Mamdani's victory today has really cheered me up. Not everything is terrible! It also gives me hope as a Green that it's not inconceivable that Zack Polanski could one day be leading my country 🤞

Is the UK addicted to “full independent inquiries”? Does it really take a years-long process costing millions to say it was a mistake to release Hadush Kebatu on Friday? Wouldn’t a faster internal process into what went wrong allow the government to *fix* it faster?

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

According to Home Office figures, disability hate crime is decreasing, but that isn't the experience of disabled people like Stephen. It's also worth mentioning that this year's figures don't include offenses recorded by the Metropolitan Police.
Disability hate crime: 'This is the worst I've experienced it'
Home Office statistics suggest disability related hate crime is falling, but Steven Lacey's lived experience paints a different picture.
