More than 1000 views in 5 days for the chat and audience Q&A with Ros Atkins on news. Is it possible to be impartial? Has social media destroyed journalism? (Oh, and why are all Ros’s shirts blue?) youtube.com/live/wMX8uKc-_…

A refreshing performance by David Miliband in Cambridge tonight. Whatever your views on politics, it’s so much healthier to look to the long term and not be driven by daily headlines. Question is whether Westminster and the media have any interest in a space for deeper thinking.

Listening to Sir Patrick Vallance giving evidence to UK Covid-19 Inquiry.
Am struck by how much his evidence highlights the need for us to improve scientific literacy across society, and the importance of ensuring accessible communication of science to non-specialist audiences.

Mightily impressed by the Sri Lankan fusion food at Coconut, the new restaurant from my former Selwyn College colleague Komala (centre). Well worth a visit - or a takeaway - if you’re in Cambridge. coconutcambridge.co.uk

The saddest of reasons for gathering but a service also full of music and laughter, ending with applause and cheering. “A British success story” - his sisters. “The best of us” - Tim Davie. All that, and so much more.

What is so impressive about Obama is his readiness to acknowledge complexity, and his underlining that social media is a poor route for truth. Not just something for politicians to note, but journalists too.

A Channel 4 News report claimed that “Muslims make up a majority in more than 30 constituencies”.

This isn’t correct—people identifying as Muslim are the majority in three Parliamentary constituencies in England and Wales.
