Just to be clear - I believe everything the Michael Jackson accusers said. If you choose to deny it because you like his music, that’s your moral choice, but I would educate yourself on his crimes before seeing this disgrace of a movie.

Hey @AldiUK this letter you’ve sent my son is intimidating. You never mentioned to him that he was over paid, threatening him with debt recovery action and asking for immediate payment (on a date 2 weeks before you’ve even sent the letter) is awful. You made the mistake not him.

I marvel at how often & in so many different ways #BBCQT makes so many questionable editorial decisions. There is a by election happening in north London exactly 1 week after this show but only 1 of the 2 leading parties is represented here. How is this remotely fair or balanced?

You cannot be a leftist- or in any event a decent human being- and walk away from the university humanities. This is class war; making these fields only available to an aristocracy is the opposite of using literacy, critical thinking, and the spread of ideas to better the world.

An international pariah.

And we're back! Disrupting Shell's event in London today. We don't only do street protest, we disrupt the heart of corporate power too, at conferences, AGMs and champagne receptions. Join us at our next welcome talk: Thursday 1st October at 6pm, sign up at the link in bio.

So this is what electing a democratic socialist mayor can get you: corporations issuing groveling apologies for underpaying their workers

Tomorrow we have our final special before the new series begins in October and it is a banger! @deathofbuckley and Alison Dennison both return to discuss 2004 ITV Comedy Director's Commentary with @robertcheath and @Guyston_Walker

If you thought Ed Sheeran’s music was a crime against humanity….oh dear.

We pour billions into the fertility industry to make babies. But fighting for a liveable planet? No. Children now won’t survive the climate emergency. That’s the truth.

My thoughts are with the Prime Minister and his family as he grieves the loss of his father. There are moments in life such as this sad time that transcend politics and I join the whole country in sending condolences.

With the passing of Wendell Berry, a great voice of the Soul leaves us. May we keep it alive.

The Nazis hid their concentration camps for fear outrage would equal intervention. They knew it was wrong. But Israel doesn’t hide anything. They just rely on the normalising of horror and us all living with this for life, knowing we did nothing.

I loved Sam Neill. His autobiography is absolutely wonderful. Joyful, touching, interesting, sweet. Jurassic Park changed my whole life. I studied film at uni because of it. I’m grateful to him for being who he was.

RIP Sam Neill (1947-2026) Sam Neill on why "The Piano" (1993) is an important movie in Cinema history: "I don’t think I can overestimate how important 'The Piano' (1993) is for me in hindsight. It sits on my funny old CV like a medal on my chest. It wasn’t my film. It was Jane Campion's. I wasn’t the star of the film. That was Holly Hunter. But there is honour to be found in the second fiddle. Or fourth. No one notices you much, you don’t get nominated for things. But you served. I was there in an important feminist film. I was there on the front line in an important New Zealand film. Neither of these labels does the film justice. It’s a work of art. And look, that tiny little figure in the fabric— see down there on the right—that’s me. It’s a film that will always have a place in cinema history. And I served in it." ("Did I Ever Tell You This: A Memoir", Sam Neill, 2023)

“More durable than a mere pin-up, he was a beloved character actor who improved everything he was in.” Perfectly put by Ryan Gilbey. RIP Sam Neill theguardian.com/film/2026/ju…
