‘Heckler’ is Andrew Boff, chair of London Assembly since 2023. He was
talking quite quietly: said Braverman was ‘talking rubbish’ about gender ideology and called speech a “homophobic rant” Was escorted out.

I was stood next to the heckler.

In quite a soft tone he said “there’s no such thing as gender ideology” as Braverman was listing things she thought “woke” institutions were adopting. Security immediately swarmed him and escorted him out.

Jeremy Hunt begins his speech on a stage set very much made for TV. (That tiny white blob behind him says Long Term Decisions For a Brighter Future).

Straying off her brief alert! Kemi Badenoch rails against councils introducing a four day week: “This is an example of what happens if certain types of ideology are left unchecked.”

Per Sam Dumitriu
Even if the original estimate of HS2’s cost had been correct, it would have been more than double the price per mile of the high-speed line between Naples and Bari, and 3.7 times more expensive than the link between Tours and Bordeaux

Throwback! 10 years ago this month I interviewed a man who’d just bought a thing called an electric car

'Every time I plug it in people come up and ask me questions … the number of people walking round it scratching their heads was like a comedy show.'
