The dearth of people running universities who understand that research is actually the point of a university is one of the biggest signs of the intellectual apocalypse we find ourselves within

Forget standard war docs. "Churchill & the Movie Mogul" reveals how Churchill enlisted Hollywood producer Alexander Korda to wage a propaganda war. A brilliant look at when filmmaking became a weapon. History and film buffs, this is for you! #HollywoodHistory #Churchill #WW2History

Sorry to hear about the death of Mark Tully. Anyone who worked in India for the BBC instantly became the beneficiary of his wisdom, kindness, humour and, above all, reputation. In India Mark Tully was the BBC. An absolute giant.

Principal of University of Edinburgh, Sir Peter Mathieson flummoxed when asked his pay.

A 7.5% pay rise. Earning more than the Scottish First Minister and UK PM combined but still "not quite sure"

Meanwhile staff face £140m cuts @ucuedinburgh @UCUScotland
