BBC Still Want To Tax Internet: inews.co.uk/news/bbc-licence… If, as claimed, TCT and sport are so popular, then people will still pay for it (!), so why force the rest of to do so? And decisions still based on the false assumption we all watch live TV when we don't. LLF for 20+ years.

How BBC licence fee could be scrapped for a new £11 monthly internet charge

Popular shows like Celebrity Traitors could go behind a paywall if the BBC licence fee isn't replaced by a 'universal' levy

#Merton #Enshittification #Grey #Sundial #AnytimeFitness #Argos Another example of colour being removed from public spaces. I know it was a bit bland, and was only put up in 1996 (at least the sundial was) but having changed from Argos to yet another gym, the grey just spreads.

#Merton #Enshittification #Grey #Terrace Another example of a standard small terraced house being replaced by a monotone block completely devoid of character (unless of course you love very dark grey).

Can you spot everything wrong with this cartoon from the latest @PrivateEyeNews? I'll start: There are no engines on the invading dinghies. Is there something a little 'off' about the occupants? I'll let you decide.

#TrustHouse #TrustHouseHotel #1960s #Holidays #Hotel Does anyone else remember these? Excellent VFM, packed picnics for long walks and vouchers if you visited another hotel for lunch. The Dolphin & Anchor in Chichester, next to the cathedral, was a favourite destination of ours.

#London #Chimney #Brickwork A nice pair of decorated chimney-stacks: Marylebone & Merton.

#Merton #Enshittification #Grey #Terrace From an unremarkable end-of-terrace house in a street that's actually the worst of its parallel neighbours, someone decided to make it even drabber. Grey... again! Why is it _always_ grey?

#2001 #SpaceOdyssey #Prismatic #3DPostcard #3D #Postcard Does anyone else remember these, let alone still have them? Compared to modern versions they aren't very good quality, especially the printing, and the plastic was fairly soft, but these were protected in a padded envelope.

#DeathPenalty @RestoreBritain @Con_Tomlinson Despite wanting the Welsh Choirboy and other such animals put down, I can never fully support the return of the Death Penalty because: dailymail.com/news/article-1… It's in the US, but there are still far too many cases like this here too.

#London #History #Crane #Trade In side- and main-roads alike, there is still plenty of evidence showing how much trade was based on sometimes relatively small premises rather than large warehouses beside the river. Park St & Southwark St.

#London #Tiles #DavidGreig Usually obscured behind the chairs and tables of a cafeteria in Shepherd's Bush Road whose name changes every year or so, these remnants preserve the name of David Greig from when they were a common name in various High Streets and markets.

#London #Halifax So, the name is being phase out and replaced with that of the current owners, who deserve no mention or advertising from me. At least there will be reminders of their existence if you know where to look. 55, Strand.

Will this take into account their blatant anti-white and anti-WWC girl bias? No, of course it won't, it's just another way to crowbar in 'diverse' people who could never get in on merit and will let their own clans or colours go free. telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/07…

Prosecutors must ‘consider unconscious bias’ before charging minorities

Head of CPS says his staff felt ‘affronted’ at suggestion of prejudice but says new code clause is needed

#London #Royalty #CoatOfArms #Victoria Discovered by accident during one of my wanderings, this is part of a listed building in Lillie Road. It's unlikely they had a royal visitor, so perhaps by some kind of special manufacturer's appointment? historicengland.org.uk/listi…

#London #Borough #Boundary Sometimes the boundaries were marked with metal plates in the wall, other times in adjacent pieces of stone. Charterhouse Street, and Hansard Mews.

#London #Tiles A short run of local shops have generally plains doors, but there are lovely decorations either side of the entrances, and on the borders between shops.

#London #Window It's easy to overlook such things when passing along one of central London's busiest streets, but walking slowly and ignoring the traffic noise reveals these lovely details in Cromwell Road.
