Our 'United in Pride' exhibition at Jubilee Library continues to draw a great deal of interest. This morning, BBC South East asked me a few questions about it. The exhibition will be on display for a few weeks after Brighton Pride. Just pop down and take a look!

Yesterday was one of those sunny Brighton days I've missed a lot over the past few months. Super grateful to live in this beautiful city. Just one more coffee and I'll be ready for the week ahead! ☕️

Future generations will study how damaging Trump's second term was to serious political communication and trust in institutions. Returning to a world where childish tweets and destructive announcements don't replace good governance will take time.

2025 keeps throwing these bizarre things at us. Liz Truss is apparently in talks with Reform UK...

New podcast alert! Political by Design—where UK & US politics meet branding. Each episode is a 1:1 conversation, digging into the design behind the divide with insiders who've shaped it. Launching later this month. Got a campaign or brand you’re curious about? Hit me up.

The Brighton Festival attracts visitors from all over the country and beyond. It's one of the things that makes Brighton Brighton. Today, Brighton Dome gave us a sneak peek at this year's line-up - and it's absolutely brilliant.

Happy Lunar New Year 🐍 CK Bistro 棋哥茶餐廳 and 香港人移居英國 (Hongkonger in Brighton) invited us to an evening full of community spirit and great food. The Lion Dance was a real highlight – I literally couldn't stop smiling! ☺️

I spoke to @itvnews.bsky.social last week about the war in Ukraine, the Homes for Ukraine scheme and the power of compassion in these difficult times.

Growing up in Berlin, a city close to the places where the most unspeakable things happened, I was reminded every year as a young boy of what happens when society as a whole fails to fight anti-Semitism, racism and homophobia. Never again. #WeRemember www.brighton-hove.gov.uk/news/2025/bu...

Community events are taking place in Brighton & Hove today. Let's come together to remember those who have lost their lives. To show our support for communities affected by AIDS and HIV, our landmarks will be lit up in red. We'll also be flying the Red Ribbon flag from Brighton & Hove town halls.
