Worked on The Full Monty TV show for 3 years with Simon Beaufoy but as WGA members @WGAWestwriters we are on strike so won't be doing any promo, interviews or going to our own premieres. Love this show but it is important to win WGA writers strike. Solidarity.

Radical Abundance book launch in Newcastle last night.

Bullshit abundance and the joys of cloudberries | Morning Star. Great review of ⁦@KeirMilburn⁩ ⁦@KaiHeron⁩ ⁦@alterurbanist⁩ book

London launch of Radical Abundance by @KeirMilburn @KaiHeron and @alterurbanist went brilliantly tonight. There were actual fireworks!

A new way to watch UFC

The one thing that bothered me though, in the updating racism needed a link upwards to power rather than it being just poor white ppl. You can’t exploit people so thoroughly without portraying them as less than.

Loved To Kill a Mockingbird @LeedsPlayhouse Richard Coyle brilliant as Atticus Finch, makes the role his own

What if your money could do more than grow? Robin John’s new book shows you how your investments can honor God and serve your neighbor. Join the Good Investor Movement and start investing with purpose!

Wholeheartedly agree

This is absolutely insane. Anti-protest laws in this country are so severe they’re completely out of whack with every other area of law. They have to be changed.

Hundreds turned out in the centre of Leeds this morning for the unveiling of a @LeedsCivicTrust blue plaque to honour music venue the Duchess and legendary gig promoter John Keenan (@jfk01) - I remember seeing the Chumbas, Flaco Jimenez and countless others there back in the day

The Labour Party are serving the country reheated austerity. It was awful the first time and it will be disastrous this time around.

Mac Donald: "It is not an accident, it is not misogyny... that males brought us the Scientific Revolution—circumnavigated the globe, spent centuries tinkering... fascinated by how the world works and determined to conquer it with a Promethean spirit."

Daughter out with anti fascists in Norwich last night protecting a hotel that houses asylum seekers. 100 anti fascists, 10 far right fascists that didn't stay long. Then watched last night's news and cried at so many people coming out to do the right thing.

Five years in jail for planning peaceful protest is not just an outrage it’s completely incompatible with democracy. We need a new democratic settlement in this country which includes the right to protest, and shifts power away from the elites that anti-protest laws protect

Off in camper van for a few days. Turned out to be a pub at the end of the lane

What a fella he was. Incredible bloke. RIP Rob.

Celebrate the holidays in style. Grab your festive tee today!

Cannot recommend this documentary series highly enough. Absolute hope, joy and injustice. Best music documentary I have ever seen because it is not just about music.

The media is going to systematically de-platform Green MPs over the next 4 years while giving Farage a megaphone. It’s on us to force the issues that matter onto the agenda. That means we’ve got to make a lot of trouble 😈

Just found out The Full Monty won Best TV Drama @NatFilmAwards

Two goes at an orange cake for my friend. Which will taste better, the flat or the slightly too brown prob overcooked one? Not a baker and want to give her the best one

Loved the double whammy Doctor Who eps tonight. Fresh. Took me right back to the thrill of when Russel T Davis first revitalised the show

Ministry for the Future, Kim Stanley Robinson, the best book I have read in years.
