#RIP Udo Kier. One of those utterly unique actors who turned the act of ageing itself into a work of art.

Had the pleasure this afternoon of listening to an orchestra of 216 Tyneside 10-18 year olds performing two pieces from Bizet’s Carmen, having only rehearsed together for a day, with my daughter somewhere in there on trumpet.

Youth music is amazing and should be supported everywhere.

Went to see North Shields’ new Mary Ann Macham statue this morning.

I love that she’s looking out to the mouth of the Tyne, signalling Shields’ maritime histories and those who arrived from distant ports.

She clearly echoes too the other ship figureheads in the town, our “wooden dollies”.

My dad John Barkham died recently. I mention it because some conservation scientists on here may have been taught or inspired by him. He inspired me. Thanks so much to everyone who attended or watched his funeral (it's still online) or donated to Norfolk Wildlife Trust 🙏 john-barkham.muchloved.com

Imagine escaping the literal Nazis, making it to America, living three quarters of a century there making your life, and then this:
79-year-old Paul Bojerski was born to Polish parents in a WWII German refugee camp. His family legally emigrated to the U.S. when he was 5.

He’s been taken by ICE in Florida.

Labour MP for Stroud, Simon Opher, says his party should "stop the scapegoating of immigrants because it's wrong and cruel".

"We should push back on the racist agenda of Reform rather than echo it".
