The government has come up with a new tactic: if something’s inconvenient they say “the matter is closed” That’s not how politics works; it’s for voters to decide what matters and when the reckoning will come.

This excellent book by Haggard Hawks 🦅📚 Words | Language | Etymology is full of fascinating words and their meanings and derivations. I am learning a lot, and instantly forgetting it all. No doubt there’s a word for that.

Trials are how criminal barristers make a living. We’ve earned nothing for months. The best thing for us financially would be to support the govt’s plan to replace jury trials with trials by judge & magistrates We vote against our own interests because it’s the right thing to do

With today being the last chance to extend the Brexit transition period, it felt like the right moment to look back at what we used to have as EU members. (Some of the things on this list might end up being replicated in an eventual deal. But none will by default.)

Science and democracy are strongly interlinked - as they are both built on freedom of speech, independence, facts and transparency. If you don’t respect democracy then you probably won’t respect science. And if you don’t respect science then you probably won’t respect democracy.

Jacob Rees-Mogg has just called me "either a knave or a fool" for reporting words that Dominic Raab said. Bit of a contrast from an event I covered with him when he was speaking to journalism students at PA, when he warned politicians against accusing journalists of "fake news"

I understand the good intent behind removing anonymity on here, but if you think forcing someone to divulge their identity will stop them being a cunt online, I invite you to read the replies of any Facebook news article. It's a sledgehammer-to-crack-a-nut solution. Brief thread

418 years ago today Robert Catesby, Guy Fawkes and others attempted a plot to destroy parliament. I think they’d be proud of what the Conservative Party has achieved in the last few years.
