Still can’t quite believe it, but earlier this week I passed my viva, with no corrections! Big thanks to examiners @jtkoranyi and @rain_later for the thoughtful discussion, my amazing supervisors @DrMirnaSolic and @churnjeet and @sgsah for the support over the past four years!

@ScotRail I assume tickets will not be valid on the 20.01 service, as it is operated by Caledonian Sleeper?

[Dr Ross Cameron @ross_cmrn]

@ScotRail Any updates on the Corrour - Glasgow Queen Street that was due to leave at 18.25? Has the train left Fort William yet?

[Dr Ross Cameron @ross_cmrn]

@AvantiWestCoast I am due to travel on the 17.57 from Lancaster to Glasgow - any updates on this train? Will it be running? If not, any alternative routes available to get to Glasgow?

I believe that the refusal to impose meaningful consequences for the razing of Gaza - indeed its celebration on part of the right - contributed directly to this slide into the abyss. It is already too late, but it is still worth governments saying: no more.
