I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Keir Starmer doesn't want you
to share this message from Kneecap
because he regards them as terrorists
not the Israeli Zionists mass murdering
tens of thousands of innocent civilians
via starvation, snipers and bombs
dropped from planes using British-made parts
A message from Kneecap:

“Kneecap is not the story, Genocide in Gaza is… Your voice is more important than at any time before…. silence is death.”

Please listen, please watch, don’t look away.

Hats off again to @thescotlandchannel.bsky.social for another informative video, this time on the Union Jackery that's long infested food labelling in Scotland - and why that matters.
This is the sort of film we should all be sharing with undecided friends and family!

FLAGS ON OUR FOOD AND WHY IT MATTERS
The story of flags on our food, in particular, the proliferation of Union Jacks on our grocery packaging and why it matters.

The average billionaire in the UK gets £300m a year in tax avoidance benefits.

The top companies Shell, BP, Amazon... are getting up to £5bn each.

If we are cutting benefits, cut them for billionaires and trillion dollar companies who definately don't need them.

Gates is right on this: no amount of private philanthropy can replace what public funding must do. Life-saving healthcare shouldn’t hang on the moods of tech bros. Let’s stop treating billionaires like saviours.

Britain's universities were pushed - forced, really - to make themselves completely dependent on international students. Now they are about to have the rug finally pulled from under them. There is not a single word British central government could say that I would ever trust again.
The flood of university redundancies is now running too quickly for me to keep track, but this week I've noticed the following among the ragged and saddening retreat:
*Aberdeen
*Exeter
*Falmouth
*Newcastle
*Plymouth
*Trinity St Davids

I’m glad to see this article but it’s after 24 hours of unchallenged corporate guff dominating the news cycle. Tony Blair is a tech lobbyist who is literally writing naive, venal & dangerous policy for Starmer’s government. Call it out.
