1) Why we voted Leave - voices from Northern England: As always, posting something in a links round-up is not an endorsement of views expressed in the link! 2) Being famous sounds like it kinda sucks: Once in Central Asia, I had a driver show up at my hotel to take me to the airport, but… he used my real name, and I’d given the car service a fake name. To buy time, I asked him to wait while I made a few phone calls. About 10 minutes later, the real driver showed up to take me to the airport, using the designated pseudonym. The first fraudulent driver took off, and to this day, I have no idea how he knew where I was staying or when I was leaving. But it bears repeating: there are professionals who do this, and they will be very good at what they do.
Feels like the Peter Singer allegation should be posted on the EA Forum. IDK if there’s been discussion about this on Twitter but this is my first time hearing about it.
