Support Afghan Girls Through Online Education WDI Afghanistan online learning program provide as volunteer education opportunities for Afghan girls as they cannot go to school due to the Taliban restrictions. "Every girl should get the opportunity to go to school and learn," said

Khelif knew. His team knew. IOC MEDIA knew. BBC News (UK) knew. And still he was allowed him to get into a ring with women, beat them up and steal an Olympic gold medal. No paywall. Medical report leaked that ‘proves Imane Khelif is biological male’ telegraph.co.uk/gift/061499638…

A small additional point about the *complete* corruption of the women's boxing at #Paris24 The boxing was a knockout competition. Angela Carini was knocked out by Khelif in the first round. She didn't get close to the medal bouts, so she can't be awarded a medal. We just

Very much worth listening (again) to the brilliant Emma Hilton making developmental biology so clear! Emma Hilton

Good piece here by Sonia Sodha "Instead of confronting their free speech issues, universities have been lobbying ministers not to implement the Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Act, an eminently sensible piece of legislation"

I expect the misleading headline and first para of this article to be urgently corrected. Trans people's rights haven't been reduced and I didn't at any time say that they had. I said that trans people have been lied to about what their rights are. theguardian.com/society/2025/j…

If the Guardian is prepared to shamelessly lie about something like this, what else does it lie about? Where does someone on the liberal left go to for reliable news? The FT? That's a paradox.

From pioneering research to modern policy insights: Lucinda Platt shares how she first got "hooked" on the Office for National Statistics (ONS) LS in 2003, using it to explore social mobility across ethnic groups.

Important news - long live the Census!

The vote was lost - not a surprise. A majority of 55 is down to 23, a net switch of 16 people, only 2.5% of MPs despite so much debate & challenge. Suggests most had made their minds up by the previous vote, despite protestations of looking for greater assurance. Short 🧵

I'm very pleased to share this report. Many thanks to all the academics who shared their stories.

Very encouraging to see LSE flying the true flag of a university at the end of the videos it is putting out.

There are three ponds on the heath: men's, women's and mixed. Space for everyone's needs to be met. Yet the City of London Corporation are flouting the law. They are a wealthy organisation and unaccountable to local residents and users of Hampstead Heath. Citizens are forced to

The Chief Constable of Northumbria Police "proceeded on the basis of an error of law". That's, y'know, pretty bad.

This is a cracking tweet. “They didn’t tear Sandie apart on Upton’s direction because he says he’s a woman. They did it because they know he’s a man.”

For example, allowing a staff network to publish stuff on an employers' website suggesting people are bigots for holding views that represent judicial decisions contributes to a hostile environment and maybe should be discouraged. Not looking at any employers in particular.
