That doesn't mean don't wear your mask or show your pass, or whatever, it means don't forget how and why power might benefits from overstating how safe you are in the places where you produce capital, or where you consume goods and services.

Racing Needs To Up Its Game
I have been very quiet about the whole Bryony/Robbie situation as I have been waiting to see what happened, not knowing first hand what had gone on and hearing many different accounts of it from...
1. Weeks after Russia report warned of Russia's dangerous, growing influence, Boris Johnson rewards his patron & newspaper editor, Lebedev, with a peerage giving him direct lifetime access to Britain's power networks. It's a gigantic stuff-you to the country.
Robert Jenrick back in the headlines, this time over "pork barrell" claims thetimes.co.uk/edition/news/m…
Johnson and Cummings are asking to be trusted, but they've spent years undermining public trust when it suited them. As I wrote in Oct, voters taught to suspect politicians will turn on them when they fail. Cummings bred anger; now it's targeting him thetimes.co.uk/article/tories…
Sounds suspiciously like the original pitch for 'Breaking Bad'.
Caring for your wife and child is not a crime
Mr Johnson said two nurses - Jenny from New Zealand and Luis from Portugal - stood by his bedside for 48 hours at the most critical time. Matt Hancock added that staff at St Thomas' would "have cared for him as they would have cared for anybody" bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…
I've emailed my MP to ensure motor neurone disease is added to the list of 'extremely vulnerable persons' as a matter of urgency. Help protect people with #MND from #coronavirus #Covid19 by emailing your MP too. ecampaigns.mndassociation.org/page/58148/act…
And so it continues. Today the UK is at 233 #COVID19 deaths, guess how many deaths Italy had 14 days ago? Yes, they had 233 also! Today, Italy reported 793 deaths. That's what's ahead for the UK. And yet in towns across the country today people freely mingle together. JUST STOP
So much of what not to say has been said to me. But read on for help if you don’t know what to say to your grieving friend/relative...and it’s not “At least he/she is not suffering any more...”
Knowing how to comfort someone who is recovering from the loss of a loved one may not come naturally. Here's what to say (and what not to say). nyti.ms/2ZnWdRu
30 years working in criminal justice Half that time at Chief Officer level Having overseen prosecution of perhaps a million cases Worked with dozens of ministers of all parties I have never felt need to say this: This Prime Minister (& Home Secretary) are both lying to us #Marr
There's a lot to be upset about in Britain today, but for me the existence of laws forbidding people like Geoff Whaley, who has motor neurone disease, to end their lives decently and peacefully among their friends in their own surroundings is a particular cause for anger.
I met Khashoggi a few times, including earlier this year. I could never work out just how much of a dissident he was. Istanbul answered that. HIs final piece for the Washington Post published today. wapo.st/2q082wa
This exchange between @AndrewMarr9 and @theresa_may needs reading (via @MarrShow, @MichaelPDeacon)
From last week’s Private Eye. In case anyone missed it. Brexit asset stripping at its boldest. Travesty.
This piece by @davidallengreen gets more relevant with every passing clowncar.
