Healthy hospital food might be of limited value. Don't you just want people to eat while they're in there?

The Japan case is interesting, particularly dieticians in school. But over here, the reaction would probably be "You hate freedom! You aren't even a proper teacher!"

Well it would be from Katherine Birbalsingh, I don't know about the kids.

Look at Wimbledon without human line judges and tell me this: do you really want life to be perfect?

I think life (and indeed tennis) is likely to remain less than perfect for a while. Provided automation is quick and efficient, what's the problem? With football you get all sorts of subjectivity on top of VAR, which causes problems and takes ages and irritates lots of people. Nobody though has a problem with the automated goal line check, which is what an automated line judge is.

I suspect few will read this Marina Hyde column with as much pleasure as they did when she was going for the Tories:

Or indeed, the comments BTL.

Whatever you think of the proscription of Palestine Action, this was pretty predictable. George was pretty reckless the other day in urging people to come out and defy the law. They can't send us all to prison etc.

No, but if there are enough cops around, they can arrest you and you'll probably get a criminal record. Not every employer will react to that in the same way at the Guardian. I think advice along the lines of "protest but remember to box clever" might have been more appropriate. Don't stand there with a fucking sign, for starters.

It really annoys the way the Guardian and others make out that Palestine Action are just peace loving good people protesting against genocide and ignoring their history of criminality and dubious links.

The Guardian have also rather underemphasized that Bob Vylan didn't just attack the IDF. He also did a really nasty rant about a "Zionist cunt" record executive who went on about Israel all the time.

I wouldn't have thought it was too difficult to track this man down. Did he really show up for work and keep banging on about Israel? That wouldn't seem to be particularly relevant to the business of selling records. If Israel came up, perhaps Mr Vylan mentioned it first?

I wonder if Monbiot will get his collar felt for incitement?
These arrogant fuckers need to learn they're not above the law.
