Wrote about plans afoot in Leitrim in Ireland to rebuild Gralton's Hall, the subject of Ken Loach's film, Jimmy's Hall.

Behind this project is a small group of people including a powerhouse of dance and Leitrim culture, Edwina Guckian.

You can find out more about the project at graltonshall.com

Built in 1921, it was a place of great reverie, dance, debate and music. It was also a target of the Catholic Church

I'm not saying that the world's first trillionaire is a miserable git but there's no love, beauty, joy, enthusiasm, silliness or fun in his social media feed.

I’m particularly angry today with all those people who attacked us for daring to challenge Laura Kuenssberg, implying we were misogynistic and unfair.

No.

She, together with Peston et al, played a key role in Boris Johnson’s ‘success’.

Sky News is platforming a guy who says he's from a Jewish Aston Villa supporters group, but it turns out that the guy a) isn't Jewish, b) the group doesn't exist, and c) he works for the right wing Henry Jackson Society, whose website says he 'specialises in disinformation'. Well, quite.
