I just read that Lee Ryan off of Blue has seven children. Being of an anxious disposition, this worries me.

Are we still allowed to eat food? Since the rise of GLP-1s feels like a weakness that is widely frowned upon.

I want to share this clip because through her articulation and logic and openness and ability to balance lived experience and evidence, this woman gives a masterclass in standing up to far-right fear-peddling. I hope the cost is not too much to bear. The best of us.

I despair at these responses to far right mobs descending on hotels. A few years ago when the far right were trialling this model they came to my community and scared the hell out of women and children in a hotel who had been air lifted from Afghanistan via operation Pitting. The thugs had signs..

The reason *everyone* should care about this - whatever their politics - is that nobody is safe from having an uncontrolled mob descending on the hotel they are staying at. And that's what is becoming permissible by the lack of a robust response.

When Lauren an anti trafficking campaigner enters the public debate and expresses an expert view this man violently says ‘because you won't shut up your body is available for my imagined punishment’. gendered abuse is the price many women pay when they enter public debate. They do it because heroes.

The fallout from the collapse of this glacier - a torrent of mud surging down the valley - killed hundreds of people. Gone, in a flash. Those people were wiped out by anthropogenic climate change. Our governments are simply not responding quickly enough to this disaster which is already upon us.

So striking how weapons and defence spending is still framed in hero terms unlike net zero. Mr Webb on Today programme just now ‘is the public aware of the sacrifices it will have to make’ etc. spending still up for debate, but a preferential debate where the ‘British made’ angle plays.

Oh my mistake, I thought it was a vigil for Professor Jason Arday sanctioned by his grieving family where Jermaine Jackman who once won the voice sang Coldplay’s fix you (Jason’s mum’s favourite song). Also there were 30k.

If you were surprised to see the guardian invoked as one of the media institutions that ran multiple pieces dragging professor Arday, I’m afraid you haven’t been paying attention. theweathermakers.substack.com/p/jason-arda...

Jason Arday RIP makes me remember the other side of the media machine

Twenty years on TV doesn't come without scars, but ultimately makes me feel lucky. My other anniversary with legacy media is harder to celebrate. The death of Jason Arday brings it into sharp focus.

Shhh don’t tell anybody, but there are a number of notorious fantasists working in the newspaper industry. Their behind the scenes shenanigans are legendary. But they are good blokes and hand in ‘entertaining’ copy on time so nobody ever mentions it to them.

There’s a great tradition in media orgs by executive editor function - the ‘I was on holiday for that one’ defence. I would imagine a lot of them are on holiday for ‘this one’.

Recollections already vary over the threat to #Farage (which caused him to miss out on the Clacton count). Sometimes a threat has come via the police, but confusingly the police said there wasn’t one. Richard Tice is clear that absolutely NOBODY should be questioning any of this and it could be….

Farage will now over-claim on his raw numbers, but the reality is that he’s scraped by on cult-fumes. The major parties denied him an establishment fight, turnout plummeted, and a literal bin took over 26% of the active vote. All hail Binface. 🪐🗑️ #clactonbyelection

Sort of worth waking up early to witness this incredibly naked psychological manipulation and ego. Like an eclipse, it's rare to see. #Farage using the police as a shield to dodge his own count is pure cult leader victimhood /monstrous ego #ClactonByElection
