In other news, my breakthrough play, The Last Waltz, is now available as an ebook. First produced at the Soho Poly Theatre in nineteen I’ve-got-a-frog-in-my-throat, it was directed by the legendary Sue Dunderdale & starred the deliciously funny combo of Celia Imrie & Alexandra Pigg.

"The sprint to clean energy is the only way to get off the volatile international fossil fuels markets, cut bills & deliver energy security" Fair play to Starmer - this is exactly right. Meanwhile, Badenoch & Farage would have us hooked on more fossil fuels www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

Kemi is a two-dimensional cut-out. A cartoon version of a leader of the opposition. A woman entirely without nuance who is condemned to fail time after time as she shouts the same questions time and again and totally misses the point. Tonal deficit disorder. John Crace

“In a continent losing the security we relied on all our lives, trade disputes become trivial, Brexit an irrelevance. Merz is calling for Europe to come together in foreign, trade & security policy.

Shout it out! 📣 The HPV vaccine given to young women has seen an 87% drop in them developing cervical cancer in the UK alone. Projections are it’ll prevent 64,000 cervical cancers and nearly 50,000 HPV-related cancers by 2058. Vaccines save lives, it’s that simple.
