I’ve been working in my spare time on a way to save unfunded but promising medical research. It’s in the Guardian today. We need a funder though. www.theguardian.com/news/2025/ma...

Always find your logic and conclusions irrefutable and your reasoning elegant. However, here it’s impossible to apply Occam’s razor and then to agree with you. If not, then whom?

NEW: JD Vance describes UK & French troops in Ukraine as β€œ20,000 troops from some random country that hasn’t fought a war in 30 or 40 years”.

Spits in the face of UK & EU troops that died supporting the US in Iraq & Afghanistan.

So revealing. The Atlantic alliance & β€œspecial relationship” is dead.

Polish Cold War hero Walesa writes to Trump expressing 'horror' at Zelenskiy spat Lech Walesa, the former Polish president and Solidarity trade union leader who played a leading role in the fall of Communism, signed a letter to U.S. President Donald Trump expressing "horror" at his argument with Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelenskiy.

Lib Dem leader Ed Davey calls for new UK-EU customs union by 2030 to help boost growth & insulate UK from impacts of Trump presidency.

Labour ruled this out in manifesto & has no appetite to revisit as difficult politically, regardless of potential boost to economy.

Prof Alexis Jay, chair of public inquiry into child sexual abuse, says further national inquiry into grooming gangs isn’t needed & would delay action.

β€œThe time has passed for more inquiries, we’ve had enough… We’ve set out action required & people should just get on with it, nationally & locally”

Big Tech's Deadly Grip Alarmist though it may sound, there's an increasing risk that algorithm driven tech platforms pose an existential threat to public debate, order and democracy.

@arusbridger.bsky.social this might be of interest, given your comments on the online safety act on Today just now. more legislative action on social media will almost certainly be needed andrewpendleton.substack.com/p/big-techs-...
