SKY NEWS HELPS US CATCH A CONVICTED ISLAMIST: This is Shehraz Sarwar from Birmingham, he was convicted and JAILED for shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’ and ‘boom’ on his journey home from Dubai to Birmingham.
In the video attached is Sarwar brandishing a "sword" like weapon in the middle of street in public totally ignored by @SkyNews.
And now, the end is near
The Tories face the final curtain
The exit poll made it clear
Conservative defeat is now certain
They've pinched a bucket-full
Left holes on each and every highway
And less, much less than this
They made their lies pay
Good days, they've had so few
But then again, too few to mention
Ignored what they had to do
Shirked responsibility without exception
They fought fake culture wars
Flogged infrastructure off to Huawei
And less, much less than this
They made their lies pay
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you'll mourn
Like the MP caught with tractor porn
After four leaders, left with just Rishi
Bets on the election all very fishy
You voted Labour, I've got a new neighbour
Time to do things my way!

I understand the good intent behind removing anonymity on here, but if you think forcing someone to divulge their identity will stop them being a cunt online, I invite you to read the replies of any Facebook news article. It's a sledgehammer-to-crack-a-nut solution. Brief thread
Science and democracy are strongly interlinked - as they are both built on freedom of speech, independence, facts and transparency.
If you don’t respect democracy then you probably won’t respect science. And if you don’t respect science then you probably won’t respect democracy.
Jacob Rees-Mogg has just called me "either a knave or a fool" for reporting words that Dominic Raab said.
Bit of a contrast from an event I covered with him when he was speaking to journalism students at PA, when he warned politicians against accusing journalists of "fake news"

With today being the last chance to extend the Brexit transition period, it felt like the right moment to look back at what we used to have as EU members.
(Some of the things on this list might end up being replicated in an eventual deal. But none will by default.)
Trials are how criminal barristers make a living. We’ve earned nothing for months. The best thing for us financially would be to support the govt’s plan to replace jury trials with trials by judge & magistrates
We vote against our own interests because it’s the right thing to do
