Bar book-related plugs and FLA episodes, won’t be on here much for a while. Genuinely quite scared about the future and the lack of paid work. If you know of any book editorial work coming up, do email me (email in bio). PS I do have to work from home at the moment. Thanks c

Why stop at £600 million? If they can just find one foreign student who is willing to pay a few trillion to study here that would solve a lot of problems.

This is bizarre. Like the editor of the guardian or mail or any other paper complaining repeatedly about the front page lead they decided to run with.
Very good example of what's wrong with broadcast news - they've given up deciding for themselves what is or isn't news and what the priorities are

It’s a sign of how insane the news cycle is these days that this historic failure of government policy got just one day of news coverage this week.
Not saying that’s right or wrong, but it’s astonishing how quickly the agenda moves on these days.

I don't use the word lightly, but this is really just evil isn't it. "Your identity makes us uncomfortable so be gone from public spaces." Fuck off.
I mean come on: we'll ask but reserve right to exclude you on the basis of how you look. Oh, and if you try to use your birth sex specific facilities we'll kick you out of those as well.
