Board of Peace - Season 1
Just watched Scum for the first time in several years on BFI Player. Still, almost 50 years on, the most shocking disturbing film I’ve ever seen. Magnificently written & directed by the late Roy Minton and Alan Clarke. So many great young actors. “Up your fucking borstal” indeed!
I've dumped Netflix after 12 years of subscription as I barely watch it anymore. Here in the UK we have BFI Player from the British Film Institute showing the best films from around the world:

Again, the people who seem to be most damaged by social media aren't the kids - who are quite good at navigating it - but the middle-aged, who get caught up in extremism, fooled by misinformation, trapped by scammers, and addicted to porn.
Stop focussing on the kids. Start with the rest of us.

We could roll back monetization, invest in moderation tech, stop ignoring policy changes that erode action and allow already marginalised groups to be openly attacked, in favour of “community policing”. All of those things could be addressed and I’d wager sodding AI could be put to better use there

Denying under 16s the chance to develop critical thinking, build community, explore how they fit in with the culture choices they make all seems sad, when we could focus on regulating platforms, prosecuting content creators, fining tech vendors. Little incentive to improve if we make it adult only

Leicester Forest East M1 services when it was MotoRoss in the 80’s. Used to go there after the pub with mates every Friday night and pretend we were acting out the scene on M62 from The Black Stuff. Always sausage, egg, chips & beans at midnight. It’s now Burger King & KFC. 😢
Tante Zoe's cajun restaurant in Dublin. Blackened chicken and cajun punch were divine. Brought all sortsa fussy eaters there and everyone loved it.

For a government so keen to accommodate "legitimate concerns" what about the legitimate concerns of West Midlands police when faced with the prospect of hundreds of racist thugs on the streets of Birmingham?
Their choice of causes to champion certainly is, let’s say, eccentric
I repeat myself, and maybe it's a poverty of imagination on my part, but I simply can't envisage any circumstances where a UK Government would advocate so strongly and passionately on behalf of supporters of a UK football team.
