No-one gets Marple like Hickson. Nobody plays both sides absolutely genuinely. You can see from this why she was born to play the roll, and why it's the one she's most remembered for. This is both her and the character's absolute peak. RIP Joan.

What actually happened?
Girlguiding’s leadership made a political risk-management decision, not a legal one.
They chose the most conservative reading of the law - not the only reading, not the required reading.

Very disappointing from Girlguiding. An opportunity to stand up and to support a marginalised group passed by out of fear.
This is the consequence of trans bashing. Fear of the other never works out well and always spreads beyond what it was 'supposed' to.

“Did you, in your roles as his boss, friend, mentor & party leader, ever question his full-throated support for an enemy of the UK and if not, why not?”
You can have those for nothing, lads.

Farage can now be easily boxed in to a corner where his only ‘defence’ becomes: “Yes I spouted Kremlin propaganda & Putin worship but, unlike Nathan Gill, I didn’t need bribes to do it.”
It is, once again, a question of whether interviewers have the temerity to shut down his whining obfuscations.

Labour's long term strategy of delivering us to the fash undeterred by the prospect of falling even further in the polls
I’m told Labour MPs have been told by whips to *abstain* in the vote on Nigel Farage’s ten-min rule bill on leaving the ECHR, which has left some furious. Whips’ arguments seems to be to just ignore it. Labour MPs worry it leaves Lib Dems/Greens looking like only they care on this.
