Another wrap on @AmySCameron before she heads off to @GreenpeaceUK. A gifted communicator who can change the most stubborn of minds, and a terrific sport. The rise of the @NEON_UK alumni continues!

"Three years after, there is no non-theoretical evidence that lockdowns were necessary to save lives. This is not an ambiguous outcome; it is what failure looks like." Every single word of this. Every last one. 🔥

At the same time, three years on, the absence of any non-theoretical evidence that lockdowns saved lives overall makes the case in favour seem more and more flimsy: unherd.com/2023/03/why-do…

Currently writing about the decision to introduce facemasks in the UK. I have read SCI-B's 20 April 2020 return to SAGE many times, but it is more more extraordinary everytime I read it. Here's why....🧵

Grateful for the national leadership of @RishiSunak in recognising 'lack of seventeen year olds being able to solve quadratic equations' as being the most important of the multiple crises that need to be addressed in the UK right now.

This is really sad! The Papers is an institution - a relaxed, informed discussion where people have time to reflect on the news stories in detail, rather than in quick soundbitey “debates” as on other programmes. Devastating news

BBC News is getting rid of the nightly paper review. What an enormous shame - and also denies people worldwide a breakdown and analysis of what’s in the news by people other than bbc employees.

This reflects far worse on the MP than on the producer who is simply doing his job. Tweeting private messages from journalists just asking a question really is not a good look.

Brilliant article from @JamesHeartfield. Britain's libel laws are a huge threat to a free press - I hope to live to see their abolition.

Carole Cadwalladr is spreading fake news. Her libel victory does not vindicate her anti-Brexit journalism. It exposed it as a smear campaign, full of untruths and prejudice, says @JamesHeartfield spiked-online.com/2022/06/22/car…
