How is it that a major IS conference that begins in less than two weeks has still NOT posted the final, and full programme?? There is no message even online to say why. #ECIS2026 #poorlyorganized

I was so sad to hear of the passing of Karl Weick yesterday. Here is a picture of me with Dr. Weick in 2013. He was so kind to this newbie scholar-practitioner. His work will always hold a special place in my heart! RIP!😇 #KarlWeick #UMRossSchoolofBusiness #sensemaking

AI just killed higher education’s old teaching model. We need smaller classes and oral defenses for every paper—implying more faculty time, hence more professors. Since banning AI is unenforceable, written work alone can no longer be trusted.

Has anyone in the press picked up what happened in 2019. As @BylineTimes reported, Farage and Johnson colluding with US based Bannon to topple May.

According to Ben Habib, Thailand based Harborne paying Johnson and Farage to stitch up 2019 elections

Striking contrast between visceral domestic criticism of Starmer and high regard in which he's held by several European counterparts. Latest article @BylineTimes

So let me get this right.

- UK economy outperformed expectations, growing in March despite Iran.
- Unemployment down from 5.1 to 4.9%.
- Waiting lists coming down
- Progress finally being made on restoring ties with Europe.

@wesstreeting @Ed_Miliband why derail this now.

Sam Coates of Sky News has just proved every single thing we fear about the media, correct.

Bought and paid for.

Leveson 2 is so badly needed … but on steroids.

UK gilt yields have hit an 18-year high. That's not because the economy collapsed. It's because bond markets fear Labour might elect a slightly more left-wing leader. When financial markets seek to constrain democratic choice, that is not economic discipline. It is political power, exercised without a ballot. https://t.co/Si9LORlRHt

The real tragedy is not just that innocent people die, but that the world watches it and then gets used to it.

[Andrew Neil @afneil]

Not getting enough attention amid the Starmer soap opera: UK economy had strong start to the year: 0.6% growth in Q1. Month on month 0.3% in March alone. The UK economy is developing a habit of strong growth in Q1 then petering out. Look at last year. And 2024. Good chance this could happen again, especially with the baleful impact of Trump’s War on the global economy. Even so, 0.6% in Q1 is impressive.

The only people who need to resign today are the political journalists and editors at @BBCNews and @SkyNews

I've never seen such a downright sinister plot to remove a democratically elected sitting PM.

Our media is absolutely fucking toxic.
