55 years ago today, Enoch Powell gave his poisonous "Rivers of Blood" speech, filled with claims about 'alien inflows' and 'fraudulent entry'. We were founded the same year. The 'Illegal' Migration Bill returns to Parliament next week, with that same dehumanising rhetoric. 🧵

I teach college music theory, but I'm also a new dad. I decided to combine my professional and personal identities and make a thread of music for babies where the adult musicians went way, way harder than they had to. (1/12)

This week, we acknowledge the anniversary of the murder of George Floyd, 25 May 2020. In the Blackout Tuesday spirit of looking back to look forward, we remember the life he lived and the change that has transpired since his death.

Richard Stone -my first mentor in politics. Gave me precious advice when I was 16 years old growing up near his house in Hampstead. Championed me endlessly to be his MP. A real feminist, a race equality activist with conviction. We will never forget you. theguardian.com/world/2024/mar…

So sad to hear this news. Richard Stone, who played a fundamental role as part of the Stephen Lawrence Inquiry was an outspoken advocate for the disadvantaged, and a passionate anti-racist campaigner. He will be much missed. amp.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar… theguardian.com/world/2024/mar…

It's been nearly two months since I was laid off from TechCrunch. A lot has happened! I connected with a lot of old friends, made new friends, had a lengthy hospital stay, and found some new projects. I'm thrilled to announce one of the new projects: The Resilience Conference.

This is a fantastic and much needed initiative led by Leslie Hitchcock, pulling together allies to address failing in the resilience of supply chain, energy and political stability as well as accelerate our defence capabilities. Follow @resilience_conf or visit resilienceconference.io

We were talking about software defined warfare back in February 2025 - it will be interesting to watch as the DoD and with it wide parts of the industry will rebrand defense to warfare: resiliencemedia.co/p/in-munich-as…
