A pack of Welsh butter. Tye brand name is Shirgar.
Bought some butter today. Should I be worried?
An incredibly lifelike illustration of Paddington Bear, official psychopomp to the British royal family, gently escorting a man in top hat and tails (carrying a Puzza Express takeout) to Belmarsh
Ok I have far too much to do today to spend more than 2 minutes on this but here’s my political cartoon of the day, please enjoy
Homepage from The Guardian announcing the arrest of Andrew. The picture shows what seems to be a smiling plain clothed police officer. I have added the speech bubble containing the words "Best Day Ever!"
The Laughing Policeman.
What we call a crime and how the media reports it effects our attitude towards the crime itself, the victims of it and even those charged with investigating it.
Our latest episode looks at it through the lense of financial crime.
"Scam" or "Fraud"?

Offshore Jim is a disgrace to the club I love.
Manchester United - the clue is in the name - is a truly international institution, built on immigration.
To fellow Reds impacted by his bile, you are not alone.
He might own a part of the club but we - together - are the club.
I tried to take a photo of a grasshopper on my windshield, but now it looks like a gigantic bug destroying the town.
She did and it turned out to be a classic "pump and dump" in every sense of the phrase.
In this week’s episode of the podcast we ask: when faced with a potentially dangerous situation, at what point do the public think it’s right to call the police?
Do different demographics assess risk differently, and what are the triggers that motivate dialling 999?

When you consider how obsessed he was with Scotland, he didn't see much of it.
This is one of those pieces of footage that defines a place in time.
Big Lamb are behind it all... or as they're more commonly known Sheep.
Board of Peace??? Are you sure he didn’t say Bored of Peace!!!!!
I’m available for satirical writing work.
i didn't know you could stand up in front of everyone at Davos and say whatever the fuck you liked
I'd probably swap-out JD Salinger for Don Revie... just for a giggle.
Happy to. I'll email you later.
In the new episode of A Perspective on Crime, we explore a recently published piece of work by Dr Susie Hulley "The Moral Weight of Murder”
Dr Hulley's work examines the moral burden of murder and how participants’ interpretations of their actions influence their rehabilitation.

I think that specific set will be back in business soon.
I read this advice a while ago and now use it when recording my scripted podcast.
Instead of clapping - which to be honest I felt a bit of an idiot doing - I got a clicker used for dog training.

The new episode of A Perspective on Crime has been published.
In it I explore #research which questions whether the global #policing of #money-laundering is nothing more than a monitoring exercise and whether #criminology is addressing this issue with the urgency it deserves?

Donald Trump's fortune before entering office was built on licensing his name.
That's what he is doing suing the BBC.
He's licensing his name to Reform to put Farage in Downing Street & instead of taking a fee upfront, he's taking an equity stake in the country.
I bow to nobody in my love for the BBC.
They are however an institution which has repeatedly turned a blind-eye to inappropriate behaviour and at the same time acted as a status-incubator for some of the most corrupting influences in public life.
Robbie Gibb will be thrilled.
A new episode of the podcasts has just dropped.
I look at a paper called "Investigation of human DNA transfer during mock dog- napping" authored by Heidi Monkman and colleagues at Flinders University.

We know he lies, that's a given now but the identical shot, in the same exact location and the same journalists presents it here so powerfully.
