From her excellent self-titled album to be released at the end of July via Gob Nation, Spike borrows the hook from Pet Shop Boys’ ‘Heart’ for the enjoyably sombre Italo of ‘Disappear’ 🎤🎹🎶 m.youtube.com/watch?v=jXRT...

Back when I had Twitter I used to offer free headshots for low-income authors, not sure I have much reach here but the offer is still there. London or Birmingham (although I’m in Glasgow and Edinburgh at the end of Aug and can fit in a session. Will have lights so can be indoors).

Visiting St.Paul from the UK, and woken up at 6.00 am by the frightening sound of a helicopter overhead. Activists have been arrested in nearby homes here, and in Minneapolis This ICE crap is still going on.

Big by-election coming up. No, not that one. Council by-election, Goldsmid ward, Hove. My friend Philip Berman is running. Politics needs people like Phil getting involved. He’s one of the good guys. If you live in that part of Hove vote for him. And spread the word youtu.be/Xeoov3QVVeA

yes. this is the reason. the reason is not "it is always right". the reason is "it will always be better to have the BBC than to be relying on Musk, Truss and X for news".

Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @london.gov.uk · 23/09/2025

I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again. Ignore the haters, London is the 🐐

Graphic with the headline “London is the greatest city in the world” set against a bright view of the River Thames with the Shard, Tower Bridge and the city skyline.

The text celebrates what makes London special: regularly voted the number one city in the world, incredible diversity with over 300 languages spoken, world-class transport, world leader in finance tech and life sciences, best museums and galleries many free to visit, world-leading nightlife, food sport and music for every taste, host to the world’s best sporting events, home to seven Premier League clubs, globally-ranked universities, a city where you can be yourself and love who you love, and a place for everyone.

We want the media and politicians to recognise that there is a large number of women who are supportive of the trans+ community. We call on them to report truthfully about the sources of violence against women and to address the systems that perpetuate harm. notinourname.org.uk/petition/not...

Just a note to all the Americans, no matter what you're seeing over there, we don't like your President. We don't want him here. He has been 100% kept away from the public here in UK & that's why it all looks rosy. They know allowing him to be face to face with British public would be messy. 1/3

Appalled to see this image of Donald Trump and the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein projected onto Windsor Castle. Please... for the love of all that is good, do not share it on all your social media channels... because it simply wouldn't be done to remind the world of the association

I've spent a wonderful month in Paris, but no experience here comes close to meeting Napoleon at Pere Lachaise cemetery. I asked if he was a tour guide, but he said no, he was just visiting relatives. I guess they couldn't all fit in his tiny tomb.
