Sweden has changed its alcohol laws, meaning you can now buy direct from vineyards, which are quickly planting vines as the temperature warms up. I went on a vineyard tour two weeks ago for a first look for @thetimes.com www.thetimes.com/travel/desti...

On January 4 I went to Colwyn Bay to meet Alan Bates, the man who helped bring justice to victims of the Post Office scandal. So it was lovely to speak to him last week about the year that changed his life. @thetimes.com

My year by Alan Bates: marriage, boating with Branson but still no payout
This time last year the Post Office campaigner was a relative unknown. Then an ITV drama changed everything: how have he and his wife coped?

NEW: Why do we always think crime is rising, even when it isn’t?
This week I looked at one of the big data mysteries. Britain is 2/3 less violent than the 1990s; thefts were higher pre-lockdown
Why, then, doesn’t it feel like it?

As my first post on Bluesky I thought I'd share my interview with the formidable 68-year-old Laila Soueif, who has been on hunger strike for 57 days. She will not eat until her son is free @thetimes.com www.thetimes.com/article/71d8...
56 days of hunger strike. I’ll keep going until my son is free
Laila Soueif’s son, the British-Egyptian activist Alaa, was meant to be released from a Cairo prison two months ago. She demands foreign secretary David Lammy does more to get him out
