By 1989 hundreds of people had died trying to get out of East Berlin. Oskar Brandt was different. He was dying to get back in. WHEN WE WERE GHOSTS. #TheNovelry

@MrJohnNicolson What an amazing treasure to still have!

One of the most effective bits of political communication on the left I’ve seen in a long time. A message and a powerful messenger.

Paul McCartney has dedicated #StGeorgesDay to Georges everywhere, loved & lost. Here’s mine: J George Stant, the suave Grandpa I never met. Served in the Great War & killed in his shipyard during the #ClydebankBlitz. My Mum adored him and, I know, thought of him every day.

@Lloyd_Cole Lovely venue!

I think that if you’re going to write a piece in the Times urging the government to use and boost more AI, the fact that you are paid by a major AI company should be in the first sentence, or at least first paragraph.
I also think that the best scenario for AI is that it destroys millions of jobs with the prosperity, dignity and community that goes with them.
The worst scenario is the destruction of the human race - a fear openly expressed by an increasing number of senior and experienced AI engineers who are leaving the industry.
And somewhere in between a myriad of horrors such as yet more screen learning and screen addiction for our children.
But I do see that it will make rich men even richer. And that’s the most important thing of course.

It's received wisdom that Farage is taking on too many Tories. But is that really the case? Especially when you remember that what he really wants to do is not differentiate from them, but to take their place. My piece on the Jenrick defection.

@AmanpourPod @amanpour @JamesP_Rubin @GlobalPlayer Love this new segment! It reminded me I’ve got Paul Auster’s 4 3 2 1 still waiting to be read. #DeepJoy
