As a second-year student at Oxford, aged 19, I switched from history to PPP (philosophy, psychology and physiology) and my tutor, Elizabeth Anscombe, who didn’t hold with political philosophy, said: “Right, I will send you to Mary Warnock!” So I spent a month with Mary having tutorials, writing essays and reading books by Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau and Marx. She was 16 years older than me, a mother of five and a fellow of St Hugh’s College. I used to bicycle up there and we’d have some really good conversations. I was struck by how fun and jolly she was. Mary was modest and practical and a very good listener. For her, it was always about the substance of the conversation. Ego really wasn’t her thing. After that, I didn’t see her again for a long time. In 1966, she became headmistress of Oxford High School for girls, which is a very striking thing for an academic who really loves her subject, and wrote more than 20 books on it, to take on. Later, … [Read more...] about Mary Warnock remembered by Onora O’Neill

Bryan Johnson died aged 95 in March A World War II hero, who died with no living relatives, was given a proper sendoff by more than 100 people after his army friends and museum staff stepped in to arrange the service.   Bryan Johnson, 95, died on March 14, but with nobody to arrange the funeral, his fellow servicemen feared that the British Empire Medal winner would be buried as a pauper.  The veteran, of Lemington Spa, Warwickshire, joined the army in 1941 and went on to serve in the 5th Royal Tank Regiment. He was commander of the first tank to go into the French town of Bethune, signifying the start of the town's liberation and earning him the prestigious Legion d'Honneur medal from the French government. After the war he served in the Warwickshire Yeomanry, helping to create the Warwickshire Yeomanry Museum in 1981 and serving as curator for 31 years. He was due to be made an honorary freeman later this month, but was posthumously given the honour at a ceremony on … [Read more...] about More than 100 mourners pay their respects to WW2 tank commander, 95, after his fellow veterans and museum staff stepped in to arrange his funeral

AS footballing whacks in the face go, Southampton’s 9-0 decking at home to Leicester was the equivalent of a Mike Tyson knock-out punch. But there was never any question of Saints’ determined skipper Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg throwing in the towel after that humiliating blow. Because fighting back after being given a bloody nose — both metaphorically and literally — is what the Dane has been doing his whole life. Be it on the football pitch or in the school playground, Hojberg has always tended to take on a difficult challenge, regardless of the risk. Hojbjerg, 24, explained to SunSport: “If you ask my mother, as a kid I never took the easy fights. I faced them and it toughened me up. Sometimes I would get a whack in the face. “I always wanted to play with the older ones. When you’re at a kid, the three or four years’ difference means a lot.“Personality-wise, physicality-wise but also verbally I wanted to put them on the floor. But of … [Read more...] about Southampton star Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg ready for relegation scrap after fighting with older kids at school
