I'm writing a blog about this auction, but one of the lots is already getting attention in India. The remains of at least 25 people (by my count) are going up for sale tomorrow. People from South America, Africa, Asia and Oceania.

Final corrections submitted! Publication date mid-November. Am now more than slightly queasy at the thought that it's too late to pick up any more errors. But at least I finally have a cast iron argument against further attempts to ferret out more reactions to Darwin.

It is shocking to see these ‘professionals’ display such ignorance.

At this point we know Jenny Harries (UKHSA head) and Lisa Ritchie (IPC infection control head) are incompetent. It’s a political choice keeping these two in their positions. The responsibility and eventual accountability for all this avoidable disease and death is with the Govt.

“No raise? No tenure tenure protections? Not being allowed to teach things from a “non-Western” point of view? My administration cowing to politicians? For real, what incentive is there to stay in higher ed in Florida?”

The curatorial team have protocols re relocation of artworks should the wind direction take smoke into the art gallery. A very anxious time for all at The Courtauld. I send sympathy to colleagues facing this situation @TheCourtauld

Shocked to hear #Somersethouse is currently on fire! I was on the board of @SomersetHouse for 10 years. One of my favourite places in London. Hope all resolves before too much damage…
