This email to parents, from the Head of London’s Jewish Free School - especially the bit about kids not having to wear the blazer, so as not to be attacked or suffer hate on the streets because it might mark them out as going to a Jewish school - breaks my heart.

Most thought provoking play I’ve seen for a while #HTanthropology @Hamps_Theatre However, re seeing AI as an effective tool - only subject to corruption if the wrong people use it (see also @creatorthefilm) hasn’t this always been the point from genetic engineering to the bomb?

A beautiful piece of filmmaking which shows that effective therapy is really 99% about the relationship between therapist and client #jonahhill #Stutz #stutznetflix

Every once in a while a documentary comes along that pushes humanity forward in its evolution. ‘My Octopus Teacher’ was one of them, and this one is too.

@HabitatUK - so I ordered a large mirror and shoe rack for husband's office but just received a box of tumblers. I mean we could always do with more tumblers but not sure it's going to overwhelm as a birthday present...today

The government has left #ForgottenFreelancers to fend for themselves. Our latest survey revealed that #film&TV workers predict a slow return to normal working. If we're not careful we'll lose highly skilled workers as they are forced to seek work elsewhere:https://t.co/bMa3LSilRb
