Nine years ago Emma Thompson spoke to @maitlis for #Newsnight on the predator de jour Weinstein. Me Too was supposed to be the watershed.
We know how that turned out.
This week female execs have gone from Warner Bros, Netflix & Paramount.
It wasn’t just Weinstein, it wasn’t just Brand, it isn’t just Gisele Pelicot.
It’s systemic misogyny.
I'm impressed with my un intentional colour coordination out on today's run!
Who knew a Duran Duran tour shirt would be the answer? #duranduranfan

1 in 4 women in the UK have been raped or sexually assaulted since the age of 16
6 in 7 rapes against women in the UK are carried out by someone they know
5 in 6 women who are raped in the UK don’t report it to the police
Fewer than 3 in 100 rapes recorded by UK police in 2024 resulted in someone being charged that same year
It is an abhorrent crime committed by cowards. Every perpetrator put in prison is a blessing.

So let me get this straight.
Suella (Conservative Home Secretary 2022 - 2023) felt so strongly about the betrayal of the Boris Wave that she stood as a Conservative candidate in 2024 and then sat as a Conservative MP for a further 18 months before jumping ship.
Stacks up 🤔
The Boriswave was the greatest betrayal by the last Conservative government.
It’s why I left the Conservatives.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Braverman served as Attorney General under Johnson and Home Secretary 2022-23 amid the immigration surge called the Boriswave. She remained a Conservative until defecting to Reform in Jan 2026 after the 2024 election.

My OH is still waiting - he could have driven in April but still no licence.
His application began processing in Feb, in Oct contacted by DVLA because the original information had gone over their 6 month limit. The service is not fit for purpose, appalling.

I don’t think I ever believed I’d see a newspaper paragraph like this: President Trump ‘said he would welcome immigrants from Denmark but not from Norway “because I didn’t get the Nobel Prize, so I don’t want anybody from Norway”.’

Barack Obama est sans doute l’un des plus grands orateurs au monde. La façon dont il conclut son intervention lors de ce rally est tout simplement magistrale ! 🎯
Do love the diversity of an Art Gallery - Pre-Raphaelite, Joe Lycett and Cold War Steve all on display in Birmingham.
Shafted by England now Lancashire - the best ever bowler this country has ever produced and he’s been treated appallingly.
Lancashire Cricket can confirm that, following a remarkable 25-year association with the Red Rose, Sir James Anderson’s playing career with the Club will come to an end at the conclusion of his current contract.

Neither man could possibly have imagined that just one generation later, Europe would be defending itself against both of their future successors.
What is happening is truly unfathomable.
