Currently having a great week of work experience at the Bracknell News. Here is an article I’ve written on local MP, James Sunderland, and his plans to improve train services.

about eating vegan in Poland. Great to be published in a legitimate travel outlet but still room for improvement in terms of my writing!
My recent article on the disdain shown by modern British politicians towards the electorate, as shown by their numerous and demonstrable lies.

A beautiful day in Malaga spent on the beach and eating steak concludes. Time to get back to the airport for the long and treacherous journey back to the South-West.

in the shambles that is Brexit I offer you a chance for redemption. A friend and I are doing Jailbreak this weekend to raise money for charity. It involves us getting as far away from Exeter University without spending any of our own money. 1/3
My opinion piece as to why deep-rooted East-Asian values that stem from Confucius have led to them dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic better than the West. For those wondering how South Korea, my current home, is dealing with the virus, follow

“The British government has failed to deal with Covid-19 and its citizens have paid the price.”
My analysis as to why Britain has 15,570% more Covid-19 deaths than Korea, despite having a 9-day head start.
Old people are lovely. We’ve had a successful few hours of fundraising mainly financed by the elderly but some great student donations in there too!! Going to leave Exeter in a few hours. Watch this space.

#Tiananmen
anniversary candle light memorial will not be allowed to go ahead. Police have denied permission as it would represent "a major threat to the life and and health of the general public". Organisers say this is an excuse
Disagree it wasn’t right to take it down in that way. Failure of local leaders to remove it in previous years necessitates the action of BLM. Despite this, I have been very impressed by the leader of the opposition as of late.
Edward Colston was responsible for 100,000 people being moved from Africa to the Caribbean as slaves. 20,000 died en route.
The statue shouldn't have been taken down in the way it was. But it should have been removed from our streets a long time ago.
Not to fear. We’ve been on the phone to Flybe and they’ve refunded us. Panic over. My face has returned from a deep red to its usual slightly beige with a tinge of pink. Hero to Zero back to Cal in 30mins.
been punished, Matt Hancock is heavily implicated in cronyism. What is most alarming in all these developments is the total breakdown of accountability. This government has walked from controversy to blunder throughout its time yet they have seen no backlash. Thus, this crime
bill they are looking to pass tomorrow is something that everyone should be alarmed by as it severely limits the public’s ability to yield accountability. This is especially pronounced as the central government at present seems to have little interest in movements driving for

you mentioned the vanity of politicians last week and I’ve heard you say in the past that, after 10 years in the commons, many of your colleagues had lost basic human social functions. What do you put this down to?
The Chinese government has begun paying British YouTubers and influencers to produce pro-China propaganda.
The videos include clips praising the camps in Xinjiang and referring to pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong as "brainwashed" by the west.
On 3 June, Boris Johnson pledged that 100% of in-person tests would be turned around within 24 hours by the end of June. The latest data shows that the current figure is 15.1% - a record low.
Considering the disconnect between the masses and political institutions feeding populism across Europe, you’d think that creating a better feedback mechanism would be an important reform for the EU. Especially as a common criticism of it is being ‘unaccountable bureaucrats’.
Currently sat in the waiting terminal of Victoria Street Coach station awaiting a much famed MegaBus. Can’t wait for this 6 hour journey of comfort, high quality care and above all a whiff-free zone.
Civil servants vetting a drug company boss for an honour failed to notice that he had been accused, in a Times investigation, of increasing the price of drugs charged to the NHS by 2500%.
They then ignored the information when it emerged in final checks.

To what extent are superheroes a mirror for dominant ideas in society? Thinking of shows like The Boys reflecting modern anxieties about corporate greed as much as The Avengers reflecting western exceptionalism.
Significant contrast to the slatings Hancock has so often received throughout the pandemic. Although, I suspect he will need to make his persona much more likeable if he wants to achieve the popularity of Sunak and Boris.
