A reminder that the National Trust elections close tomorrow, October 31st and your vote really matters. The safest thing is to use the Quick Vote and vote for NT endorsed candidates and motions. Another reason for voting below. We need to keep Restore Trust out.

Have now been to the @BridgeTheatre three times and the staging is astounding. In the Lady from the Sea, it rains on stage and then they produce a swimming pool which has a romantic scene in it and actors swimming in it. Also brilliant acting and great dialogue. .

One vital reason to vote in the National Trust elections and for the NT endorsed candidates. We can't risk the Restore Trust candidates getting any influence on it.

This is such a great review and tells us that if we want to have the facts and stories on migration, Jonathan Portes' book is a great place to start. Bushra also shows how much resonance the book has to migrants to the UK.
' An easy and enlightening read, Jonathan Portes’ book cuts through the myths about immigration with clarity and humanity and for me, it hit especially close to home', Read Bushra Mukadam's excellent and personal review. @jdportes.bsky.social

Today, we remember those who vanished without a trace and stand in solidarity with their families still searching for truth and justice. No one should ever be silenced or forgotten.

If you are going to splash out on one Shakespeare production this summer, make it Midsummer Night's Dream @bridgetheatre.bsky.social . It is so inventive and how does Puck speak his lines when upside down? Just one of its many innovations. London not really a hellhole, its cutting edge.

A wonderful evening last week for #RefugeeWeek run by @refugeeaction.bsky.social at the Grand in Clapham Junction. A wonderfully diverse comedy line up with comedians from all over the world and we all laughed a lot.

This is a very interesting read showing the different ways the Home Office have assessed LGBT refugees and how difficult the process is for gay applicants.
Happy Pride Month!

Greetings on Earth Day. We know climate change is real and to tackle the injustice it causes and the refugees it makes, we must act.

Marvellous metaphors and analagies on the equation that Trump used to calculate the tarriffs. The Economist 'like deciding on a tax based on the numbers of vowels in your name' and More or Less on Radio 4' Trump has rid himself of the shackles of rationality'.
