year before. It's the "School/Uni Start" wave. We're not testing except in exceptional circumstances. We're not doing waste water testing. The reports are every 2 weeks on data that is 2 weeks (or more old). You don't get a free vax unless you're over 75. Private vax if you can find it is £95. We haven't implemented any of the recommendations from the inquiry. Hospitals are beginning to declare A&E emergencies.

He added: "UKHSA is monitoring all the data relating to COVID-19 variants in the UK and abroad, and we continue to publish our findings in our regular surveillance reports."

On a 2 weekly cycle of reports on data which is 2 weeks (or more) old. When we're not testing except in excetional circumstances.

Let's see what tomorrow's reports bring.

Alex Allen, consultant epidemiologist at the UKHSA, said: "While Covid-19 activity has shown some recent increases, cases remain at low levels in the UK.

"We're also not seeing any evidence that these are making people more ill or spreading faster than before, and this year's autumn vaccine has been specifically designed to protect against them."

One of those bicycle maintenance problems. Adjusting the bearings in pedals. There's a 9mm locknut and an adjustable bearing cup with a 10mm nut outside. In an 11mm hole. There's no way to hold the 10mm nut still while you tighten down the locknut. Or to hold the 9mm still while you loosen the 10mm nut back against it. All the time trying to find that sweet spot where the ball race is free with no sideplay.

Gah!

There must be some cunning trick or tool.

Fascinating UK country wide experiment. When overnight in 1953 sugar rationing was stopped. Which is now showing up as statistical differences in health between early and late boomers.
https://www.theguardian.com/society/2026/oct/07/sugar-rations-health-blood-pressure-ageing

Early boomers made it to 53 on rationing. Generation Jones, born 54-64 were actively encouraged to eat sweet things.

What's the difference between Man City and Reform UK?

One takes dodgy money from dodgy people and doesn't properly declare it in it's finances. And the other is a football club.
