BBC covers story of 300 schoolgirls being kidnapped as its 13th item. Imagine where it would out that story if they were white.

So sad to hear of Bob Fisk’s premature death. He was one of the best Northern Ireland correspondents at the height of the troubles. A great loss to journalism.

A good piece on HBO’s Chernobyl and its scientific illiteracy, not to say questionable ethics: forbes.com/sites/michaelshel… . But beware: Forbes takes Online advertising to new depths.

Innumerate @bbc again crying wolf on crime, using discredited ‘recorded crime’ (not been official stats since 2014). CSEW shows 9% fall.

Harriet Harman good on WATO but Labour ministers also refused to promote sprinklers and #GrenfellTower is the result. Now let's follow Wales

Sad that Grenfell Tower refurb last year didn't include sprinklers. Low cost but govt ministers and others still don't appreciate the need.

Terrible fatal fire in care home in Herts. Why no sprinklers (as is law in Wales)? Because gvt think not cost-effective for we English. Sad.
