My 18-y-o son has read this about five times and I recommend everyone does the same.

When I was living in the poor inner city area of Adamsdown, Cardiff, the local Labour branch ceased to exist.This is what it used to look like when the party was actually working for the community. Labour is dead, the Greens will never be a workers' party, and we all need to get behind a new one.

My 65th title. I've been published by just about everybody, but being on dialysis has made me less willing than ever to compromise, so it's all my own work.

As #Trump and the rest of the Batman villains take over the USA, here's a little ammunition for the culture wars. #booksky

Coming soon, my 65th book, written on dialysis. Open-minded teens should love it, Trump won't!

Here's a book that Trump and his supporters will hate even more than my award-winning YA novel The Last Free Cat. I'd be happy not to make a penny from it if it gets into the hands of as many teens as possible. Publishes on Feb 25, Facebook page at www.facebook.com/profile.php?... #SocialistSunday

Here's my next book, the story of a conflicted teen girl and her journey to political awareness. As I'm on dialysis now and don't want to wait two years for a traditional publisher, I'm bringing this one out in February. More details soon.
