I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

This is off the top of my head.
These sorts of inefficiencies happen on quite literally a daily basis. Everybody in the system knows this. Everyone.
Yet what is the government’s diagnosis?
“Juries. They are the problem. Get rid of juries.”
It is absolutely mind-boggling.

One of the best things about punk rock was that it restored regional British accents to music. I've - rather late in the day - just listened to Led Zeppelin III, and the awful aping of US accents on that is - for me - one of the many nails in its bloated dirible, and one of the many triumphs of punk

Astonishing #BBC's #ChrisMason happy to put all this effort into anti-Labour reports, yet sits silently at numerous reports from Farage's classmates, recalling his racism. Why is that? '#Directly'?

I haven't seen any yet but you could probably find a few contemporaries who didn't personally witness Farage being Farage at school. But there doesn't seem to be a single former pupil or teacher who find the descriptions of racism, anti-semitism & cruelty unfeasible. Shocked, I tell you...

My attendance record in the European Parliament was the 4th worst out of 751 MEPs, yet I managed to turn up to vote AGAINST plans to tackle Russian misinformation.
Thankfully this is of no interest to the media.
