Kudos to the Guardian for defending its investigative journalism.

The Guardian has won its High Court legal battle with the actor and director Noel Clarke, who sued us for libel over allegations of sexual misconduct. We ran two defences – truth and public interest – and won on both. judiciary.uk/wp-content/upl…



Interesting dig into a London restaurant's numbers - Wilsons, in Lewisham, brings in £700k, but close to a quarter is tax: VAT - £120k NICs - £6k Alcohol duty - ~£5k Rates (est.) - ~£25k = £156k + wages of £300k. No wonder it's so expensive to eat out thetimes.com/life-style/foo…

It’s estimated Gaza had as much, likely more, explosives dropped on it as Dresden, Hamburg and London in WW2. Little wonder it looks like this. Not filmed with anything fancy, just an iPhone through a window. There’s no avoiding the scale of destruction. itv.com/news/2025-08-0…

After 4 months of a near-total Israeli siege, Gaza’s hospitals now have wards for the malnourished children whose tiny bodies are just the width of their bones. Aid groups had warned of this for more than a year. Now a worst case scenario is upon us. washingtonpost.com/world/2025/07/…
