So last year I refused a bunch of interview requests about my review of Jo Maugham's book since I didn't want to beat a dead fox (you see what I did here). But since he insists on libeling me here's the review again. thetimes.co.uk/article/dc992f…
A true heroine
Good advice to friends
@chinnychick My brother-in-law was with 45 Commando. He came back on the Canberra. Sadly he went on to take his life. More service personnel took their own lives than died in conflict.
Tributes have been paid to DAUK founding member and past chair Dr Jenny Vaughan. @djnicholl “She had an innate sense of curiosity and a desire to stand up for those without a voice." @helenfernandes1 “She has touched so many lives in such meaningful and positive ways."

doesn’t matter whether you agree with JK Rowling’s opinions or not, her challenge to the Scottish Government’s dangerously illiberal Hate Crime Act is a courageous step on behalf of anyone who truly cares about free speech and I am grateful to her.
DAUK is deeply saddened to hear the news that our dearest friend and colleague Dr Jenny Vaughan has died. Jenny was a founding member of DAUK, a past chair, and absolutely lived and breathed the Association.

@JohnHyde1982 This is bodyline stuff from @edwardhenry1’s first ball. Exceptional.
There was a stark moment at the Post Office inquiry when barrister Edward Henry KC accused former Post Office executive Angela van den Bogerd of lying throughout her two days of evidence. Latest 🔗 trib.al/vjx4cz6
The PO hearing really does demonstrate what Arendt called "the banality of evil". Petty functionaries promoted past their competence, grubbily scrabbling for paychecks/bonuses, and hiding behind the rotten conventions of their organisation, as if that somehow exonerates them.

If you can, I'd urge you to watch the cross-examination of Angela van den Bogerd by Edward Henry KC from just before lunch. Comprehensive, devastating and eviscerating. AVDB had no response. #PostOfficeInquiry youtube.com/watch?v=MhwYjr…
Make your concave curve an upward sloping one - smile!
Counsel to the Inquiry, Jason Beer KC, has been an absolute tour de force throughout and his cross-examination of Angela van den Bogerd today was no exception. Much to be learned about the art of effective advocacy. #PostOfficeInquiry youtube.com/clip/UgkxKezK9…
Farewell to my father’s closest friend
In 1989 I went for an interview with a Labour MP. We discussed the Anglican church service, about which I knew a bit and he knew a lot. I got the job over the naifs who tried to talk politics. Frank Field became my boss and in time my friend. Fare thee well, Frank.
Very sad news about Frank Field. To lose him and Patrick Cormack in the same year is to have the left and right columns that kept up a vision of a distinct Anglican social and political polity vanish. With no obvious replacements in national life, it feels like the end of an era.
Fascinating paean to English language.
In 1977, Jorge Luis Borges, one of the most influential 20th c. Spanish-language writers, told William F. Buckley (whose first language was Spanish) his reasons for feeling, age 78, that English was 'far finer' than his native tongue. Right or wrong, I love his savor for language
@RajSKohliexcop Let’s you and I take a walk through London next St George’s. Because it’s our country too.
Sir Andrew Davis (1944-1924). Sadness at his death is tempered by reading the universal warmth, affection and respect of so many tributes to a much-loved musician. And what a legacy he leaves behind him for us to enjoy! #RIP
Brilliantly, and I think correctly, argued.
