I’m so sorry. They don’t have the moral right, it isn’t their university. Fight them for it.

That is really shit!

Words fail me.

Brilliant to see local Green Parties like Reading go from strength to strength!

Greens are already the 2nd largest party on Reading Borough Council, and in less than 3 weeks I'm looking forward to celebrating a record breaking number of @greenparty.org.uk councillors here and across the UK 💚

Oh my!

I think he truly believes it’s the number one paperback in Britain. He should be a beacon for scammers who can then deceptive him of his Orban cash.

How cool is that?

Sad that I’m across the other side of the Atlantic. (For this reason, if not so much for others.)

Aww!

Couple jailed for viral race abuse park rant in Halifax Fyona and Michael Bairstow are sentenced to eight weeks in prison for targeting a health worker.

Good - it wasn't just a rant, one of them pulled a woman by her ponytail, and the other hit a bystander for intervening. In expressing pity for them, the woman they abused demonstrates far more compassion than they deserve, frankly: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

God forbid a man have hobbies

But, honestly, look at those guys. There is absolutely no merit in chasing a technopoly model, where lax competition policy produces overbearing billionaires who can't grow up and want to play armies, we but somehow UK tech policy can't seem to get enough of it.

I've always found the framing around men and women's dating choices re political "opponents" really telling. Men are supposedly more tolerant - but for the most part they're not being asked to date people who literally view them as second-class citizens undeserving of bank accounts and voting rights

Kind of important context to the BBC’s priorities on migration, in light of its decision to plaster its absurd investigations all over the place

Asking the forbidden question

Experts condemn 'appalling' BBC story that 'raises risk of far-right attacks' THE BBC has come under heavy fire after publishing a “misleading” report on asylum seekers which experts allege will put vulnerable people “at…

BBCs coverage isn't just misleading, it is inflammatory. It has predictably been latched onto by the far right and others, including this government, to call for even more restrictions on those seeking asylum. Along with others, I explain here how wrong it is 👇

Migrants are making false domestic abuse allegations to stay in the UK, BBC investigation finds In the third part of an undercover investigation, the BBC reveals how rules aimed at protecting abuse victims are being exploited.

So this is genuinely the extent of the BBC’s front-page “investigation”: they spoke to one alleged crook and recorded him boasting, one victim of apparently unrelated abuse, one non-immigration lawyer who “thinks” there’s a problem, and Jess Phillips. It’d be laughable if it weren’t so serious 7/

Call me a pedant but I really think if BBC is going to make this inflammatory stuff headline news for two days (and counting) they ought to have a bit more evidence than this, and since they don’t you have to wonder what the purpose is of trumpeting it all over the place 5/

Honestly for any halfway decent government maintaining buying power for public sector - and indeed most if not all sectors - should be a baseline.

Nit achieving that should be recognised as the shameful failure it is.

Just imagine, eh!

Imagine if it was normal for there to be an inflation "triple lock" on doctors', nurses' and teachers' wages. Imagine if we actually valued the work they do enough to sustain that. Nothing special, just a guarantee they wouldn't actually get worse-off year-on-year. How would that be?

For Keir Starmer to talk of national resilience and ignore nature is absurd | Letters Letters: Responding to an article by the PM, Caroline Lucas says he must be clearer about climate risks, Molly Scott Cato says we must reverse Brexit and Dr Victor Ajuwon applauds Labour’s directness....

Extraordinary that nowhere in an article on resilience did PM find space to include the growing threat posed to UK security by the dramatic decline in the health of nature around the world - especially since his own intelligence chiefs have recently spelt it out for him in no uncertain terms 👇
