Whilst we often feel overwhelmed with trying to know everything, this image is a brilliant reminder that we know more than we believe and actually, knowing everything is impossible. Not sure who created this graphic, please credit, I absolutely love it! #imposterSyndrome

This is an absolute travesty of justice. The establishment message is very clear "put up and shut up or else". How any journalist not screaming about this from rooftops sleep at night?

Did you see Dr Who Spyfall when she encounters a young woman named Ada Gordon and escapes to an 1834 science fair? The Doctor realises she'll become more familiar as Ada Lovelace when she marries William King, later Earl of Lovelace, in 1835. verdict.co.uk/doctor-who-spy… #BCSLL20

Ive been predicting that COVID-19 surveillance will be particularly intense on campus ; but I hadn't joined it up to preCOVID datification and profiling( see work in US on free MOOCs and their use to gather data). Next ; Google provides the software free and takes the data 😂

In the UK the number of cases rose rapidly. But the public – and authorities – are only learning this now because these cases were only published now as a backlog. The reason was apparently that the database is managed in Excel and the number of columns had reached the maximum.

My latest: The last decade has been about discrediting, disgracing and demonising Julian Assange. Today's court ruling denying his extradition to the US – though hugely welcome – should be seen as a continuation of that process jonathan-cook.net/blog/2021-01-0…

One day journalists will look back on this time and wish they had stood up for #Assange. The price of not doing so is huge. Their profession has been reduced to mere govt propaganda.

In the The Observer today, our general secretary Jo Grady says: 🔴There must be no return to in-person teaching at universities this academic year. 🔴We will support branches to ballot for industrial action against any unsafe on-campus activity. theguardian.com/education/2021…

Solidarity with our firefighters! They keep us safe every day of the year. They have a right to demand we keep them as far as possible too! ✊🏼

Yesterday I got arrested whilst filming a Just Stop Oil supporter holding a banner on the pavement near the coronation route. I'm a filmmaker and had my @BECTU press accreditation visible around my neck. Police deemed this to be "conspiracy to commit a public nuisance".
