The pig's head story is quite something

The mad episode of the professionals where gangsters attempt to take the home secretary hostage and are thwarted by Cowley realising that no one knows what the home secretary looks like is on itv4 just now. Series 1 has of course the Cowley takes the lads to soft play before tea opening titles

It was preposterous that amnesty characterised a trauma informed service to support women who have been subject to sexual and domestic violence as anti rights. There was an impact on service users and this shows an impact on staff. No wonder those involved were and remain so angry

Bath has corrected the post now to reflect a video of the interview which shows prof arday did not suggest he had joined a professional snooker tour. How an interview where he said he wasn't good enough to be professional was transcribed as Arday saying he joined a pro tour is a hell of an error.

Not sure anyone in football could read Cordeiro's resignation statement and think there was an economic case for the infantino shenanigans never mind a sporting case

Never mind media ecosystems, some devolved legislatures are nor good at scrutiny of the executive either.

You really can't assess plagiarism or academic sloppy practice based on a purity test of the person who raises the issue. The GLP gets involved with a variety of topics (and fundraises on the back of them) based on agreeing with certain views. This is naive.

Richard Tice has posted a lament from a bricklayer about health and safety. It reminded me of an older lament from a bricklayer showing why health and safety is a good thing

Series 1 bullseye has been on challenge past few nights. Bowen is awful. He scores the darts badly (often looks questionable). He breaks momentum of the thrower by putting his head in line of throw to check the score. The format is creeping towards something but not there. The quiz board is shoddy.

This is great.

If it hadn't been for the requirements to be exciting, important, and an artist I could have been a contender

If prepared to exaggerate a pro tour snooker career where the records indicate you were never a pro, played no pro tour matches, and only played one top level amateur match I am afraid that the very act of bringing the great self policing sport of snooker into it is a step too far.

She has been very good on her 5 live show Monday to Wednesday. A good choice for the role, although sorry to see rachel burden leave breakfast.

This is great.

@john-self.bsky.social re your new times piece do you know the story of paul reekie and the children of albion rovers collection of rebel inc stories (which included alan warner, irvine welsh, james meek)?

Others can comment on plagiarism and Prof Arday but I note one oddity about snooker in his bio. In an interview when at Bath blogs.bath.ac.uk/vice-preside... he said he had joined a professional snooker tour. Jason Arday played in the English amateur championship in 2002. He lost 4 0 in the 1st rd

First heard this ISIRTA song 30 or so years ago but the tune and lots of the lyrics stuck.
