Most people who tweet at me are bots trying to generate fake engagement for the Social Democratic Party.

Breaking my Twitter fast (for all the good it will do) to share this @Demos report on how to strengthen the independence and accountability of the @BBC:

In 2008 I had the opportunity to spend a bit of time after the @globalvoices summit in Budapest with Wael Abbas and Alaa Abd El-Fattah - I can’t find the full interview atm, but here’s a short extract in which Alaa appears at around 4 mins:

The National Allotment Society says there is no war on #allotments. The Telegraph’s disingenuous & inflammatory reporting (so out of character!) was designed to politicise & polarise another arena of communal life, as the comments show:

[The Telegraph @Telegraph]

Angela Rayner has given the green light for cash-strapped councils to sell off allotments to raise funds⤵️

🚨NEW: No. 10 staffer tells me that the 'selling off allotments' policy was issued in revenge after Jeremy Corbyn announced his new party. Staffer tells there was a meeting on Monday to decide how to react and this one got passed and Rayner was sent out with it this morning 🧵

@Telegraph Not true - here’s a statement from the National Allotment Society that provides proper context and (very gently) criticises your reporting.

[Sameer Padania @sdp]

@Telegraph Disappointingly poor quality, agenda-driven reporting with a clickbait headline designed to outrage and divide rather than inform. Here’s what the National #Allotment Society says:

Another prominent scientist protests to the @royalsociety over its silence at the anti-#science actions of the owner of this site.

Have been thinking recently that I need to take a course in economics, but this terrific thread, and listening to @KateRaworth on @ExponentialView, is making me wonder whether intro courses are really fit for purpose...
