Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

So, they do have an issue with free speech after all. Local lad gives articulate interview to the media and gets abused, pushed, shoved and chased by this set of absolute tossers. Makes me embarrassed to share their nationality
This is vile. Local guy speaks to Sky News about the impact of asylum seekers protests. Watch what happens and share widely

Have you got any old tech lying around that is too good to throw out but too much effort to sell on?
If you bring it along to our bring and buy stall then you can make room on your shelf for some cool new stuff while also making some cash for charity.
A win for everyone.

This is a very good, succinct piece by Ben Saul.
