We move in to our new studio in January and still have a bit of work to do to get it ready, but we can't think of a better location for a studio for Scotland's independent broadcaster? We do need to raise about £30K, so please donate whatever you can afford.

This is deeply troubling. The silence of so much of the mainstream. That this should be happening when a former human rights lawyer is Prime Minister… Peace is a greater threat to the powerful than war.

We might have found the perfect studio space, but we have a lot to do to make the move. We have to be out of our current premises by the end of January, so we really need your support to reach our £30k target in just 6 weeks.

Lineker & now Ince. Even for those not paying attention it should now be obvious that the sort of people who whine loudest about “cancel culture” are the ones doing the cancelling. The far right’s commitment to “freedom of speech” is an authoritarian joke & the BBC has disgraced itself.

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.
