this is a masterclass response to Mahmood's latest hate mongering from Zack.

The economic cost of Brexit has just been laid bare – and it’s devastating A decade on, the economic cost of Brexit has just been laid bare – and it’s devastating. Here's what the figures say.

Because of Brexit, the UK GDP is 6–8% lower than it would have been, business investment is 18% lower than in comparable economies, and both employment and productivity are around 4% lower. Can’t wait to see in a decade how Trump has damaged the US economically.

A new all-electric double-decker Climate Stripes bus has started taking passengers around Reading today.

The bus shows the warming stripes for Reading back to the 1860s and will hopefully help start climate conversations amongst passengers.

Whole interview is remarkable. The AI chat around 17-18 mins is spot on. Ian's gag about being glued to your phone at 19 mins is superb. But the last 4-5 minutes with a highly political soliloquy (written by Shakespeare) from Thomas Moore is utterly stunning.

I feel this way about the use of X as the main communications route for lots of companies.

‘If I think about what this means, I want to cry’: what happens when a city loses its university? When Essex University’s Southend campus opened, it was a message of hope for a ‘left behind’ UK seaside town. Its closure will be felt far beyond its 800 students, some of whom will not get their degr...

If I think about what this means, I want to cry’: what happens when a city like Southend loses its university?

Loss of education, reskilling, social mobility, exports, contribution to local economy and hope.

40-45% of universities in crisis, caused by govt policies.

YouTube video by PBS NewsHour WATCH: Minneapolis resident and U.S. citizen Aliya Rahman describes being detained by ICE

We can do this. A Green MP in Greater Manchester would be a massive step forward.

Secretary Noem has forfeited her right to lead. I’m calling on her to resign.

Gregory Bovino must also be fired.

No one, not an ICE agent, not a federal officer, not a president, is above the law.

“The gender critical voices do not speak for me, and I wanted a platform to make that clear for me and for others.” Woman in sunglasses #WhyWeSigned NION Women logo

Too often, a loud minority claims to speak for women. But women are diverse - and most of us reject the idea that feminism means exclusion.

This campaign gives women a platform to show that we will not be misrepresented.

US court allows ICE to arrest and pepper-spray peaceful protestors in Minnesota

Appeals Court Stays Restrictions on Federal Tactics in Minnesota The Eighth Circuit granted the Trump administration’s request to block, at least for now, a lower court’s injunction limiting how federal agents interact with protesters in the state.

One court decision, two different headlines.

Guardian on the left, NY Times on the right. Which one more directly conveys information and the stakes to the reader?

Let me just say, having to ask my pregnant patients who are having sudden bleeding if they’ve been at all exposed to chemical irritants/tear gas is not something I ever pictured having to do when going to nursing school.
