Palestine Action saga shows dystopian doublethink is now UK Government policy
Doublethink is no longer the preserve of dystopian fiction, it is UK Government policy ...
A simple summary of the Palestine Action latest - it's illegal to show support for Palestine Action ... because of the unlawful decision to label it a terror group ...

Too much of anything usually isn't a good thing is it? We have been taught for centuries to live in moderation. I often think there should be a limit on how much wealth anyone should be able to acquire or earn in a job.Anything extra you make should go back into a social fund to give others a chance

Have u guys done any episodes on ancient Egyptian dynasties? I'm fascinated by the life & times of Akhenaton, father of Tutankhamen. Akhenaton's attempt to introduce monotheism at that time is so interesting and has some real overlaps with prophethood. Would be great to hear your views of his time.

Anas Sarwar makes his biggest political gamble - but can it pay off?
The call for Sir Keir Starmer to resign is a defining moment in Sarwar's leadership of Scottish Labour.
Can't help feeling a wee bit sorry for Anas. His dream of becoming FM is looking unlikely. Maybe it's too little too late..
