I’m back on @BBCRadio3 this morning at 10:30 with @andrewCDmcg, trying to choose my favourite recording of the Saint-Saens organ symphony - turns out I have some quite strong opinions about this piece 😂 see you there!!

A visit to Grantham Probation today to spend time with one of our Women’s Service Practitioners. A lively group craft session with some excellent examples of peer support, ETE from one of our @co_financing Case Managers, and several cases desperately needing housing #TeamWork

Still reeling from this horrific evidence from Prof John Edmunds at the Covid Inquiry yesterday. In refusing to lockdown in autumn 2020, Boris Johnson was responsible for up to 25,000 Covid deaths by ignoring the experts & evidence. It’s sickening 😔

Judges get power to order criminals to attend sentencing hearing including by force if necessary but plan fraught with diffs - getting prisoner up narrow steps into dock and dealing with someone who may shout abuse at victim’s family, police, jury and judge

👇🏻 is true. Yet not a word across most of the media so far as I can tell. Corruption breeds when the media turns a blind eye to things it knows to be true
The house building industry are major donors to the Tory party and today they got a bung from Sunak and Gove - who removed water pollution protections from new house building, and dumped the cost on the taxpayer instead. That’s how they roll.

If sex doesn’t mean biological sex then women & girls are no longer protected under sex discrimination law. The decades of fighting by past generations, who suffered to get injustices recognised, is being eroded by a small groups of aggressive, narcissistic, entitled men

The most expensive dish in the UK ? Cost - 101 illegally killed Hen Harriers since 2018 , plus 10K’s eagles , kites buzzards , 100K’s foxes , stoats , corvids all killed , vast swathes of ecologically derelict uplands , tonnes of carbon in the atmosphere and its full of lead .
August grouse. Possibly the greatest food on the planet

sorry to go on about it - another reminder of what Zeb and I are up to on Saturday ….
Behold the life and love of Benjamin Britten and Peter Pears in My Beloved Man, a performance this Saturday featuring readings of their letters to each other, read by @zebsoanes and @PetrocTrelawny with choral music from @thefourthchoir. Book here: bit.ly/459mO5f

All the while such stupidity persists it has to countered. Toss a coin once and you won’t know if it’ll be heads or tails (weather: will it rain next week?) but after 1000 tosses you know half will be heads (climate: longer range average trend).
Matt goes to the heart of it. With current measurement technology and state-of-the-art computers it is still impossible to predict the weather more than a few days ahead. Yet these same people, with the same technology, think they can model long term climate change. They can't.

Boycott @CostaCoffee You have more power than you realize.
Dear @CostaCoffee, Could you kindly explain why you are glorifying irreversible surgery performed on healthy breasts of women for a mental health condition?

I mean, she’s been right all along. I’m proud to say I stood with her from the beginning. I have been vilified & lambasted & abused, nothing like JK, but eventually the truth will out. I ❤️JKRowling.

This is the end of my column that caused THAT letter that meant I left The Guardian. ' Male violence is an issue for women, which is why we want single-sex spaces. Vulnerable women in refuges and prisons must be allowed to live in safe environments '

If sex isn’t real, there’s no same-sex attraction. If sex isn’t real, the lived reality of women globally is erased. I know and love trans people, but erasing the concept of sex removes the ability of many to meaningfully discuss their lives. It isn’t hate to speak the truth.

Keir Starmer agrees that a woman is an adult human female. Will Ed Davey also rejoin the real world, science & the English language by reversing his view that a woman can “quite clearly” have a penis? Inability to face reality in small things bodes ill for more serious matters.
