The internet shutdown in Afghanistan happened in real time in my online poetry class on Monday. The women's accounts dropped out one by one. The last to go was Neda. Just before her image froze, I promised to put her poem on Twitter. She's 11. Online was her last hope of

Andy Young, who guided Laura Muir to Olympic and world championship medals, has been banned for three years for serious misconduct - which included driving at speed with an athlete in his car following a disagreement before abandoning them at the roadside.

Absolutely unreal. 🤯 The moment Armand Duplantis broke the world record for the 14th time...

Whaaaaat?! 😻😵🫶🤯

If you've heard about The Salt Path furore and thought, "I could have written a better/less neat/more real book about my own outdoor adventures", then this tweet is for YOU. I am organising 2 residential writing retreats themed on writing about running, walking & climbing

“The law is the law is the law – and no one should be waiting for a go-to guide on how to operate within it.” Me on the ongoing fallout from the Supreme Court judgment on what is a woman and the manufactured toilet drama!

We have shared an interim update on the practical implications of the Supreme Court’s judgment in For Women Scotland v Scottish Ministers: https://t.co/NgyutUBn0F

The recent increase in incidents of female swimmers being photographed indecently highlights the real-life risks to women's safety and privacy of mixed-sex changing rooms. This is why the UK Supreme Court judgement is so important for women. https://t.co/x4rRwDqhds

It is the most bizarre deflection. Apparently when the SG has to meet legal requirements which are UK-wide, and has a statute, and clearly articulated case law at the highest level, to read, and its own lawyers, they can only make sense of it by talking to a UK-level politician.
