Food security is an issue we can no longer ignore | Letters

Local community food-growing could be best line of defence, writes Dan Farag, while David E Alexander says the government must be more open about its emergency planning, and Antony So says we need to look beyond stockpiling food George Monbiot is right that Britain has become dangerously complacent about food security (Britain’s scorched fields mean a food crisis – and the government is ignoring the one measure that

Screens can play a key role in the classroom | Letters

Dismissing screen use entirely fails to recognise the crucial role modern technology plays in equity, accessibility and basic school operations, says Charlotte Bleakley Your article buries the real story beneath the headline (‘Our children are less cognitively capable,’ says neuroscientist who wants to cut screen use in schools, 16 August).

Zero stars for the online rating game | Brief letters

Online ratings | School holiday scam | Back-row kisses | Barking | Champagne populism To Stuart Heritage’s excellent list of words to describe our tech dystopia (18 August), can I add “iRate”?

My Edinburgh fringe odyssey: ‘The nudity is expressive, shocking – sometimes harrowing’

There are 3,649 shows at the fringe this year, but how many embody its spirit of radical experimentation? I took a journey through foam, lube and gore to find out... Somewhere in Edinburgh, a man is drinking his own urine. Elsewhere, the story of a religious sect that commands its followers to use “butt plugs” plays out as a musical. In yet another room, a comedian sings the same song over and over for an hour. It is

Can anyone be too poor to buy a toothbrush? Yes – I know, because that was me | Katriona O'Sullivan

LBC’s Nick Ferrari can’t see what is stopping people buying a cheap toothbrush, but the grinding reality of living in poverty creates its own priorities I don’t listen to Nick Ferrari on LBC very often. His antagonistic way of dealing with complex problems gets me screaming at the radio far too easily. Last month was a perfect example. Someone from the Joseph Rowntree Foundation was on discussing research showing tha

Insidious: Out of the Further review – evil returns but so does boredom

Uninteresting mythology and junky effects push a once-promising horror franchise further from what it once was When the Insidious franchise started in 2010, it felt like a liberating moment for director James Wan and writer (and later director) Leigh Whannell, the Australian duo who captured the zeitgeist with the original Saw movie, which imported the gonzo energy of low-budget Ozploitation flicks.
