Because he doesn't believe Palestinian lives are equal to Israeli lives. Because he's totally lost his humanity in his bubble where he sees peoples lives as bargaining chips. And because the man is devoid of all principles and compassion. Next question.

Starmer asked to explain why recognition of Palestinian statehood is conditional.

This. I've listened in real time to BBC Radio - in particular Radio 4 - devolving into a reactionary mouthpiece. The news segments are principally concerned with uncritically repeating racist, far-right narratives about immigrants. Two Minutes Hate, every hour on the hour.

A map of countries that recognise the State of Palestine. You can now add France… but apparently not the UK, Germany, Canada of Australia. Shameful.

I presume there is this tiny army of Very Angry Radicalised People sweeping the web and pouncing into the comment section of any article which is remotely sympathetic to trans people. So you quickly learn to write on the subject and then never, ever look at the comments.

Did anyone even calculate it? But even then you need to be absolutely sure of your inputs, and it looks like the information the jury was presented with was incomplete. That would then produce an invalid p-value. Not that a jury would understand it anyway.

Except that the hospital was failing anyway, and had had a poor record in recent years regardless of Letby. The perfect conditions for finding a scapegoat. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

All three worked at the Countess of Chester Hospital when the nurse killed babies at its neonatal unit.

"The only common denominator through all the unexpected collapses was Lucy Letby", which is true from the evidence that was presented. However it's now known that there were six further cases where Letby was not present. It feels disingenuous then to say that statistics didn't play a part.

Juries are notoriously bad at interpreting statistics, especially when the statistics with which they are presented are selective (see article) and they were not told this. And juries themselves are amateurs by definition. theconversation.com/experts-have...

Experts have challenged the medical case against Lucy Letby. What about the statistical evidence?

A mathematician explains the fallacies that may have played a part in Letby’s conviction.

Is it? It seems that a panel of international experts in neonatology and paediatrics, suggesting potential flaws in the original trial and evidence presented, disagree with you. But you know best, I'm sure.

This would all easily be solved if only Britain would join Schengen (along with other obligations that would necessarily go with it of course). Problem solved. Oh I'm such a genius. Why am I not PM?

This is a really good idea. I was lucky to go to a first school that had a swimming pool, and they made sure everyone in the school could swim and was happy in the water before going on to the next school. My later schools really didn't do much for swimming. @plaidcymru.bsky.social

It’s important to protect children online, but tech firms and legislators must make sure that they don’t lock children out of material they have a right to access – and that the line between “appropriate” and “inappropriate” isn’t discriminatory.
