It is obvious but worth repeating that regimes built on lies survive only as long as they can suppress truth. The promotion of complicit media (alternative facts) & denigration of objective media (facts) is not just desirable but essential. This process is being turbo-charged in the USA right now.

This is how we bring about proper, lasting change. Not just for #ReadingFC's sake, but also to help every other club at risk of falling into a similar situation. The more signatures the merrier, whether you're a Royals fans or supporter of any other club. Thank you! 💙

If you like football - and who doesn’t? - then please read and sign the petition below. If you like art - sign it too. If you like anything - sign it. Because this is about the things you love being destroyed by money-lickers and monsters.

"This petition isn’t about saving #ReadingFC. The government can’t do that. But what it can do is understand where the mistakes were made and how this came to be in the first place so that we can learn from them to ensure they don’t happen again."

I met some Polish bison today. And a wolf. And it was -10 centigrade. A memorable day!

Never forget what russia has done to Mariupol. There can be no lasting peace in Europe without justice for this. It's either peace through strength and accountability, or more wars through appeasement and concessions. No third way.

Art lovers, if, like me, you are away from a loved one today, let’s console ourselves across the ether by enjoying this beautiful depiction of a big bouquet of roses by Renoir. I love the simple white wrapping paper and the generous quantity of flowers. I love you all! Xxxxx #BeMyValentine

People have been asking: ‘Is it true that the Taj Mahal is modelled on your hairstyle?’ So I went to India to find out and yes. It’s 100% true. If it comes up on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire you can answer with confidence. I’m delighted to have done this small service for global architecture.

Diego Rivera in Detroit. Or rather me standing in front of the Diego Rivera in Detroit. The whole room is filled with Rivera’s car mural about the Ford factory in Detroit. He makes it look like hell. It has to be one of the most exciting rooms in America. That’s the Detroit Institute of Art folks!

To go in or not to go in? That is the question. A strong man walks past that sign and does not eat gorgeous juicy crab in San Francisco. A weak man goes in and crabs out BIG TIME! You can tell from my film history which one of those I am…. 😛 🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀

Marvellous bit of rococo Fragonard. Typically loaded with implications. She’s got a little lapdog. But she’s looking at us to make a connection. So you feel a bit like the lapdog. But also… well, you can feel it, can’t you….?
