The world is generally full of far too many "journeys", and has been for some time. Years ago when I used to pitch books to publishers and I was asked "Ok but what's the journey?" it reliably made me want to projectile vomit. And is one of the reasons I write the anti-journey books I write now.

These Ministers aren’t fixing the housing crisis they’re cashing it in. Selling off state land while our people sleep in cars isn’t policy. It’s a political hit job on vulnerable whānau. You don’t build homes by gutting the agency that builds them. #HousingCrisis #TePātiMāori #NZPol

neilhwilliams 2m Today is the anniversary of the Battle of Orgreave 18/06/84. Hundreds of miners clashed with police, in what became one of the most controversial flashpoints in modern British industrial history. There was later evidence of police misconduct and political orchestration. #peterloo
