This is what lefty feminism looks like
There’s something I’ve been busting to tell you for ages – and then I could, but all week, I haven’t (remember that feminist quip from the 1970s – I was going to start a revolution but I couldn’t get a babysitter?) I love Ros Sitwell. I’ve been trying to grab some time to write about…

Nae King II
Nae King I was my response to the penultimate devolution/re-structuring consultation in Hastings. You can read about that here… I went to HBC’s final one yesterday, and there were more people and more ideas than at the last but Nae King II is not a report on that meeting so much as a development of…

Hastings demands… Nae King!
Journalists and others have been commenting on the lack of interest Hastings has shown in the demise of HBC but, it seems to me that Hastings is only just finding out it’s happening. As we set off up the West Hill on Monday for the first of the two discussions on the topic that Hastings…

The government just isn’t working for us, and now our local council is about to be pulled from under our feet – well, to a great extent, the council wasn’t working for us any more, either but – what’s left for us? A month or so back, we had a big meeting at Winding Street…

When you carry the Homeland in your heart and travel the world with it, you become its ambassador wherever you go, telling its story, transporting its concerns and spreading its culture. – Amjad Rfaie If that sounds to you like the antidote to genocide, you’re thinking the way I am but Amjad has a more…

The Gish gallop
This is the 3rd in my ‘time savers’ series, for activists who are horrified to see the same hollow arguments of the gender ideology cult doing the rounds again. Thanks to JH for drawing my attention to this one. As always seems to happen, an example turned up on a local page and exasperated a…

A plague on both your houses
AirBnB and Amazon – which one do you reckon is doing the most harm to the world? Or, as I am feeling today, which one would you least want to touch with a barge-pole? Towards the end of last year, I spent several months trying to have a conversation with AirBnB about their alleged platforming…

Unknowers trying to find out
Every now and then my blog loses a bunch of followers, and I look back at the last few articles to see who I’ve offended, and how. Occasionally, someone tells me, then I do a lot of thinking. I don’t get anywhere near everything right but for some reason, that doesn’t bother me the way…

Letter to my MP regarding an act of piracy
Dear Helena Dollimore, As I am sure you are aware, Israeli forces illegally boarded the Madleen, a British flagged ship, in international waters this weekend, and kidnapped the crew. This is an act of piracy and also illegal obstruction of attempts to provide aid to Gaza. As the individuals concerned were acting as representatives of…
