So excited to share my book no. 2 is coming! For a long time, this book existed only in my head & In scribbled notes.
Today, I finally get to share the cover. 🥳
You Don’t Need More Clothes is about transforming your personal style, from the inside, out. Coming September. 👀

We tend to think courage arrives in our most dramatic moments.
But it’s often quieter and unseen.
It’s sending that email.
Telling someone you love them.
Starting all over again.
I’ve written about the small acts of daring that shape our lives.

Here’s the bravest thing I’ve written in a very long time, about starting all over again as a writer.
(Please wish me luck. I have a feeling I’m going to need it.)

Well now. Isn’t this interesting. So much for the patriarchy.

it is WOMEN, not MEN, who keep women safe.
Women walk each other to cars, go to bathrooms in groups, share live locations, hold each other when men hurt us, and warn one another about dangerous men. Yet society still pushes the idea that “men protect women,” instead of asking why women needed protection in the first place. That’s the patriarchy at work.

Rayner has been cleared, but the media ran 30 front pages in total, averaging 4 front pages a day during the peak of the story.
Farage's £5 million gift has had two front page stories.
Why would there be such a difference in reporting standards for the two?

Absolutely shocking. The fact “getting Wayne Couzened” can even be used as a threat by a former Met officer shows just how deep these cultural issues still run within policing.

Hey @BBCNews , got a story for you!
About 11 reform new councillors have stepped down or been expelled already!
It will cost a lot to elect new ones. How about running that as a story, just for a smidgen of impartiality?

This is all just so very tiring and exhausting. Why can we not talk more about content and policy in this country?

What we know so far about the new Reform councillors
Some died months ago
Some never existed
Some have had to resign because of "irregularities"
One left the country
Two don't have permission to be in the country
One walked away because he wasn't paid
One thinks she's an MP

Living in Britain is watching the media smear and vilify good people who want to make positive change, while they celebrate and platform far right goons, funded and backed by almost comically evil tech multimillionaires.
It does make you feel a little mad.

If you're gonna vote Reform, at least own your bigotry.
Be like: "Yeah, I hate foreigners, trans folk, Muslims, Jews, the poor, the left, the educated and the environment."
Admit you're a fascist. Say it loud. Be proud of who you are.
Don't be a weasel and deny it.

Think what you like about Labour, and I speak as a Green member, they have actually done a lot of what they promised. Unlike the Fuhrage Crew.

“Live every moment like it’s your last.”
For Paul’s 50th birthday, friends and family surprised him on a flight abroad after his diagnosis. He sadly passed away soon after, but this moment of love and joy will never be forgotten.

No very often I agree with Piers Morgan but on this I agree with him 100%. The media would have wet themselves if Keir Starmer was the recipient of a £5 million 'gift'. It's time the Reform bullshit is called out. #bbcqt
