In case you missed it, on Radio Four Iplayer is last weeks Moral Maze. The topic being hotly debated; Virtue signalling. Includes the inventor (edit - first coined it) of the term (I personally thought an American first used it in the 70's though).

Who do you think 'invented' the term?

Brexit: Donald Tusk warns UK against 'no deal threat'

He said suggestions the UK would be better off leaving with no deal, rather than with a bad deal, "increasingly take the form of a threat".
The European Council president told the European Parliament that in the Brexit talks "a no deal scenario would be bad for everyone but above all for the UK".
He said the "goal is a smooth divorce" with the UK and EU as "good friends"

Mr Tusk also stressed that he would "do everything in my power to make sure that the EU and the UK will be close friends in the future", adding that "Britain will be dearly missed as an EU member state".
"At the same time, I would like to stress again that the EU's door will always remain open for our British friends," he said.
