This makes me so angry. I’ve known Kev since I was 18, and I’ve never seen him like this. I don’t believe in hell, but these medics and carers were in it, and the bastards who made light of this plague, denied it, called it a flu, and made it worse for everyone, you deserve it.

The killing and then butchering of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul by the govt should be reason enough not to take their money. I'm mentioning this in a blatant attempt to shame any other food journalist who considers taking this blood stained gig.

Glasgow International @GIfestival has no central theme this year, focusing instead on the collectivity of the local arts scene. The tenth edition explores the impact of conflict and colonial legacies @loubuck01

While there is no overarching theme, works dealing with the impact of conflict and the legacy of colonialism dominate the tenth edition of the city-wide event this year

@campbellclaret Honest Bob Jenrick? The man who unlawfully overturned a planning decision at the 11th hour to help his crony mate & ex-pornographer Richard Desmond avoid £50m in tax due to new legislation? Surely not!
