Lots of tweets today in response to the Observer's 'revelations' about English and Welsh Prisons. Are they really failing - worth reposting my attempt to reframe the debate. "For whom and in what ways does prison work?" reclaimjusticenetwork.org.uk…

What does the future hold for pubs in England? @philmellows looks into his crystal ball. #DSN2018

.@culturalclare reminding us that the idea of 'holding your drink' is still often crucial in rural pubs compared to the acceptance of 'determined drunkenness' in many town/city venues. As in other presentations: norms are dependent on time and place. #DSN2018
And the panel on social change in post war Britain and Ireland begins with @stella_moss discussing 20th century European drinking cultures #DSN2018
