There's something quite endearing about the way German food doesn't even try to look appealing.

In guter Zusammenarbeit untersagt das @BMVI ab Mitternacht alle Passagierflüge aus Großbritannien nach Deutschland. Morgen planen wir, mit einer Verordnung der Bundesregierung den gesamten Reiseverkehr mit GB & Südafrika angesichts der Meldungen zu mutierten Viren einzuschränken.

German is a wonderfully precise language. This, from The Times: ‘’Mrs Merkel has dismissed what she called Öffnungsdiskussionsorgien, loosely meaning “orgies of debate about opening things up”.

Because what we do is food—using food as a lens to see the world—& because that’s still (still!) seen as somehow feminine & a bit trivial, our journalism & analysis is overlooked. But broadcast, #podcast #download figures are good. So, thanks! @BBCRadio4 @BBCFoodProg

I've said it before, but R4 Food Programme is the best political analysis programme in British media. Part of the reason is that its under the radar from political party interference. But its mainly because of their excellent journalists - far better than on any other progs
