I just finished Defiance by Nechama Tek about a bunch of polish Jewish partisans living in the forests to escape the germans and how they took all Jews who found them in to save them, not like other partisan groups who only wanted armed and fit young men who could fight. True story and really interesting. Also Scum of the Earth by Arthur Koestler is really good and is about a journalist living in Paris in the lead up to world war 2 and his ensuing flight from the nazi's (he wrote anti-fascist stuff so was a target because of that as well as being jewish).


Complicity or the Wasp Factory by Ian Banks are really good fiction too.

    • This is the relevant passage, I believe "Southwark Council (Peckham Rye, Burgess Park, Southwark Park) will earn a projected £440,000 from events in its parks in 2025, up from £340,000 in 2024. Events include GALA Festival in Peckham Rye, August’s Boiler Room, Jazz Café and Maiden Voyage in Burgess Park, and RALLY festival in Southwark Park." What would of course be interesting to know is what they spend this on. Is there any transferred benefit to those local people who live around and use these facilities? But I wouldn't hold your breath for an answer.
    • An interesting article from Journalist Jim Waterson about how much councils make from festivals....it starts with an article about 5g but scroll down for the festivals article    https://www.londoncentric.media/p/real-5g-conspiracy-how-londoners-lied-over-their-phone-signal
