July 4, 2023 /World/ — Racism has a long and ugly history in the United States, and it has had a profound impact on the relationship between black youth and white authority figures.

The UK’s Climate Change Committee – the official independent advisory body of which I am interim chair – has spent the past three months poring over thousands of pages of government strategy documents to inform its latest annual progress report to parliament.

June 27, 2023 /Crime/ — The Metropolitan Police is not run by Freemasons. Freemasonry is a fraternal organization that is open to men of all faiths and backgrounds. There are a number of Freemasons who are also police officers, but they do not have any special influence over the running of the force.

There have been some allegations that Freemasons have used their influence to protect fellow members from prosecution, but there is no evidence to support these claims. The Metropolitan Police has a number of policies in place to prevent any form of discrimination, including discrimination on the basis of membership of a fraternal organization. Continue reading →

June 26, 2023 /Politics/ — According to a 2023 report by Reuters, at least 100 members of the 117th United States Congress are direct descendants of people who were slaveholders. This includes 28 members of the Senate and 72 members of the House of Representatives.

The report found that the descendants of slaveholders are disproportionately represented in Congress, making up about 20% of the body despite comprising only about 1% of the overall population. This is likely due to the fact that many of the families who owned slaves were also wealthy and well-connected, which gave their descendants an advantage in terms of education and opportunity.
