My mother just knocked on my door to say “Mayim Bialik is doing a live podcast about Judaism, night!”

I chose Judaism as an adult, but my mom continues to be the most Jewish non-Jewish mother in the world

We are in the midst of a homelessness emergency, the cross departmental strategy for ending homelessness cannot be delayed any longer. The human cost is far too high.

Some nights I find it impossible to write and feel creatively blocked

Other nights, I can’t stop writing

And this short horror story is now evolving into a book (that my mom, who has read my stories since I was 6, is reading faster than I can write it)

“Don’t tell me what happens!” she says

Reading Stephen King has inspired me to do some horror creative writing of my own (haven’t got the necessary focus to edit the epic fantasy book I’ve written) and honestly is it possible to scare yourself with your own imagination because 👀 💀

We hear about the legitimate concerns of white working class communities a lot from the British hard-right, think they’ll care about these horrific and very legitimate concerns?

1/2 So I finished IT (yes, I read absurdly fast - one of the benefits of my neurodiversity) and what a journey that was!

It’s the first Stephen King book I’ve read and his ability to carry a coherent and gripping narrative and still write in that style is *wild*

The best to ever do it.

Obviously…
was gifted this age 14 by a friend and couldn’t get past the first 100 pages because it freaked me out too much

The book has since been lost in the ether, so I’m giving it a go on my Kindle

Will I bottle ‘IT’? Stay tuned…

A group of Reform Party members have begun a "Reformers for Remigration" group. It is praised by the extreme Steve Laws, who got 0.4% in Dover

Laws was - madly - on the Reform approved candidate list, until June 2023 when Richard Tice threw him out for advocating deporting Rishi Sunak + myself

Remember when UKIP were polling at around 20%? They’re now a political irrelevance

It’s not unusual to see fringe parties poll extremely well in the middle of a political term in the UK

I find it weird this isn’t spoken about more in SW1

And it’s why I think the Reform bubble will burst
November 4, 2025 at 4:18 PM
I predict Reform’s polling will collapse before the next election, the hard-right populism bubble will burst before then

And I think Farage knows it, hence he keeps talking up an early election, despite there being next to no chance of that happening

2029 is a long way away

Currently half way through reading IT and honestly this video has absolutely sent me - I’ve watched it too many times

Avoided bread for like 10 days and had some on the weekend and had unbelievably bad stomach pains and felt extremely sick and woke up with joint pain

Why did no one tell me this could happen, I can’t give up my beloved wheat - I don’t care if I’m intolerant now 😭

If people want to have a conversation about Caribbean integration, let's go!

Let's talk about what the white communities of England did to the fresh-faced and hopeful Black Caribbeans when they arrived - who were INVITED here

How they persevered despite deadly racism to be part of British society

I'm so sick and tired of these dutty, poundshop Enoch Powell racist wastemen and wastewomen trying to present themselves as respectable intellectual commentators or academics

Their ideas aren't new, and posting into oblivion about them on Twitter to an audience of racists won't change that

Can we just call it for what it is? Racism.

It. Is. Racism.

Using this heinous attack - which was prevented from being worse by an ethnic minority worker who is now in critical condition in hospital - to push racism is beyond morally repugnant
Lucy White advocates deporting 4th generation British citizens to 'ancestral homelands' if guilty of serious crimes

"Whether he’s a 2nd gen, 3rd gen or 4th generation migrant, he’s proven that he cannot integrate into a civilised society"
