Happy Trans Pride, London!
Bodily autonomy is an essential principle and we can’t abandon it in the wake of moral panic. Your body, your choice. Trans people are our neighbours, friends and colleagues and are deserving of a life of dignity and happiness.

UK firms struggle but price pressures likely to keep Bank of England on alert
British companies are struggling to grow and the job market continues to weaken, but inflation pressures are still lurking in the economy, according to surveys that are likely to keep the Bank of England on course for only gradual interest rate cuts.

Happy Pride, London! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
People come to and love London because they feel it’s a place they can truly be themselves. I love that about this city. One day we will have a world where every single person can live and love freely, no matter who or where they are.

Labour’s latest on migration is yet another disappointment from this government.
Migration isn’t just a good thing because it helps plug gaps in the receiving country, but because human beings deserve to live with autonomy.
Where you happen to be born should not define your life chances.

From time to time I feel like I need a little “reset”.
One of the things I always do when feeling like that is watch this beautiful lecture by Michael Sugrue about Marcus Aurelius and Stoicism. I really recommend it!
