Mini “showreel” where I recreate two pieces I performed with @ragandbonearts.bsky.social in 2026. 1. Dave has something to say to Sarah (from a scene I wrote); 2. Amdram actor Tony introduces himself to the audience before the performance of “Chippenham in Motion”.

If you live in Greater Manchester, vote Geraldine Coggins of the Green Party as your first choice for Mayor. You have two votes so there's no danger of letting Reform win. Every vote for the Green Party will push Andy Burnham further to the left. A win for the Greens would be even better! #VoteGreen

@soozuk.bsky.social Just want to say I hope you have a good gig in Chippenham tomorrow. I saw you there last year and you were great. Sadly I can’t make it this year. It’s an honour to perform on that stage once a month ( in an improv group) knowing you’ve performed there.

@shappikhorsandi.bsky.social I see you’ve gone after your ex @mrmarksteel.bsky.social, saying he’d not supported Iran protestors (after you showed ambivalence about the illegal bombing). As when you distorted Jeremy Corbyn’s stance, maybe check facts: Source: Instagram share.google/qvBBV1MjpyH7...

“The decision to ban Maccabi Tel Aviv fans has been criticised across the political spectrum” – Sky News radio at 10.09. Confirmationthat media consider the left, those who don’t oppose banning racist thugs, and those not conflating Antizionism/antisemitism, as beyond the pale politically.

I reckon if Cooper declares Palestine Action a terrorist group we should get as many people as possible to declare themselves members. Should say I have not runs this past PA so this is just a random thought rather than a specific call to action.
