This may interest @ka81.bsky.social . Lexicon is the most challenging thing to find for those who experience #CSA in childhood. Attached is an email, one of many sent to the production company that made a BAFTA-winning documentary about institutional #CSA. Go well.

#Medomsley. Jake Richards, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State at the Ministry of Justice, has set out the Govt’s plans. Front and centre is the introduction of an alleged ‘duty to report’ law. In reality, it is little more than the status quo in new clothes, with a counterfeit label attached

From the @theguardian.com a few moments ago.

Relax. Farage tells us that the former culture minister Nadine Dorries, who didn't know how Channel4 was funded, is going to help develop Reform policy on the BBC's future.

Of course he has.

The BBC omitted about forty minutes from the middle of Trump's bellicose speech on Jan 6th, to provide his call to action. Omitting a caption to inform the audience of the edit sees two resignations.

Meanwhile back at the White House, Trump, found guilty of 34 felony counts...

Charles Moore on #r4today, calls for the BBC to be impartial. Err! I have perceived a right wing bias despite clear efforts to be balanced.

As an MP, Tom Watson said that if both sides of politics are complaining about the corporation, it's getting something right.

A big win for people more outraged by a silly edit at the BBC than by a man impeached by Congress for literally inciting an insurrection being back in the White House. Pathetic.
