The UK has supplied Israel with F-35 components—evidence suggests they’ve been used in violations of international law. I asked the Foreign Sec if he’d explicitly asked the Israeli govt whether UK arms were used in recent airstrikes that broke the ceasefire and caused immense civilian suffering.

I was very lucky to do my masters in community music at Edinburgh when Trevarthen was still there & guest lectured our course & then the book release was same time. Lifetime inspiration.

Great read. Drawing from the brilliant Trevarthen & Malloch ‘Communicative musicality’ which has been at the heart of my own music making practice with students with complex needs for 15 years since their book came out!
