Grenfell by Steve McQueen @theBluecoat @tateliverpool Powerful. Poignant. Heart-wrenching. Emotional. Especially as we approach the 9th anniversary of this tragedy with still no justice💚 It's on until June 21st 2026. #JusticeForGrenfell 💚

This is awful. The last ever Denby Pottery going to the kiln. Why is there not uproar? Where’s the government in this?? We all have Denby in our homes, in family heirlooms, as our history and now it’s closing through lack of support, such a sad sad day. #SaveDenby @denbypottery

Southgate Enterprise I always think about Star Trek when I visit Southgate London Underground station. The station building & the outside benches remind me of the Starship Enterprise. The cut out didn't work with the main station which already looks like a classic flying saucer

Excellent question...

Me too.....

For fifty years, she trusted him. Then the police found the videos. Gisèle Pelicot believed she knew her life. A long marriage, three children, grandchildren, and a quiet home in Provence. To anyone looking from the outside, they were a perfect couple. Solid. Enviable. Then the signs began. Unexplained exhaustion. Memory gaps. Clumps of hair falling out. Physical problems no doctor could explain. Test after test—no answers. One day, she looked him in the eyes. — “Are you drugging me?” He was offended. Denied everything. And she… believed him. After fifty years together, how do you doubt? In November 2020, everything collapsed. Her husband, Dominique Pelicot, was arrested for filming women under their skirts in a supermarket. A disturbing crime, but one that seemed far removed from their private life. Then the police analyzed his devices. And they found something unimaginable. Thousands of videos. Gisèle. In their bed. Unconscious. Violated. By him. And by dozens of men he had invited himself. For nearly ten years, Dominique had been dissolving drugs into her food and drinks. He made her lose consciousness. Then he assaulted her. And he didn’t stop there. He entered online forums, contacted men willing to take part. Around fifty responded. Ordinary men. Fathers. Professionals. “Normal” people. They entered that home. Abused an unconscious woman. Were filmed. And then returned to their lives. As if nothing had happened. She remembered nothing. She would wake up exhausted, confused. And he would talk about stress. Menopause. Fatigue. The man she trusted the most… was the one destroying her. When she discovered the truth, her life split in two. It wasn’t just betrayal. It was an entire existence built on a lie. Fifty-one men were charged. French law offered her protection and anonymity. A closed trial. She could disappear. No one would judge her. But Gisèle did something no one expected. She said no. At seventy-two, she chose to show herself. To say her name. To make everything public. — “The shame must change sides.” For months, she attended every hearing. She watched the footage. Listened to the justifications. Some claimed they thought she was pretending. Others argued that the husband’s consent was enough. No one wanted to face the simplest truth. An unconscious person cannot give consent. On December 19, 2024, the verdict came. All were convicted. Dominique received twenty years. He will likely die in prison. Outside the courthouse, Gisèle spoke calmly. — “I wanted society to see.” And then she turned to other women: — “You are not alone. This is my fight too.” Her voice spread across France—and beyond. People began to speak about chemical submission, about consent, about responsibility, about a culture that for too long has asked victims to stay silent. She did the opposite. She took silence… and destroyed it. She could have hidden. Disappeared. Protected herself. Instead, she stayed. In front of everyone. And she said: look. Look at what happens when no one is looking. She didn’t seek justice only for herself. She changed something for millions. She gave shame back to where it truly belongs. Not to those who survive. But to those who harm. At seventy-two, Gisèle Pelicot showed a simple and powerful truth: it is never too late to reclaim your voice. And to remind the world… where the blame truly lies.

A court in Italy has declared that Netflix's recent price hikes from 2017 to 2024 were illegal and enacted without proper warning to customers. Netflix will be ordered to lower its prices in the country and many Italian users may be entitled to compensation from the streamer.

George Michael died in his sleep on Christmas Day 2016. The world mourned the voice, the music, the icon. Then something unusual happened. In the days that followed, ordinary people began to speak — not celebrities or publicists, but volunteers, charity workers, waitresses, and strangers who had quietly carried a secret for years. One by one, they stepped forward to describe the same man: someone who had spent decades giving away millions of pounds in near-total secrecy, and who had actively fought against anyone finding out. A woman appeared on the TV game show Deal or No Deal and mentioned she needed £15,000 for IVF treatment. George Michael was watching. The next day, he quietly phoned and paid the full amount. She didn't know who her donor was. She only found out after his death, when the story broke online. A volunteer at a London homeless shelter noticed a familiar face one evening — serving food, cleaning tables, blending in. It was George Michael. He had asked the staff not to tell anyone he was there. He came back more than once. "I've never told anyone," the volunteer later posted. "He asked we didn't. That's who he was." Every Easter, DJ Mick Brown would run a charity appeal at Capital Radio for Help A London Child. Every year, without fail, a call would come in at 3:30 in the afternoon. A £100,000 donation. No fuss. No publicity. George would give and hang up. After his mother died, he organized a private concert — entirely unannounced — for the NHS nurses who had cared for her. It was not filmed. It was not advertised. It was simply a thank you, offered directly to the hands that had shown kindness when fame could offer none. He donated royalties from "Jesus to a Child" to children's charities for years. The Terrence Higgins Trust, which he supported for decades, confirmed he gave generously and consistently — insisting his name never appear in any fundraising materials. Childline's founder later revealed he had donated millions, entirely anonymously, over the course of his life. He struggled, too. Publicly and painfully. Addiction. Loss. The relentless scrutiny of fame. But those who knew him said the struggles never hardened him. If anything, they deepened his understanding of what it means to need help — and to receive it without strings. In 1999, a journalist managed to get him to comment on the rumors of his giving. He said simply: "I really don't like to talk about the amount I've given to charity over the years. I know it's very substantial. I don't exactly know what it is, and I don't really like to linger on it." After his death, the full shape of what he had done became visible — not because he wanted it known, but because the people he had helped could no longer stay silent. Patients who received care. Students who stayed in school. Families who kept their homes. Children whose charities kept their doors open. George Michael understood something about kindness that most of us only glimpse: that it loses something the moment it starts seeking applause. He gave without witnesses. The world found out anyway. And maybe that's exactly as it should be.
