The Mad King at the RSC is an amazing show. Slightly impacted by the GOT nerd next to me who explained every detail to his poor girlfriend. But least I know it follows the books fairly well.

Since I called out Reform in Norfolk for their divisive decision to erase Pride from our libraries, I'm delighted my Labour colleagues @terryjermymp.bsky.social and @alicemlabour.bsky.social have joined my call for Reform to reverse this decision. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Reform bans Pride events or displays at Norfolk libraries

Reform says the directive does not single out Pride but creates a "neutral safe space" in libraries.

Nigel Farage vs "the establishment" He went to private school, worked as a stockbroker, has been a professional politician for 31 years, has his own TV show, is a brand ambassador for gold, is mates with POTUS, accepted a secret £5m gift, and owns five houses bought outright with cash What a rebel

This is kings Lynn and they really don’t see the irony of it

Mark Ashton, central character in the film 'Pride', worked at the Red Wedge office in 1986/7 where his radical energy kept us all on our toes. I'll be performing at a celebration of his life and activism at The Vauxhall Tavern in south London on Thursday May 21st. link.outsavvy.com/80f7cb6p

Please as the left let’s not weighed down in cynicism that there is nothing we can do to stop the right. We have beaten them before many times and we will again. This may feel different as more mainstream politics but they will be found out. #youfacsistswillneverwin

Great evening at English Folk Centre in Camden. Listening to inspiring songs from the early Labour movement in the Uk and US and then @billybragg.bsky.social inspiring as usual. Despite what is happening outside I left with hope and my activism fired up.

Filling Saturday reminded of the “Chase out” days where we had months of protests, sit ins and boycotts but no tennis balls

They once called Nelson Mandela a terrorist, and now they have a statue of him in Parliament Square, London.

Gary Lineker: "This is the mistake the BBC makes. The BBC tries to appease the people that hate the BBC, rather than worrying about the people that love the BBC."

Sad news to hear of the passing of the Pope. A Pope who spoke up for the poor and marginalised. Who spoke up repeatedly about the genocide in Palestine. Hopefully his legacy will be preserved with the next Pope.

Well done America The "Hands Off!" protests today were nothing short of monumental, marking a powerful and unified stand against what organizers have called the most audacious power grab in modern history. With over 1,400 events spanning all 50 states and hundreds of thousands of participants.

Happy 100th Birthday Tony Ben - my earliest political inspiration inspired by grandad who avidly followed his speeches. A great man ( Ben and my grandad) a true socialist and humanitarian who also understood the importance of the UKs place in international politics.
