Making mental health talking and other therapies easily and speedily accessible to all who need it, so many can recover and restart their lives is great, and once done you can look at those who aren't working who could be.

Taking away vital support from people when they have…

Science is not an ideology, it's a set of processes.

Likewise philosophy - particularly western - is not only about crafting ideology, but provides a toolkit for testing our convictions & communication for inconsistency, fallacy & illogic.

And they're needed now more than ever.

You've got to love this image. It captures perfectly the range of feelings in the country toward the government.

Or at least the feelings permissible to demonstrate in a TV studio.

Planning & scripting your first podcast based on a unique topic & approach is seriously hard work, & an ongoing battle of self-doubt & bloody-minded determination 😅

Still, Diary of an Amateur Philosopher is well on the way.

Watch this space over the next week for a sneak peek.

We really need an economic system that doesn't rely on a social strata of inveterate gamblers and criminals convincing everyone their living lavishly off everyone else's wealth

The ECHR is our only protection from the state.

If we leave, they can do anything they want. They claim it’s about asylum seekers but it’s about ultimate power.

The half a billion pounds the Tories have spent on the Rwanda scheme so far would have covered last year's cuts to adult social care. Twice over.

Hasn't anyone gotten bored yet of swinging between extreme libertarianism and extreme authoritarianism so often?

You'd have thought we'd have figured out how to at least try and make them work together and strengthen each others' vulnerabilities by now in a democratic society.
