How the government captured the BBC
A right-wing cabal, largely unaccountable, is waging war on the principles that made our public broadcaster great. It must not succeed
Nearly two years ago, I wrote about the extraordinary influence of former Tory spin doctor Sir Robbie Gibb on the BBC. It's still a helpful backgrounder for what's going on now. New readers start here: www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/media/...

Haven’t seen much discussion of this on #spéirghorm today - flagging it in case it winds up going under the radar.

Ah, ok. It‘s where the best work is being done in some schools - play based curriculum, etc!

Indeed. I think it probably helps that @beckyfrancis.bsky.social has kids who have actually gone through the current GCSE nightmare so knows first hand as a parent what it’s like

European Movement signatories on a first draft of the ECHR. Credit: ECHR
75 years ago today, the European Convention of Human Rights, ECHR, was created. The UK played a key role in shaping it.
We should celebrate the ECHR & the vision of all who brought it to life.
We must resist regressive & cynical moves to rip us out of the convention!

England is now experiencing a significant Covid wave, after 10 months of relative quiet
The latest Covid situation in England and a look at where NHS services are as we head into winter
After a long pause, I've just done another England Covid & NHS update as we head into the autumn/winter season.
TLDR: we're in a significant Covid wave now, the NHS is stretched, get boosted if you're eligible.
