I can't believe I'm sharing this, but here is 13 year old Tom, vlogging on his youtube channel from his bedroom. This a video from a channel long since shut down, from the year of our lord 2010. None of it is my proudest work - but I got better as I got older. I learned skills and made friends, some of whom I still know to this day. Making these silly videos over time taught me so much about video editing, talking to cameras, and being effective on social media. I failed a lot before I got better. But I had the chance to try. I developed skills that have helped me enormously in adult life. Had I not been able to make silly videos on youtube - and get motivated/excited about thousands of people watching them - my subsequent life would have certainly looked very different. Some might argue that would have been for the better, but it would have certainly been for the more boring.

Pakistan has some cheek to suggest the Pakistani Rochdale grooming gang rapist Shabir Ahmed was "spoiled" in Britain. His specific form of group-based sexual abuse is not a British problem. It is an imported problem. And if Pakistan can't accept that, there should be sanctions.

"This is a grievous breach of national security." Olly Robbins calls for "prosecutions" as says he is "deeply concerned" about the leaks from the UKSV process, pointing the finger at Downing Street. The system "does not work" if it leaks, he says. "That trust, once gone, cannot be got back." "I am struck and saddened that within days... of the Cabinet Office for their own reasons deciding to open that up, to share what they thought they had found and their perceptions of it internally with Number 10... I hope that prosecutions will result."

Whenever certain campaigning around social media bans or Martyn's Law is brought up, I'm reminded of this Mitchell and Webb radio sketch from 2005. Here's a transcript: -- Those are the headlines at 5.09 and for an immediate reaction to today's event I think we can speak to Tom Hilton hello Tom? uh hello Chris Pal here from Radio 4, thanks for speaking to us. Can I ask what your response is to today's announcement that Rail North East will not be funding the laser assisted train early warning system? uh well yeah I personally think it's a shame So it's shame on the management, shame on the government? well I suppose but look - can I just say I'm really not the best person to talk to about this, I mean it's weird you even happen to to call me. You see by a spooky coincidence I actually lost my wife in a train crash. Yes, we know. one that exactly this kind of system could have prevented. That's why we were in touch with you Tom. oh! oh right. blimey that does seem a bit... almost... ghoulish. Well, no it's it's because you've got personal experience of a rail tragedy that your views are so important. really? I would have thought that it was because I've got personal experience of a rail tragedy that my views should be dismissed out of hand. No, no, look... Would you say that, to you, safety is by far the most important issue facing the rail network? well of course I would my wife just died in a train crash. Thank you. but you really should talk to someone else it's impossible for me to have any objectivity at all. Right, but, but if spending the three billion on the system could bring back your wife, that would be worth it? well, obviously, although I must stress I lack - any - objectivity. Nevertheless, what would you say to the minister? What would your message be to him? my message would be: minister, good luck in judging how to allocate your finite resources given the many competing demands you face.

ANALYSIS: When Number 10 got their hands on Mandelson’s developed vetting documents they thought they had a get out of jail free card for the Prime Minister: and a Civil Service scapegoat. But they didn’t understand what they were looking at and boy has it all backfired.
