It's me, a Telegraph columnist, taking a break screaming bloody murder about fairness in the women's sports I wouldn't be caught dead watching to wax lyrical about academic integrity in sociology, a field I consider to be fake, at institutions I consider to be communist indoctrination centers.

Typically great reporting here from @lrb.co.uk and a typically maddening tale. Glasgow’s high heid yins love nothing more than to sell the city as radical, different and interesting, whilst simultaneously throwing the people and spaces that make it so to the wind.

It's not actually a mystery is it? It's a project that despises curiosity, difference, intellectual inquiry, humanity, complexity, difficulty, compassion, soul - and exalts crude and charmless displays of wealth and power. It is tacky, hateful, boorish and stupid - of course it makes shit art lol

Seeing a bunch of normal ass midwestern moms and dads marching in -20 degrees knowing they might be tear gassed or worse really drives home what a cowardly lot of people the pundit class is

Few people write about popular culture as well as Chal Ravens. This is a tough read, but it is journalism of the highest quality.

Perhaps, one day, schoolkids will study this squalid little chapter in British terror-panic history. When they do, I hope these two headlines from today are printed side by side, with clear annotation of which individual faced more outrage and condemnation.
Headline: BBC under pressure to pull Sally Rooney dramas over vow to fund Palestine Action Headline: Tory minister Robert Jenrick pictured with former Nazi terror chief at far right protest.

@finalwordcricket.bsky.social Geoff - not much a of a social media poster but your recent Guardian pieces have been a joy to read. The pod is also great - props as ever to you and AC. Keep it up, fellas.

If you're going insist that certain groups are going to have to accept a "reduction in their rights" then you're going to have accept the reaction you get to that may not necessarily come in the form of polite letter writing and debate.

Another excellent piece. The generosity, cynicism, and greed of modern Britain perfectly encapsulated.
