Lineker & now Ince. Even for those not paying attention it should now be obvious that the sort of people who whine loudest about “cancel culture” are the ones doing the cancelling.
The far right’s commitment to “freedom of speech” is an authoritarian joke & the BBC has disgraced itself.

Even in platforming our success - there's still more spin.
We're not backing "small boat migrants."

Last week I visited Duddo Five Stones, aka the Singing Stones, for the first time - wow! Beautiful weathered megaliths crowning the hill, with Northumberland spreading far and wide, and the Cheviots on the horizon. The stones even whistled for us! Very nice indeed #StandingStoneSunday

Human brains are wild.
What does it benefit me to remember the burning red-faced shame of speaking at a school assembly and saying the word neanderthal aloud for the first time.
I'd always read it in my head as:
Nee ann dearth all.
They laughed.
It haunts my dreams occasionally.

Day 41 of Amu’s hunger strike.
Still, the Justice Secretary refuses to meet with me.
Still, the Justice Secretary refuses to meet with me.
My constituent, Amu, is on Day 40 of their hunger strike in prison.
Last month, I requested an urgent meeting with the Justice Secretary to discuss their wellbeing.
He has now officially declined my request.
What an absolute disgrace.

Almost daily someone wants to tell me that I should mind my own business and stay out of US "politics". So almost daily I have to remind them that Trumpism affects global economics, environment and peace. I'll do what every concerned global citizen should do. I'll express my opinion. Loudly.
