Tags: ai conference researchI just wrapped up participating in the 2025 World Anti-Bullying Forum (WABF) in Stavanger, Norway, and it was…epic. I do not use that word lightly. The WABF has always been special to me, as I get to spend time with other passionate scholars and practitioners who have come together to tackle bullying in all its forms.

Why do we keep selling what Harold Macmillan called “the family silver”? And why, when things don’t work or are about to go bust, do we expect the government to rescue our strategic industries, such as steel, burdened with crippling levels of debt partly incurred to line the pockets of wealthy foreign investors? Here’s another question: how come we’ve only just woken up to the fact that China may not always have our best interests at heart?

This year marks a number of very special anniversaries related to the Holocaust: in particular, the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz last January and this week of Belsen, two of the most infamous Nazi camps. Earlier this month BBC2 and BBC iPlayer showed two powerful new documentaries marking these events, The Road to Auschwitz (a BBC2/PBS co-production) which despite its title is mainly about different phases of the Holocaust and was presented by the historian Simon Schama.

It’s no good. As we all know perfectly well from childhood, a house built on sand cannot stand. Yet the economic models being currently paraded – and followed — on both sides of the Atlantic as the bases for action, are clogged to the brim with the dirtiest of sand, and will, with absolute certainty, fall before very long. The American one has started to crumble already.

“Liberation Day” saw Trump at his Trumpiest. Made for television, aimed squarely at his populist base. Either you’re with us or against us—and those who are against us are conspirators who will be crushed. The policy itself was blunt: a 10% blanket levy on all imports into the United States, with targeted tariffs of up to 54% for major rivals. It sent a shudder through the global trading system. And yet, for once, Britain appears to have dodged the worst of it.

Is it too late for Europe to save Ukraine? The slumber lasted far too long. We need to wake up. As a 19th century Hungarian poet wrote in a different context: “Rabok leszunk vagy szabadok, ez a kerdes valasszatok”.(“Shall we be slaves or free men? This is the question, you have to choose.”)This is not a rhetorical question. If Ukraine falls it will be followed in a chain reaction by the Baltic States, by Poland, by Moldova, by the Czech Republic, by Slovakia, in fact by all of Eastern Europe.

Tulips, daisies, lilacs, hosts of daffodils…and genocide: all proliferate in April. Suicide and depression rates are highest in April and perhaps it is no surprise that Genocide Awareness Month also falls now, the beginning of the fourth month of the year: a time of renewal, the end of decay, the possibility of hope, brighter skies — and the killing season. “April is the cruellest month,” as T.S. Eliot says in The Waste Land.

“Lesotho, which nobody has ever heard of.” This was Donald Trump, with his customary offensiveness, three weeks ago. Unusually, it was not a flagrant lie — at least as far as his followers (and most Americans) are concerned. The 35% of Africans living in extreme poverty, 43% without electricity, relying on only the most basic of health services, are becoming even more invisible. Even though “the poor you will always have with you” (Mark 14:7) is a constant rebuke to the West.

Charles Swallow, former owner of the London Vanderbilt tennis club from 1985 until 2003, passed away on Sunday 16th March. He was 86 and had given up his career as a history teacher at Harrow School to run the club. The Vanderbilt was seriously exclusive under the ownership of Swallow: a club limited to 500 members, frequented by the likes of Princess Diana, Steffi Graf, Richard Branson and the Saatchi brothers.
