    Blimey. Israeli "democracy" makes the rest of the world's democratic choices look sane and healthy. What an awful set of choices. The only bit of good news is renewed Palestinian activism on a global scale.

    As someone who actually read the whole interview and the context in which she spoke about marriage, I thought Malala came across the same way many young, college educated women do: questioning the choices and expectations put before them after graduating.

    The Taliban bombed a young girls' schools last month killing over 80 kids. I understand that we who are hyper-educated and living in safe settler-states can easily dismiss it, but Malala's struggle for women’s education against the people who shot her in the face (!) matters.

    Neither Boris Johnson -Eton,or Rishi Sunak - Winchester - have any understanding or interest in public education. Neither would consider earmarking £22 a head per year for their own kids’ extra schooling post Covid.But for state kids it’s fine.Of course Sir Kevin Collins resigned
