This is very good - and should not be surprising, but given how the media and politicians talk it is. Kids are better at navigating their online experiences than adults give them credit for.

Old Soviet joke for today:
A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves.
After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?”
“I’m looking for the obituaries.”
“The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.”
“Not the one I’m looking for.”

This is insanity. In a queue of 17,000+ people to book a UK driving test at 6:20am! For a test in November. Which will have disappeared by the time I reach the front. Just like booking Glastonbury tickets.

Trump could have pushed for an end to the war in Ukraine without becoming actively hostile to Ukraine. Instead, he has imbibed Putin’s lies. Have written about the emergence of a new US/Russia axis, where it comes from and the staggering implications for Europe.

This is a must listen. Powerful, moving, emotional and puts the record straight.
NEW: Andrew Norfolk broke the grooming gang story, 15 years ago. His exclusive interview on today’s News Agents
is deeply powerful, not least for his anger about those political figures now exploiting it and the victims for their own purposes.

The EU is about to launch a single European booking system for train tickets.
This means that you will be able to travel to multiple destinations in multiple countries on just one ticket with your full travel schedule clearly mapped out. 👍👍👍

‘It wasn’t sexual in any way!’ 50 years of streaking – by the people who dared to bare all
In 1974, it became a craze, and has been happening ever since. While some streakers do it for a cause and others for a laugh, all agree the adrenaline rush is unbeatable. So do they have any regrets?
