I'll give you an idea where we're at. I get hate pretty much all the time for not calling for Kurtzman's job, I'm used to it at this stage. But what I won't and will never tolerate are the death threats against him I've had to delete from the comments. I don't know Alex Kurtzman but 1/4

My son, Alec Egan, has lost everything in this inferno. His house, his studio, & all of his art are gone. When he saw what was left of years of work (& love, & the birth of two children), he said "it is impossible to grasp that all of that life has been reduced to nothing more than a heap of ash." 🧵

I used to find Twitter very useful until you know who turned it into something else. He appears to be trying to do it to our country and our politics now - we should all make it clear how we feel about that. If he comes over here perhaps he could be arrested for criminal libel?

Shocked to hear of The Vivienne's passing. A phenomenal talent. I took this photo of her performing at the Eurovision celebrations in Liverpool in May 2023. She seemed so proud to be part of a celebration of her beloved city. I hope the city returns the favour and honours her somehow.

Bloody hell, #DoctorWho That Partygate bit - in the middle of Christmas - was really quite something. Funny, sad, sentimental - oh, so sentimental - and blazingly angry. Almost too much to take in. Can we have Anita back, please?

I have to say that keeping the UK out of the Single Market when 82% of voters want it, and the £42bn a year in extra Public Spending it would enable, and reduction in cost of everything which is the only way you can win the next election. Would be the stupidest political decision ever.

“wealthy billionaires and corporations… hoard land as an asset, Britain now having among the highest concentrations of land ownership in the world. Half of England is owned by less than 1% of its population.”

For at least 500 years most 'farmers' actually billionaire landowners have paid zero inheritance tax. They should have paid 40% on each generation, and it has been about 22 generations. So that means now they should face a 99.98% inheritance tax. Let it be so.
