Patrick Vallance(Science Minister): “Brexit was definitely a problem for science. We were part of a very successful European funding scheme with very large collaborations across Europe. You can’t do the type of science that everyone’s trying to do & make progress in isolation..."

That's the title race over. Man City will be the first club to win four English top-flight titles in a row, and six titles in seven years. Two punishments for non-compliance / cheating, and 115 charges pending on the way.

I'm getting a bit bored of people asking me if I've found any TV work yet as the answer is no.

As you watch the Aurora this evening, it’s worth reflecting that you’re getting a rare direct glimpse of the power of Nature. Those charged particles causing the atmosphere to glow came from a sunspot complex 17 times the diameter of Earth and traveled across 90 million miles at a million miles an hour. Without our magnetic field to protect us, our atmosphere would have been lost to space long ago. Those colours in the sky are Nature reminding us that we’re very lucky to be here amidst the violence. And perhaps therefore also reminding us not to shite it all up :-)
