Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers.

NEW: A new type of lawfare is emerging, the Wall Street Journal's editor has warned - powerful people suing for the act of reporting. Lawsuits are arriving before a word of a story has been published, says Emma Tucker. A depressing development: theguardian.com/media/2026/may…

I second that emotion David!!

When Trump pulled out of the international nuclear agreement with Tehran in 2018, Iran lacked even a single bomb's worth of uranium. Since then, it accumulated 22,000 pounds of enriched uranium. @BlackiLi @WilliamJBroad nytimes.com/interactive/20…

I never thought I would say this but the blue flak jackets that are meant to protect journalists reporting war are now putting targets on our backs pressgazette.co.uk/news/christina…

Sunday Times chief foreign correspondent Christina Lamb calls for the creation of an independent international task force to investigate crimes against journalists

Nelson Mandela cast his vote in the first South African elections without racial discrimination #OTD in 1994. It was the first time Mandela had voted in his life, as under apartheid Black South Africans had no voting rights. Mandela received the 1993 peace prize.

Happy birthday to Charles Mingus, born on this day in 1922!

Congrats to Congress, you did it! Fewer Americans (10%) now approve of you than think we faked the moon landing (12%). The record high disapproval (86%) is driven by a huge shift from the GOP. Their net approval of the GOP-held Congress is down 89 pt from last year to -56 pt!

@annemcelvoy Andy was a huge inspiration to me as a Northern working class kid with flat vowels. The only person on network BBC TV and radio who sounded like me. His sister @LizKershawDJ won Celebrity Mastermind the other day- so a brainy couple of Lancastrians! My favourite kind. RIP

@annemcelvoy @CliveMyrieBBC The radio series when he travelled the Niger River was the best programme I ever listened on, and still is. Legend.

How sad – he was the soundtrack so to so many lives. I’ve never forgotten his explanation of why he didn’t graduate from Leeds because he was too busy being student union entz sec: “ I gave it up for music and the free electric band” theguardian.com/media/2026/apr…
