Terrible news from the University of Kent: "we have taken the decision to phase out Anthropology, Art History, Health & Social Care, Journalism, Music & Audio Technology, and Philosophy/Religious Studies" kent.ac.uk/news/statements/3…

Sad to see "on the spectrum" (i.e. autism) being used as a lazy insult for anyone allegedly lacking empathy
Apart from being disrespectful, it's a myth (see article in following post..)
Lockdown was the brainchild of a bunch of men on the spectrum.
They lacked the emotional intelligence to feel or anticipate the appalling consequences of criminalising human contact.
They still have the gall to claim it was the right plan.

Rishi Sunak's main election strategist Isaac Levido is also a very highly paid lobbyist for Palantir, the dodgy US firm owned by a far-right billionaire that"s just been given a huge NHS data contract.
Small world, isn't it?

"In his statement Boris Johnson says [Eat Out to Help Out] 'was properly discussed with Chris [Whitty] and Patrick [Vallance]. Do you agree with that?"
Whitty: "There was no consultation... Neither Patrick nor I can recall it and we would have done"

Passengers on China's metros now can travel by scanning their face or hand - powered by WeChat, China's digital wallet.
It's convenient. The problem is
Once you are blacklisted by the Social Credit System, you can no longer use WeChat, which means you can't travel, buy food...

Important message from a journalist who, sadly, cannot speak out because of his contract of employment.

Not the first to say this and I won't be the last, but the Government is going to have to explain why if Northern Ireland's position is so good it would be so bad for the rest of us

The PartyGate photos of Boris Johnson started LAST November.
Tories refused to fire him for 7 months.
Now they're refusing a general election.
We haven't had functional leadership FOR A YEAR because Tories care more about clinging to power than the poverty crisis we're facing.

BRIXTON/LONDON 📣
I found this picture by Jebb Avenue/Brixton Prison bus stop. Must've slipped out of a wallet. It looks very precious and I imagine whoever lost it on their travels will be devastated.
Can we do that thing? Retweet, share, reunite owner and photograph?

A man wanting to jump off a bridge in London was talked down by strangers who held him for an hour until help arrived. Look at that grip. Look at the care, compassion, selflessness, and determination shown by strangers to a hurting human being.
We need more of this in the world.

After the right turn, the U-turn. But Kwasi Kwarteng's panicked climbdown still leaves £43bn in tax cuts.
Growth won’t pay for them so spending cuts worse than austerity will - an amount equivalent to closing every English school.
