Tony Blair has warned that some "progressive" politicians are failing to tackle left-wing antisemitism because they are unwilling to confront what he called an “unholy alliance” with hardline Islamist groups. https://t.co/qTV1TtmY49

@Gatwick_Airport none of your plugs sockets in the north terminal work. NONE! It’s quite annoying!

@BBCNews Being a journalist and outdoor sports/ski writer I do find this all a bit dubious. There are avalanche deaths every year you’re just now reporting on it more regularly .

Latest piece for #FranceToday: Après-ski in the French Alps is very much alive and kicking but it's also embracy variety. https://t.co/LSRk3ZG3AN

Avalanche deaths are tragic and deserve serious discussion. But framing off-piste skiing as a “middle-class folly” driven by social media ignores the long tradition of Alpine mountaineering and the many skiers who approach the mountains with training and respect.

[The Spectator @spectator]

An avalanche in the French Alps claimed the lives of two skiers this week. In total, 30 skiers have lost their lives in one of the most deadly Alpine winters in memory.

Like the majority of victims this season in France, the skiers had ignored avalanche warnings and ventured off-piste.
