It has just turned midnight on Kiritimati Island in the middle of the Pacific and Ada Lovelace Day has begun! The day of 13 October continues around the globe for a whole 50 hours, so you have plenty of time to mark the day! Which women in STEM are you going to celebrate?

A HMRC official was sacked because he was caught on camera saying he gives wrong information to black and brown people when they call for advice in a bid to sabotage them. He was a member of the far right group Patriotic Alternative. How many more?

Seems the difference between ‘protestors’ and ‘terrorists’ is that protestors wear balaclavas while terrorists hold placards.
