Here's a #HigherEducationPostcard of @stcatharines.bsky.social @cam.ac.uk Catz is another example of spelling differences within Oxbridge: Cambridge's is with an A, Oxford's is with an E If you like this image, I’d really appreciate a repost – it helps to spread the word!

An old monochrome picture postcard showing a photograph of the quadrangle at St Catharine's College, Cambridge. The card shows the name of the college, spelt incorrectly

Here's a #HigherEducationPostcard of what became Cardiff University - this was the old old royal infirmary, turned into the University College of South Wales and Monmouthshire If you like this image, I’d really appreciate a repost - remember, BlueSky has #NoAlgorithm

An old colour picture postcard showing three story hospital buildings, with a horse and cart outside. Printed at the top of the card is University College, Cardiff, but this is the wrong name

BBC’s coverage of Reform’s welfare plans is frankly bizarre. Headlines in Ten, leading on some radio networks. Reform are not even the official opposition and the plans have less credibility than Count Binface. Will BBC News do the same for Lib Dem and Greens policy two years out from an election?

Tonight's game was a cunning ploy to deliver a game so boring, won by a country Trump hates, to ensure we do have to do another over commercialised politicised World Cup in the USA in my lifetime. IOC take note if you want to protect your integrity.

The truth about #engvarg. That’s why he brought the defenders on, from half time England were being battered. At the start of the WC a top 4 finish would have been considered a good result.

Gave evidence to the CMS Select Committee about the BBC. I took the opportunity to raise the issues of impartiality around the Reform party TV network, aka GB News, which is posioning the well for news values in the UK. We don't want Fox News type polarisation here.

Just want to add: Being convicted of a crime in the U.S. wouldn’t justify sending someone to a foreign gulag to be tortured, and arguably violates separation of powers since the “sentence” they are legally bound to serve is one issued by a judge, not Stephen Miller (i.e. the factoid is irrelevant)

Tried to avoid this mire but have a question - How does this redaction work then? Here’s a letter from a case file (assume G Maxwell’s legal challenge) and then the version released by DoJ. Trump and Clinton’s names redacted, victims left un-redacted? #epsteinfiles @cnnnewsource.bsky.social

Mourning, today, for a victim of a political assassination.

A memorial on a black background with a photo of former Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman, who was targeted in a political assassination. The text reads, "In Memory of Melissa Hortman, Former Minnesota House Speaker, 1970-2025. Taken far too soon in a targeted attack. A voice for justice, clean energy, and equality. We honor her legacy, leadership, and courage. #RestInPower."

We look out for new books deal with social class, and our first, published this week, is Gary Younge's Pigeonholed: Creative Freedom as an Act of Resistance.🧵 In this text of his inaugural Faber lecture, Younge talks about the “burden of representation”. That’s the pressure on people...
