To mark today’s 25th anniversary of 9/11 I’m listening to The Rising by Bruce Springsteen. What a sensitive and inspiring artistic response to a great tragedy. Almost nothing left unsaid.
…I woke up this morning to an empty sky…

What a national disgrace is @HeathrowAirport No available gate when you land, at the gate no one to operate the air bridge. 40 mins and waiting for bags. Landed 90 mins ago and still in baggage reclaim. Appalling.

Did Liz Truss inherit that top from Margaret Thatcher? #ConservativeLeadershipContest

Interesting to learn that - in the Queen’s absence - two of four ‘counsellors of state’ are required for the State Opening of Parliament. The four being Prince’s Charles, William…..Andrew and Harry. A very thin subs bench apple.news/AqZUf09u7Qy2e1ya9…
I remember the benches in our local parks being taped up so we could not sit down and people who were sitting on the grass being moved on by community support officers, when we would have all “wanted to make the most of the lovely weather”
Still gobsmacked that the insane ‘no alcohol without also purchasing a substantial meal’ nonsense came from the ‘suitcase full of booze’ people.
I really rate Sam Billings as a cricketer. It’s a shame England have not found a way of properly utilising his talents in any form of the game. I know in white ball there’s been strong competition, but still…

Dominic Cummings comment on why he gave a £500k+ contract to his friends at Public First.
"Very few companies in this field (qualitative market research) are competent, almost none are very competent, honest and reliable.”Disgraceful.

Watching the coverage of exam results u turn with utter despair. A bad algorithm is a bad algorithm - sure. But let’s not give up on the capacity of algorithms, data, science and evidence to do good and improve the lives of disadvantaged people.

@BBCr4today is central to the Cummings story. Listeners would like to re-hear the contribution made by @MaryWakefield to your programme on 25th April. Lots of lockdown detail (eg DC’s limbs out of control, caring hubby/dad). No mention of 260 mile drive up the A1. Today duped?
