Beach recovery day with @ameliagentleman still can’t believe the beauty of snowdon and what we’ve seen in north wales 😎
Wow! I had a great time meeting everyone- thank you for posting this lovely photo
Do watch this powerful report on Windrush victim Richard Black returning to the UK after 40 of unnecessary exile. His criticism of the Windrush compensation scheme is also worth listening to

I love the horses in this picture
The Grey Horses, by Tom Gentleman, published by School Prints Ltd, 1946. The image depicts a village street scene in Hertford with a horse drawn wagon labelled on the side 'McMullens Ales'. The boy in the foreground is said to be Tom’s son, the future artist David Gentleman

Join us this Saturday 6th April 'WINDRUSH NATIONAL VIGIL' commemorating the 6th anniversary of the Windrush Scandal. 12 Noon Windrush Square, Brixton, London. [email protected] @ppvernon @JacquiMckenzie6 @HackneyAbbott @DawnButlerBrent @DavidLammy
We’re looking for examples of individuals who first applied to the #WindrushCompensationScheme without any legal advice & then reapplied/reviewed the decision with the help of a legal professional. If you have insights or case studies, please email [email protected] (3/3)
This is a really important research exercise
Have you navigated the #WindrushCompensationScheme without legal representation, then with it? Legal professionals – has your advice made an impact on the amount of compensation awarded? We want to hear from you! (1/3)
Ongoing delays with the Windrush compensation mean some victims are dying before they get paid powerful report by @nehagohil24 theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/a…

These clubs are an anathema to modern society & equality. The solution is not to let a few chosen women in, but to smash elitism along with the patriarchy. People acculturate. You've only got to look at how some of our Black & Brown leaders become the worst gatekeepers. #Garrick

Very very VERY proud dad moment. Ruby and her brilliant team-mates go in the Oxford lightweights vs Cambridge at 1414 today. To say I am a jangle of emotions would be an understatement. MON OXFORD!
It would have been a shame to have let the revelations by @ameliagentleman about #GarrickClub membership pass without referencing #spycops Inquiry Chair, Sir John Mitting. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
@AllisonPearson @Margare44959604 The biases of that club are ridiculous though, they’d allow Dickens and Thackeray in to a literary club but not Austen or the Brontes… And I wouldn’t be allowed in: “it would be better that ten unobjectionable men should be excluded than one terrible bore should be admitted”
@AllisonPearson No problem with all male spaces and guys getting together socially, it can be good fun, done it myself…but the Garrick is a tiny group of, not very diverse, well connected men getting together, behind closed doors, to decide how the country is run.
