My department is hiring a lecturer or senior lecturer in philosophy. It's an open call in terms of research specialization, but we're keen to hire someone whose teaching/research speaks to PPE in some way. This is a great job in a great department. Please help me spread the word!

11,800+. That’s how many calls we’ve answered since Dobbs. Each one is a person navigating fear, bad info, or a legal hurdle for their pregnancy, abortion, birth, or parenting.

A 2026 Repro Legal Helpline Report graphic with a red background and a small purple phone ringing icon in the lower left corner. In the lower right corner is the Repro Legal Helpline logo. Centered and to the left is black, bold text that reads "Since the Dobbs decision the Helpline has responded to 11,800+ calls."

New Stewart Lee column. '“President Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth”. To be honest, I preferred Jesus when he just healed lepers, made a small amount of fish feed more people....'

Devastatingly sad. Every Labour MP should be forced to read this. In fact, every MP, who rushed back to Parliament to vote to save one steel mill, whilst hastening the collapse of dozens of universities - and harming the students, staff, communities and economies universities sustain and support

'When it opened, the campus housed a GP surgery and a new dental clinic offering free treatment to local people. This was followed later by the forum – a library and art gallery shared by the university and local people.' 1/2
