Hey, The Pantheon Triptych is out now on Amazon.
The story is told through the convergent lives of a scientist, an investigator, and the heir to a super-powered authoritarian megalomaniac bent on revenge.
There must be a way to stop the looming conflict. All they have to do is find it – together.

I’ve written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage urging them to condemn Donald Trump’s attack on the BBC.
The BBC belongs to Britain, not Trump. We must defend it together.

My dad died of an aortic aneurysm, not much older than I am now, so it was a relief to get the all-clear. If this had been in place back then, things could have been so different.

Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design.

I hope politicians from all parties come together to condemn his deeply dangerous and irresponsible rhetoric.

The BBC has always bent towards the status quo. But since Brexit it’s top journalists - who like Mason & Kuenssberg think they’re celebrities - have fawned over the protagonists of that ‘exciting story’: the rise of hard right populism. They’ve stopped being journalists & become celebrants.
I have never been so disappointed in a BBC piece. Breathless admiration is, as far as I knew, not the role of the BBC’s political editor when describing a party political conference. Description+detail yes, rigorous examination of the conference content, yes. This, absolutely no, in my opinion.
Chris Mason: Reform conference shows party's growing ambition like never before
The conference feels like that of a big party - but retains the insurgency vibe that the party is seeking to channel.

‘Far right racist’ thugs tried to break into hotels hosting Asylum Seekers. There have been arrests. These hotels are some of the nearest to Heathrow. Where exactly do they expect them to stay? Shouldn’t every single politician be condemning this? Every single one!
