Some teachers may not be aware of the changeover to Tata from Capita at the end of this month. Please download your pension statements and service history- you might need them!!

More proof of the complete absurdity of the proscription of Palestine Action.

What a stain on this government that people in this country are unable to buy and enjoy the work of one of this generation’s greatest writing talents.

De-proscribe Palestine Action now.

Solidarity with Sally Rooney, who has more moral clarity and conviction than the entire Burnham government.

With thanks to my friend Indru Nariani (former chemistry teacher and avid collector of vinyl): music in graphs …

@ScarredForLife2 And of course this was done with such affection…

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Ed Miliband is right to say that people who have demonstrated in support of Palestine and against genocide were right all along.

Match your words, Ed, and de-proscribe Palestine Action, now.

A French film explaining what would happen if non whites did what angry white racists want them to do by going back to where they came from. Absolutely sublime. We need this sort of creativity here.

We have been overwhelmed by the supportive messages we've received. We would like to thank you wholeheartedly – your kindness means so much to us. It normally costs around £180m each year to run our charity – all funded by our generous supporters.

Today, I asked the government to take action to stop the growth of the far-right.

This seemed to upset the Reform MPs in front of me.

We are witnessing an assault here and the police must investigate.

The protester has a right to heckle, whether you or I agree or disagree with the views or approve or disapprove of the tactic.

But it is against the law to physically attack people.

according to the Telegraph (1st Sept) the Greens took control of Camden Council in May which will surprise Labour who actually run it. Even basic fact checking has departed the Telegraph now

Two redheads helped inspire one of Dolly Parton’s most famous songs. The story came from a red-haired bank teller who flirted with her husband, while the name “Jolene” came from a young red-haired fan Dolly met in an autograph line. Released in 1973, the track appeared on her 1974 album Jolene and topped the US country chart. Live in 1974, Dolly was performing a song destined to become a classic.
