Joined the Greens recently. Humanist. Hopefully woke. #unfuckwithable
I block people who say shitty things. If that’s you, take it personally.
I had a dream last night that Alan Carr claimed the BBC Director position. He was in the Blue Peter garden with John Noakes. He kept giggling.

“That’s amazing news for Socialism and Democracy”

It's official! RE will officially be part of the National Curriculum in England, and is fully expected to include humanism. This took us 35 years to achieve. Now, help us work with the UK Govt to implement it, and give #EveryChildEveryChance. Donate!

I was privileged to see Benjamin Zephaniah in 2019. His poetry, his celebration of diversity, gave me hope. I feel it still.

Aaaand they’ve just covered it up.

1. Out of curiosity, I went through the feeds of some habitual tuna tormentors. I found they’re big on:
- fox hunting
- Reform UK
- antagonism to asylum seekers.
In other words, the same few antisocial (psychopathic?) men, turning up in all the bad places.
