My friend Mark Mardell was chucked off his Turkish Airlines flight at the weekend because he had Parkinson’s and his son had asked for assistance for him. (He’s written about it as a public post on Facebook but the link is proving hard to share outside,)

Just announced: the UK's most famous libel firm, Carter-Ruck, is being prosecuted before the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal for recklessly enabling a $4bn fraud

It's astonishing how reckless Carter-Ruck was - likely causing $$$ more to be lost to fraudsters

I think we need to consider the benefits that could accrue from mergers rather than just fall back on the 'local accountability' argument - which is frankly wearing very thin indeed these days. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article....

Merging Suffolk and Norfolk police forces opposed by MP

There are no firm plans to combine them but some believe devolution will make it more likely.

The Scottish play …..

Saw #secretshakespeare in the Abbey Ruins in Reading. Really excellent. Moving around the ruins with the actors used the backdrop superbly. I gather it’s on until 7August - if you are in the #Reading area give it a go

For the last 10 years these two Swans have lived around Ancoats, every year they’ve raised Cygnet’s… and have brought so much joy to this part of the world…

Earlier today the male Swan was attacked by a dog (no lead no muzzle) and was put down by the RSPCA… I’m so incandescent/sad…

RIP old friend!

Great that we get 2 tests a year on this absolute pudding of a Lords pitch whilst Headingley doesn’t get an ashes test next time…

It’s a little irritating when the normally sound Nick Knight commentating on the woman’s blast about a bowling dilemma refers to “he” several times @skysports.bsky.social

Which, to be crystal clear, does not mean that I hold any candle for the vile Iranian regime,which has exported terror and oppressed its own people for decades. It would be great if the theocracy collapsed, and the Iranian people finally secured their freedom. But, beyond bombing, what’s the plan?

Alex Hall Hall @alexhh.bsky.social · Jun 22

My unoriginal comment is that this will not end well. Easier to start wars than end them, let alone on your terms. (As Hamas found out). Unforeseen consequences. What’s the Israel/US strategy for the day after? Do they even have one? I have zero confidence in Trump’s national security team.
