heute vor 97 Jahren, am 31.8.1928, wurde "Die Dreigroschenoper" auf unserer Bühne unter turbulenten Umständen uraufgeführt. sie wurde ein riesiger Erfolg und machte Bertolt Brecht und Kurt Weill weltberühmt. zu lange unerwähnt blieb die Mitarbeit von Elisabeth Hauptmann!

Desperately weak chairing by Matt Chorley on Newsnight this evening. I’m left incredulous. Allowed the Reform spokesman to bully Thangham Debbonaire out of the exchanges with a series of mini speeches. Paxman, Wark or Matlis would have acted. Not Chorley.

🔄 Reversing girls' rights just doesn’t make sense. It leaves girls vulnerable and drives inequality – which benefits no one. Let’s stand together and prioritise girls’ rights for a more equal world. ✨

A wonderful counter to the glib cliched pieces that have appeared in the Guardian now for decades....interesting so few write about older people like myself been here on and off since 1979...also for dissident images see Ottinger's Berlin trilogy
My latest essay for @thebafflermag, which elaborates and expands on the piece I wrote about Jews in Germany for the magazine last year, via a number of woeful depictions of Berlin in recent Anglophone literature
