Remember, everything Netanyahu does is to keep himself out of prison. For the sake of one crook's liberty, tens of thousands of people have been murdered, and now a possible full-scale war has been provoked. Israel must rise up and unseat him.

"Most of the areas overtaken by Molinia [...] would favour temperate rainforest: a vanishingly rare, rich + complex habitat."

This single species of grass now artificially dominates probably many 1,000s of km2 in Ireland, creating vast deadzones.

Yet here too, it's scarcely mentioned.

We are gravely concerned about Stirling Council's proposed budget cuts

These include cuts to the music service of around £250k, and the reduction of 5 full time equivalent teachers

This will have a resounding impact on both jobs and the children who use the service

OK - 'tis 1st Jan. The right and proper time to post a best albums of 2024 list.

So with apols to those who are fed up with them, here is mine (in alphabetical order as ranking would just be too difficult).

1 Beabadoobee - This is how tomorrow moves
2John Bramwell - Leave alone the empty spaces

Amazing weekend kicking off Edinburgh Festival Chorus rehearsals for next August.

Would love to share what we have in store, but sadly that remains embargoed until the programme launch in April!
