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.

This lurid headline is about British tourists no longer getting away with overstaying in Schengen. Or being 'illegals', as it's often called in the UK.

Zack Polanski is a leader we can all get behind. Inspirational, clear, honest. He answers questions when asked. He has ideas and plans, and he has the knowledge to back them up.
If you aren't a Green, please take a look.

"For the next 15 years, give us a subsidy from public money, and remove the disincentive for us to stop dumping raw sewage, so our creditors are rescued from the consequences of their own greed" is not, I have to say, the world's most appealing pitch. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Thames Water creditors ask for up to 15 years’ leniency from river pollution rules

Lenders say a ‘full return to legal, regulatory and environmental compliance’ under new rescue plan would not be completed until at least 2035-2040

As Shami Chakrabati pointed in her book 'On Liberty', ten or more years ago, that horse has long since bolted as we gleefully signed up to smartphones, Nectar cards and careless acceptance of cookies. The interesting thing will be how they hoover up those still off the radar.
