Great to see the University of East Anglia keeping the Christmas lecture tradition alive with a festive deep-dive for children into how our brains work. It’s popular for a reason, and booking now is strongly advised.

Intriguing, challenging and informing. For a century, the BBC has been our classroom, our concert hall, our stage, our storyteller and our window on the world. Politicians need reminding: its much more than a news channel.

No less than €180 billion in frozen Russian assets are dispersed across the European Union.

The EU plan would be to deploy €140 billion (£122bn) of these assets as a zero-interest “reparations loan” to Ukraine, providing Ukraine with urgently needed resources.

Right wing populism was anything but the gravy train that the Brexiteers were pushing. Like it could have been anything else but snake oil
Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances. A new decade-long Brexit study explains it: a 6–8% hit to GDP – that's £180bn-£240bn a year – means less tax, less investment and less money for everything else.

Brexit made Britain poorer. Much poorer.

The BBC is a public service broadcaster - news, drama, music, documentary and at its heart, be it for children or adults, education.

It's World Service reaches around the world and in a fragmenting world it must survive, writes Stephen MacNair.
