My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

A new idea for UK higher education
All universities have to organise faculties based on the Trivial Pursuit categories:
Art and Literature
Entertainment
History
Science and Nature
Geography
Sport
And branding has to follow the colour of the pieces of pie

Many witnesses to overt racism at times. For balance, in fairness, at other times witnessed not displaying racism. So there"s two sides. Racist, but hides it some of the time. Or as half arsed and lazy at racism as at public service.

So one of my parents was American. I guess I am not banned but in fairness USA is rapidly third worlding and nearly half of their young women want somewhere more developed to live. Would their migration to UK be in our interests? For me a firm YES

true its awful
EDs/heroin chic is back in fashion globally, as an elder millennial that lived through this all before take care of yourselves out there. Maybe enjoy music without the visuals or just start clicking away from all scary-thin pics the algo is serving up to everyone.
Take care of yourselves 🤍

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

A year ago today, Ruben Amorim took charge of his first Man United game.
He's just seen them lose at home to an Everton side who played with 10 players for more than 75 minutes 👿
