š§µSpotted on Market Day in Aotearoa New Zealand: A small human (4?) is strutting along next to Dad, gripping a cheese scone that's almost as big as his face, munching on it like an apple. Bare feet. The sun's shining. Crumbs flying everywhere and no one cares. He's having a GOOD day. (1)

I don't think Peter Mandelson is PM's biggest problem. The biggest problem is not standing up to the literal violent racism on our streets, supercharged by the richest man in the world, and threatening the very fabric of our society. If he and so many commentators can't see this, we're truly lost.

It makes me chuckle that even if you sent back every migrant to where their journey began on a deportation flight tonight, not a single far right protestor would be better off, work harder, or notice a single benefit to their lives, other than those they already claim.

One of the best ways to cripple Russiaās ambitions longterm would be to moonshot renewables development then spread the tech everywhere super-cheap. Russia produces nothing of significance beyond oil and gas. The economy would tank. Plus a huge win in the fight against the climate crisis.

I prosecute and defend the most serious sexual offences in our courts. The overwhelming majority of offenders are British-born. Overwhelmingly the victim is someone known to them, either a partner or relative. Anybody purporting to care about protecting women might start there.

lifeboats are crewed by brave people. I used to live near one of the launch stations, in Stromness, Orkney. When the boat went out, often in dire conditions, it felt like the whole town stopped until they were safely back in harbour. 'For those in peril on the sea'

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.
