Books v. Rent.
By chance, I happened to pick up a copy of Orwellβs Books v.
Fully aware this should have had a more engaging image, but my womb is emotional, and thereβs time sensitivity. So, here you go.

Standing on the Shoulders of Tyrants.
A Britain so deindustrialised, we can't even manufacture our own consent.
The Filton 6 case shows, yet again, why we must protect our jury system. Thought Iβd reshare something I wrote about the banning of Palestine Action back in July to mark the occasion.

Everything Is Shit.
And itβs about to get worse.
"We know how this story ends: what should belong to all of us becomes a trough for the few. We pay up while the shit streams down. Thatcher sold off what worked, called it freedom, and left the rest to sink in the squalor."

Panic Is Not Protection.
How moral outrage distorts evidence, policy, and child safeguarding.
A careful look at how panic, evidence, and child-protection rhetoric intersect β prompted by a recent episode of The Rest Is Politics.

Panic Is Not Protection.
How moral outrage distorts evidence, policy, and child safeguarding.
Long-time listener and admirer of the show. I found the IJM interview troubling β particularly the treatment of prevalence estimates as settled fact. Iβve written a detailed response engaging with the evidence and policy implications:

Civil Religion and the Fear of Legitimacy.
What happens when a state cannot tell the truth about how it came into being β and builds its future on not needing to?
What if the U.S. Constitution functions not as a governing framework, but as a civil religion β a sacred text that substitutes myth for legitimacy?

A public utility, debt-free and functionalβa miracle by any standard, a fantasy in 1970s Britain. Thatcher sold it for a song. Weβve been wading through her legacy ever since.
