You’d think the protect-women columnists and their fans would be demanding action/prosecution over the creation and publication of image-based sexual abuse of women and girls that’s happening on an industrial scale on X. And yet.

Draw parallels with those that intend to vote #reform
According to YouGov, 40% of Britons have not read or listened to a book in the past year. Of the remainder, 22% read 1-5 books per year and 4% (me) read more than 50 books.

If that's you, please stop doomscrolling and open a book. Let's each recommend a title.
