The Nobel Prizes are awarded today. This year, *all* the science & economics winners are white men 🤦

This is why representation matters. This is why programs that support women in STEM (or any male dominated space) is important. I wish more men had this perspective and respect for their female peers.

Sir Tom wrote a book which he said was to raise funds for the NHS.
He died, his daughter made herself head of his charity, and gave the entire £1.47m raised to herself.
We really should be talking about prison.
