Does Chris McManus count? Gave an impromptu extended tutorial to a cheeky undergrad from a uni 100 miles away. Absolutely fascinating charming enlightening and generous.

It’s a lot easier to write a list of WWII RAF senior officers who weren’t shits. Sholto Douglas anyone? Harris?

I’d like James Burke to be put in charge of the next gen civ tech tree. Can’t have steam trains till you’ve invented pressurisation for brewing. No ballistic missiles without the thermos flask! youtu.be/cCJh5D0FCZk?...

I think (hope) the photo is from a while back. It’s on a story from 2021 from the Thurrock Gazette about an MoD contract to remove the masts. Not sure anything came of that.

Masts on explosive filled shipwreck in Thames Estuary set to be removed

This is a genuinely intolerable reality…
Instead of some proportion from much of the British media class, we are treated to the tragicomic absurdity of a former British prime minister willing to admonish the national broadcaster and demand the resignation of its Director General, all in the name of defending Donald Trump's reputation for truth-telling. But it's worse than that- it is a textbook example of how populists win. We have the ridiculous carnival of Donald Trump and Boris Johnson, of all people, admonishing the BBC for its lack of integrity. And they can get away with it, because no-one expects anything from them and yet we expect everything from the people and places who actually give a damn.

Well quite. And Prescott himself is a long way from a neutral observer. His political alignment and history at employers such as Weber Shandwick rather underlines his position.
