A wonderful lunchtime walk through campus today for our #MIEGreenWeek Scéal Trail. Dr Claire Dunne regaled us with tales of fairy folk, wise women and warriors, inspired by our beautiful Irish landscape

Rachel Reeves holds newts in contempt, it seems. So I thought I'd post this glorious painting of a "lion of the duckweed" by Jackie Morris + my paean to these "kings of the pond", both from The Lost Words. Newt-lovers, unite!

I increasingly think that tech companies, specifically, should be subject to a punitive carbon tax. If you want to build inaccurate plagiarism machines, fine, but you should be strongly discouraged from warming the planet as a result. No one *needs* this extra fossil fuel use
