An excellent&long overdue essay on British (lack of) resilience, explaining just how dependent the UK is on circumstances it cannot guarantee itself, and why protecting your security means a lot more than to just spend more money on arms (although that is necessary, too). www.ft.com/content/ba80...

Anne McElvoy [for it is she]: "well of course by not having an opinion on Ed Sheeran the moral maze is effectively having an opinion on ed sheeran and i do not pay my licence fee for etc" *this is a weak parody and not an actual opinion of Anne McElvoy. Or maybe who knows anymore

This week's Moral Maze on Radio 4 is about whether Ed Sheeran is obliged to have a public opinion. Far be it from me, but i feel like if you can cover it in an SNL cold open, it's not a maze.
