Go watch my latest film for GreenPeace. Such an honor to be given the chance to work with such an important organization and on such an important issue.
This is not your typical charity song. It’s a call to arms, an impassioned plea to take action today, for the sake of tomorrow. Together we can stand up to the fossil fuel industry. Add your name now: act.gp/3NaCqhN #DontStop @officialAvelino @FraserTSmith @samonaYo

Such a pleasure to have you in the audience !!
Really uplifting to see talented film maker Samona Olanipekun’s narrative clever and poetic short, I and I - a tale of alter ego and inner self, sometimes like the doubtful voice on your shoulder, other times in harmony. Jade Ang Jackman’s Young Hot Bloods a great pairing.

I am not even being slightly hyperbolic when I call "critiques" of Palestinian resistance straight-up fascism. You're talking about a colonized & dispersed people under daily threat of genocide. To "critique" their resistance is to say "well why don't they just roll over and die"

Fact: No outside protest has resulted in a spike in COVID-19 infections. #metpolice can not police #COVID away. I've said before that Cressida must go. We need to be careful who replaces her. Priti as home secretary is a deep worry. Gaslighting the country at ever turn.

I’m old enough to remember 4 days ago when the government threatened legal action on a London council for planning on closing schools a couple days early
