A simple, haunting poetry in this information from a medical musuem website.

Our Bureau Local editor, Gareth, connects this year’s protests against asylum seekers to those he saw in his hometown 20 years ago

Want a great way to replace "narcissist" in your vocabulary?

Egotist. Egocentric, selfish, self-absorbed, etc.

Can someone with a personality disorder BE problematic? Sure, but they'd be a problem without a diagnosis too, and innocent folk who share a diag don't deserve to be thrown under the bus.

Just today I asked a male (!!!!!!) shop assistant in Boots about maternity pads. This level of proposed segregation by sex is truly Victorian in its morality and moral panic.

Freelance journalists given rare chance to 'right wrongs' of unfair payment practices Govt consultation provides opportunity for freelance journalists to improve their pay terms. The NUJ's Tim Dawson explains.

Freelance journalists must be paid promptly and fairly for their work.

The UK government's consultation on poor payment practices offers an opportunity to right the wrongs of our industry.

I think it’s worth noting this piece generated the most unsubscribes I’ve seen in a while, and the newsletter version had the lowest open rate in many months. These horrors persist in part because too many people go to great pains to avoid them.

UK admits foreign aid cuts could see deaths rise – with Africa hit hardest The government’s own impact assessment warns that cuts to projects will likely increase death and disease

We've known for months that the UK is going to dramatically cut aid spending. Now we know a bit more about where some of the cuts will fall - at least for next year. And they are falling, as feared, heavily on women and girls www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

The Onion Buys Alex Jones’s Infowars Out of Bankruptcy The satirical news site planned to turn Infowars into a parody of itself, mocking β€œweird internet personalities” who peddle conspiracy theories and health supplements.

Hi everyone.

The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.

We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.

We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.

I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.
