Very proud that the Sunday Times is campaigning for proper compensation for victims of the contaminated blood scandal. Many have had to apply, cap in hand, for scraps of support; others have had nothing. Victims I've interviewed have died waiting for justice

Thousands dead, 40 years of cover-up, no one has ever been held to account. It's time for justice for the infected blood victims. Delighted to announce The Sunday Times is campaigning for action. Now.

King Charles is planning a new solar farm at his Sandringham Estate.

It's amazing how fast solar power has spread across the UK.

These maps tell the story. The one with hardly any yellow dots is January 2010. One with lots is today.

I highly recommend having a good look through this brilliant piece of polling analysis by our data guru Tom Calver. So much to digest in here beyond the headline results. This will be updated every week so worth bookmarking.

Why we dream, what our dreams can mean, and most importantly, how to control the content of our dreams. All this and more in my interview with neuroscientist and brain surgeon Rahul Jandial, who believes we sleep *so* we can deam. The Times and The Sunday Times ⁩ 👇

Great interview with the admirable Caroline Lucas
'A country without a coherent story about who and what it is can never thrive and prosper”

“It certainly cannot rise to the existential threats of our time — the climate and nature emergencies.”

Interview: In the rationalist age, our belief in the afterlife is dwindling. Yet we are still in denial about our mortality. Now, instead of priests, we turn to techbros who think ageing can be reversed. If only it were that easy, says Venki Ramakrishnan👇
