God she’s bad.

I have an other idea, that saves even more effort in dealing with the resident troll. Saves your Letraset too.
Just wondering, have you previously honed your 'HONK' gambit in your academic work? I guess that at least it would prove you're not trusting AI with writing your feedback.

'Cornerstone' by Arctic Monkeys is perhaps the only song in existence that references Letraset. Factoid of the day there for you.

Depends what metric you take.
If you take, say, morals, logic, consistency, empathy, persuasive use of language to help build a better fairer world for everyone, etc.,you have a point.
If you take the metric of how many likes, reshares and supportive comments she gets from paid-for blue ticks and bots on X, then she probably thinks she's doing just fine.

Last sheets I bought were Caslon Antique for doing some posters about farmhouse cider. 40 years ago.

Astonishing that we have reached a point where the Leader of a major political party can say "not all cultures are equally valid" and very few people raise an eyebrow. Something tells me Chris Mason will not be scrutinizing this on the 10 o'clock news this evening.

FWIW, the social-media-isation of politics is one reason it's gone so very wrong.
As a corrective, I've just starting watching this programme on Jim Callahan. It feels like it could be from 150 years ago. Not seen it before.

Two things remarkable about that - done in one take, I think without a full autocue script, and I think Walden's take on Callahan's sadness at his failure as PM and Leader of the Labour Party while trying to do the 'right thing' is powerful.
TBH, not sure what it says about modern politics, but still an interesting watch in historical terms.

Anybody, whatever their real or alleged offending, is entitled to a lawyer. Lawyers act for their client not their client's reputation or history.
Labour should have more sense than to ape the Tories on this except perhaps to point out the hypocrisy.

I don't think the dispute is about representation, but about the implications of a high ranking member of the opposition having this kind of relationship with a Russian oligarch adjacent to Putin.
I know about the taxi rank rule meaning that a barrister must take the next case in line, but it isn't clear to me if that's how this particular barrister ended up with this case through that rule.
