I’ll tell you what’s interesting… my guy sent me a video from this street, this morning.
There was no litter pick up needed, there were no walls being rebuilt…
You don’t need those things after protests and demonstrations, you need them after riots.
The difference is clear.

That hotel in Rotherham is not housing illegal migrants. It is housing asylum seekers. People who have fled from danger hoping the UK would be a place of safety, and are now surrounded by murderous thugs trying to burn them alive. Get it right, journalists. Tell the truth.

July is nearly at its end, but #DisabilityPride is all year round ♿✨
To celebrate #DisabilityPrideMonth, we’re sharing another reading list, this time spotlighting bold non-fiction by disabled authors.
From memoirs to manifestos, there’s a wealth of excellence to explore! 📖
ALT Against a lilac gradient background, dark blue text reads: Non-Fiction reads for Disability Pride Month. In the centre of the image, a collage of book jackets is featured. From left to right: Sitting Pretty: The View from My Ordinary Resilient Disabled Body. Strong Female Character. The Girl From Aleppo. The Invisible Kingdom. A Face for Picasso. All Tangled Up. Haben. Black Disability Politics. Against Technoableism. Disability Visibility. Pure. The Reason I Jump. The Pretty One. Leg.

Newly elected members of the French parliament refusing to shake hands with the far right is extremely satisfying. A particular shout out to the rock paper scissors gag.

We lost a generation of LGBT people because of government ideology around HIV/aids.
We lost a generation of LGBT people because of government ideology and section 28.
There are reasons we will never accept losing another generation of LGBT people due to government ideology.

Nigel Farage won thanks to billionaire owned media.
Jeremy Corbyn and 4 Green MPs won thanks to OUR movement - which runs on people’s passion, commitment and solidarity alone.
No wonder they’re so scared of us 😘

The far right isn’t creeping into power it’s got all the grace and decorum of a toddler stomping about the place.
It’s not sneaky, it’s not slick, it’s strolling in, in plain sight and being accommodated.

I'm gonna explain to y'all why Britain considers 78°F/25°C hot. I know hot because I grew up in Texas and spent half my life in Las Vegas. So I am absolutely qualified to explain this to the rest of you who laugh at UK "heat waves".

Thrilled and slightly terrified to announce this. Best producers in the world behind Fargo, The Big Lebowski, Four Weddings and a Funeral. Going to do for funeral directors what Alan Partridge did for sports commentators. thebookseller.com/rights/fil…
