Not wanting to speak publicly about academia’s problems for fear that it would lend credence to your political enemy’s claims that academia has problems illustrates one huge obstacle universities face to self reform: an unwillingness to simply be honest.

This is the verbal kicking Starmer got when it came to questions. Really wasn’t worth the trip. Attacking Farage simply backfired: BBC: "Is today's speech an admission of your popularity failure, and Nigel Farage is soaring?" Sky News: "Are you running scared of Reform?" LBC:

It’s like the run up to Brexit again. If Farage becomes Prime Minister at some point, with a mandate to ditch the ECHR among other things, he will owe a huge debt to smug people like this who helped create the perfect conditions.

This decision is wrong. It revives a blasphemy law that parliament repealed. Free speech is under threat. I have no confidence in Two-Tier Keir to defend the right of the public to criticise *all* religions.

Gerry Adams. Shamima Begum. Osama bin Laden’s right-hand man. Lord Hermer has spent much of his life defending those who hate Britain. Why on earth did Starmer hand-pick him to be Attorney General?

In Britain, a ‘threatening, abusive, or insulting’ post can lead to a longer prison sentence than pedophilia convictions. Is this evidence of two-tiered policing? asks Dominic Green thefp.com/p/the-british-…

If killing civilians ‘by design’ means that killing civilians is the point, it’s unjust. If it means attacking a military objective knowing that civilians might or will be killed, it’s permissible.

Harvard has more than $50 billion in its endowment and could easily fund this research, but instead, is resorting to emotional blackmail: “Let us violate the Civil Right Act, or we won’t save these kids from tuberculosis.” Contemptible.

Nonsense piled upon nonsense. Before Brexit there were v few boat people because illegal migrants were coming in as stowaways on lorries. When that became much harder they turned to boats. The Dublin Convention made very little difference to illegal migration. The numbers

What lack of self awareness from a Labour Party with no understanding of enterprise! Each day brings fresh data showing their damage to the economy or the number of wealth creators leaving. No surprise business leaders are shunning this socialist government.

Public sector workers are more than twice as likely to be off sick than private sector workers. Are they more likely to be sick, or more likely to get away with sacking off work because there is a bottomless pit of taxpayer money funding them?

Wise is a fabulous UK FinTech. Combined with Revolut’s Paris move and millionaires fleeing London this is a devastating verdict on the UK socialist governments culture war against wealth creators. ‘Action now’ - Rachel Reeves must reverse her policies now ahead of #techweek .

Harvard Business School has switched over to “Campus & Culture” on its website, but it’s still soliciting donations from alumni for diversity and equity. Where will the money go?
