Pity the schoolchildren returning to their prison camps this September, says Joanna Gray. Most will now be entering premises entirely surrounded with high security fences ? another sign our high trust society is gone.

It was the hottest summer on record, claims the Met Office. Really? Not according to our most reliable data, says Paul Homewood. 2018 and 1976 were warmer, and only two days topped 30?C, compared with nine in 1976.

I've had queries about this: meetings open to everyone, gender-wise.

The second meeting is on June 29th. Speaking will be Mairead Corrigan Maguire, Nobel Laureate and Peace People activist, and Andrea Needham of the Seeds of Hope Ploughshares. The Seeds of Hope women were famously acquitted of doing damage to fighter jet bound for East Timor, and their 10th anniversary is this year.

More details to follow on the events calendar about this second meeting.
