Even IF it wasn't illegal, which undoubtedly it is, idea that compelled speech is in any way compatible with academic freedom is a nonsense
https://nitter.cz/QUBelfast
. Demanding prescribed language is an insult to spirit of open-minded intelllectual inquiry that universitities SHOULD embody.

Many, many hours later, just in door. Nightmare journey but nothing a twinkly Xmas tree amd home-comforts won't solve. Good luck to all others battling through Xmas train madness. Solidarity.

Yes, when politicians blame the blob it's lazy. But this story of Whitehall lawyers trying to scupper trans guidance shows how a power grab by politicised, activist layer of influential civil servants who think they know best, can distort democratic action

100s of us on slow train back to Euston from Watford, having set off North HOURS ago. Staff lovely BUT clueless. No idea when I'll get home for Christmas. Plans scuppered. Many worse off. Elderly passengers, Mums/Dads with small screaming kids.

I disagree with Professor Mearsheimer on many issues in this

interview, but his conversation with
https://nitter.cz/freddiesayers
is well worth a read and plenty of it made me think hard about the moral dilemmas of Israel's war in Gaza, unlikely outcome of two-state solution, civilian deaths etc

Awful, heart-breaking, stomach-churning tragedy. Important IDF own such errors with open, transparent admissions, and do so consistently whoever victims are. A key factor for any democracy is to be accountable.

Is Cameron's sustainable ceasefire call a new Gov policy? Big shift. Does Sunak agree? Yes too many civilians being killed. War is brutal/cruel. But ceasefire while Hamas keeps hostages &amp; pledges more Oct 7ths? Not peace, not sustainable; sounds like call for Israeli surrender

In ye olden days, older men using misleading, inaccurate, nasty abuse aimed at undermining successful women in politics/media, would be understood as expressing bitter, sexist sour grapes. In same ye olden days, this very man was employed to develop art of party propaganda. Wtf.

The best way to defend retaining the Elgin Marbles in the British Museum is not a scrap over legal ownership or indeed to be defensive in face of decolonisation arguments...

No secret santa for hard-core Steve Bray &amp; his Remainiac crew; secret snappers instead. Comments are as smug, snobby &amp; unpleasant as you'd expect. Apparently shopping in Poundland is far beneath these giants of our political scene. PS can I recommend £1 Xmas bags as great value

Important. And should be noted by all who try to write off concerns re social transitioning, gender ideology in schools etc, as whipping up culture wars. Estelle Morris is absolutely anything but a culture warrior. When she agrees with Kemi Bandenoch, shows beyond left/right
