This is untrue on most major issues (though the media eıite don't know this). It is untrue on immigration in particular. Untrue on climate, on Trump, on human rights, on inciting racism. And much else

Miles Davis's landmark album, "Kind of Blue," was released on August 17, 1959. It is the best-selling jazz recording of all time.

💯% agree. But I'm not sure if silence would be more powerful. Especially given how much we've seen history repeating since 1945.

🧵(1/2) IC 63, also known as the Ghost of Cassiopeia, is a reflection and emission nebula located in the constellation Cassiopeia, about 550 light-years away. It's shaped by the radiation from the nearby bright star Gamma Cassiopeiae, a blue-white subgiant. The nebula's ethereal glow is due to the interaction of this radiation with the gas and dust clouds.

I've grown pretty tired of the constant focus of the Second World War. But given it's contested nature in certain parts of the world I'm not sure whether it would be worse if the focus was lost in popular history.

Some, not all. The price of an OU module was such that many could take it just for enjoyment and interest even if they had no desire of getting a qualification. The module cost was akin to a weekend in a premier inn and a couple of meals out. A module now is the price of a 2 week holiday abroad.

Many have also been priced out of taking courses with the Open University after they massively ramped up their tuition fees.

"supportively" is doing a lot of heavy lifting. That statement is as anodyne as possible. Humphrey himself could have crafted it.
