Currently listening to WHISPERS UNDERGROUND by Ben Aaronovitch #audiobook #aaronovitch #fantasy #scyfy #novel #book

The Briefing Room - Why is there a row about disability benefits? - BBC Sounds David Aaronovitch and guests discuss why the benefits bill for disability has ballooned.

Listen to The Briefing Room. David #Aaronovitch investigates the really important question. Why has the rise in people claiming disability benefits been so much higher in UK than elsewhere? This is much more interesting than journos harping on about "humiliation".

📚💙 #ReadThisNotThat
Try Ben Aaronovitch’s Rivers of London series, beginning with *Midnight Riot.* (to replace #NeilGaiman #Neverwhere)

Fun, thoughtful, engaging, set in a London where magic still exists. Sort of a police non-procedural. Enjoying whole series!

When #Pterry died, I started looking for his non-fiction (there are several, highly recommended) and non-discworld books, to fill the gap.
I do read other authors as well ( #Gaiman, #King, #LeGuin, #Aaronovitch and more), but the #Discworld books are a special joy to come back to, again and again.

Is the BBC biased over Gaza? The report I read so you didn't have to

Is the BBC biased over Gaza?
David #Aaronovitch has read the
[heavily biased] Asserson Report into alleged BBC anti-Israeli bias 'so that you didn't have to'.
