I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

My local post office and village shop posted this on their Facebook page today ❤️ The family who took it over a few years ago have been doing stuff like this in the village since day one. They also happen to be from Bangladesh, which probably means Farage and his ilk would like to deport them.

Help us get “Lullaby” to number 1 before Christmas!

An incredible group of UK & Palestinian musicians came together to release this song. All of the profits will go to Palestine Children's Relief Fund and Palestine Medical Relief Service, among others.

I don't really post anymore, but I would like to carry on writing books at some point in the future.

Hate to be annoying, but any chance you could retweet so old twitter followers can find me if they want to? Going to delete my twitter, or at least abandon it on lock and let it die a slow death.

RIP George Wendt, for the joy he brought but also the moments of great wisdom, could deliver hilarity and soul in the same scene. Never better than in this, right at the end.
Thank-you for giving us Norm and hope the stool was waiting empty for you

But it is as a podcast & newsletter, so I need your help to reconnect to the 3m who read DiS
