Whenever a post of mine about patriarchy gets a lot of attention, I inevitably have at least one person comment something about how I need to have more compassion for men. It makes my eyes roll back into my skull. I already have compassion for men—the lack of compassion for women is the problem!

Rachel Reeves is right that the world has changed - so why won’t she change her strategy to reflect it? Rigid adherence to arbitrary fiscal rules & refusing wealth taxes is a political choice that’s causing huge pain & harm, as well as laying out the welcome mat for the populists at Reform UK

🚨 CONFIRMED: Social security for disabled people has been slashed in the Spring Statement. This is cruel, irresponsible and shameful. People at food banks are already telling us that they’re terrified about how they will survive.

I note with interest right-wing media's total absence of any concerns about prominent BBC presenter Armstrong expressing his highly political opinions. As was always perfectly clear to many of us, the problem was not that Lineker had views, but the fact they didn't approve of his views.

Starmer should now say the truth; the world has profoundly changed, we cannot rely on the US anymore, and we should rejoin the EU. Negotiate re-entry with the EU soon, and then put those terms to a referendum. He'd win.

Good Day! I very much enjoyed the Tirzah Garwood: Beyond Ravilious exhibition at the Dulwich Picture Gallery. Garwood had a magical world she escaped to in her wonderful explorations with creativity. She had the potential to be one of our greatest illustrators but sadly died too young.
