Sorry, how many seconds of income does this “penalty” equate to? Oh, it actually says in the article:
The £2m settlement agreed between Flutter and the Gambling Commission is equivalent to slightly less than two hours worth of takings for the company
So, that’s like me getting a £50 fine. For more context, the (maximum) fines for littering in central London range from around £200 to £500…
The government will reduce GCSE exam time by up to three hours per student, introduce new Year 8 tests, and teach primary pupils how to identify misinformation under sweeping curriculum reforms.
Data Science is billed as one of the “professions” most at risk from AI, so not sure how this makes sense:
“This comes alongside the government exploring a new qualification for 16-18 year olds in data science and AI, with a view to encourage more young people into science and tech careers.”

Meanwhile, in… tiny plastic solider drama? Huh. Not a sector used to controversy unless it’s wehraboos (or fascism adjacent)

Personally, if you consider death following the discharge of a firearm an “unforeseen consequence”, I think you’re doing something wrong. Seems more like an inevitable consequence to me. Bloody stupid thing to say.
Michaela YoungPlacards declare "Menstrual blood is the equivalent of semen" and all references to women are removed
Well, this was illuminating. I had no idea TERFs hated trans-men as much as they hated trans-women. Obviously (?) I’m no expert but I struggle to see how the feminist principles that identify trans-women as a further degradation of female make sense in reverse. If anything the “trans-inclusive” nature of the Vagina Museum is to support “men who mensturate” and focus on physiology rather than sex/gender. If TERFs regard trans-women as men, then surely trans-men are simply women like any other? I guess that’s the TERF objection, then; the museum should be, in their view, intrinsically and overtly about women.
“[After the pandemic] suddenly people were used to working from home and in many cases I don’t think there was that same desire to have their child in school while they were at home,” he said.
I assume this is asserted without any evidence. Clearly this person never tried to work from home with children around.
Wow. Domestic, free ranging cats are passively killing birdlife too! Who knew?
