Five Siblings at 23 is my most personal book to date. It explores complex family relationships, family secrets, and managing relatives dealing with alcoholism and infidelity. It also reflects my life as a gay man, as well as my two decades of experience as a foster carer #books

Badenoch’s vindictive nature is far greater than her political judgement. She should be appalled that two UK MPs - of any party - were detained and then deported from Israel. But she just couldn’t help herself, and chose to side with Israel because the MPs were Labour. An awful, awful human being.

Prosecutors want Le Pen's punishment to include ineligibility from running for public office for five years. Crucially, they want the ineligibility to start straightaway – which would scupper her hopes of running for president in 2027.

Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson says students must be "have their views challenged and be exposed to uncomfortable truths." So trans students, living away from home for the first time, should expect to have their very existence rejected by gender critical adults working at their university?

ANOTHER government review about trans people without a single trans person consulted. The BBC parroting the Government’s line without including a single opposing voice. Streeting accepting the recommendations in full because of course he is. I’m never voting Labour again.
