So channelling Tony Benn, yet again, but for real: "There is no final victory, as there is no final defeat. There is just the same battle. To be fought, over and over again. So toughen up, bloody toughen up."
If anyone wants access to some Kent school grounds without vetting, the 502 in Kennington will drop you off inside Towers School gates at pick up time (good luck getting anywhere else on that bus though, it moves at a snail's pace!)

After the death of Jason Arday, Will Self asks what happens when newspapers, platforms, editors and audiences become components in a machine nobody admits to controlling.
The public interest is not the same thing as the public being interested.

So the university investigation in Arday’s 500 word thesis proved the unaccredited citations come from the literature review - from a source he cited 12 times.
That’s not plagiarism - passing off someone else’s work as your own. Unlike everyone else here crying ‘plagiarism’

I don't know if it's even possible to codify this in terms of media regs, but at some point journalists have to ask ourselves whether it's morally justifiable to carry on driving a bulldozer through somebody's life.

Jason Arday has been found dead.
The obsessive media focus on this one man - as if it was one of the biggest scandals in history - was disproportionate beyond belief.
Push notifications, top headlines, constant investigations.
And now he is dead.
I have heard today's Wordle word before but it's pretty archaic and also colloquial. Quite a stretch and likely to annoy many. (I got it in 3 but it was a boring 15 minute think)

Talk about poetic justice.
@Martin_Abrams is a Jewish councillor who was suspended by Labour - because he opposed Israel’s genocide.
He defected to the Greens - and now he’s leader of Lambeth council.
The Labour briefcase set will be raging. Good!!

Everyone has focused on his headline take but the radically enlightened bit is when he compares Hamas and October 7th to slave rebellions and raids against colonists by indigenous Americans. Different level

May the light that inspired the Muslim Australian Ahmed al Ahmed to risk his own life to save Jewish lives today spread throughout and illuminate the world. Chag Sameah. Happy Hanukkah. #SafetyThroughSolidarity
