Other than when anaesthetists split away from surgeons as a specialty and when the intensivists decided to split away from us, I don't think there has been an issue that anaesthetists have felt so strongly about with reference to their professional identities as the issue of AAs.

This podcast has been a long time coming. I don't ever want to be knee-jerk, I'm all for allowing people to prove themselves but nothing I've seen from the bloke leaves me feeling he's good for Crystal Palace FC.

From all I’ve seen of Hobbs, he has next to no innovation in his recruitment choices, doesn’t understand our club, doesn’t understand value in transfers and doesn’t have our long-term success at the heart of his decision making at all.

A Labour Peer interviewing a Labour minister. This is so utterly absurd. We so badly need media reform.
Labour govt minister Yvette Cooper tells Labour peer Ayesha Hazarika, who is interviewing her, "you're a journalist"

Shame Sage will get the hit & the other two will get away with it.

The manager will, of course, take the fall and deservedly so. But Parish and Hobbs set him up to fail with the abysmal defensive recruitment in the summer. All three of them must take accountability. #CPFC

At 25, you might dream of studying in Rome. At 45, you might discover a business opportunity in Berlin. At 65, you might want to retire in Spain. Freedom of Movement meant you didn't have to know your future in advance. That's the extraordinary freedom Brexit took away.

Declassified finds evidence suggesting a British man, Jonathan Burman, likely participated in war crimes in Gaza. Why has Scotland Yard's war crimes unit failed to investigate Burman – or the 2,000 other Britons who've served in Gaza? Watch here: youtube.com/watch?v=Fzj3_gbs…

A good rule of history: if you find yourself opposing a student movement while siding with the ruling class, you're wrong. Every time, in every era, whatever the issue.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Student movements have not always been on the right side of history. Mao's student Red Guards persecuted hundreds of thousands. Students helped Castro and Khomeini rise to power, and Nazi student groups opposed the Weimar Republic. britannica.com/topic/Red-Guar… encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/art… aei.org/education/actu…

Thank you for shining a light on the darkness at the heart of our government. Everyone knows the people the police should be investigating.

Thanks to all supporters. As an 83 yr old survivor of the Nakba and one of my many friends in Rafah (now obliterated) said to me when I was last there, “ keep writing Sarah we need all the pencils we can get”.

We're all born left wing. Ask any kid if homeless people should be fed and housed, if everyone deserves healthcare, if bombing families is wrong, if racism is bad, if air and water should be clean, if trees and nature are good...
How are any young men left wing I genuinely don’t understand

Hate to say it, but there is a reason why people are turning off once respectable programmes like Newsnight in droves. Marshall is entirely unqualified to talk about these issues. Why he is on there is anybody's guess. His only qualification is his blowhard podcast. Faiza Sheehan is a qualified economist. The time devoted to these complex issues is ludicrously short, about four minutes, and reduces the issues to soundbites.
"(Burnham) says he doesn't want to be divisive and yet he brings up the most divisive issue of the last 10 years" Ex-Mumford & Sons member turned podcaster Winston Marshall says Andy Burnham's stance on Brexit won't be popular with "Red Wall" voters. #Newsnight

It's become painfully clear that structuring our whole society around maximising profit instead of the wellbeing of people and planet was a REALLY terrible idea.
