My poem for "A Cure for Them" got translated into Spanish, and a corresponding video made to mirror the one I produced last year! Whaaaat?!
Humbled, honoured, overwhelmed. Thank you to Monica Roa and the team at Bridges/Puentes for this work of art.

This Child Safety Week, we are focusing on our Mothers for Change course and the real tangible effect it is having on driving youngsters away from extremist narratives online. Check out our CYP Now article here: cypnow.co.uk/blogs/article/y… #ChildSafetyWeek #training #mothers4change
The emissions reduction plan announced today has some great initiatives.
What's missing from the conversation is the necessary transition towards a #circulareconomy, and the massive collective mind shift we need to get there. $$ needed here.

“Taking a long-time view allows us to see capitalism for what it really is: a flawed narrative, rather than an innate mathematical truth”
- Ella Saltmarsh @saltsea on the @LongTimeProject podcast.
Yuss! It’s just a story, people. Let’s tell a new one.
I had so much fun recording this podcast with @HarvNZ about my new book!
If you like your podcasts raw and uncut, and aren't adverse to the odd bit of, errm, "colourful language", give it a listen ;)

This should be all over the front pages. The government's terminating our right to protest, through amendments sneaked into the Police Bill at the last minute.
It's the biggest assault on democracy in 70+ years, and hardly anyone seems to know.

The menu for #COP26 delegates has come under fire for serving meat and dairy in almost 60 per cent of its dishes.
A spokesperson for @RebelsAnimal called it "like serving cigarettes at a lung cancer conference"

I have a message for the world's leaders in Glasgow:
The caged canary has been unmoving for quite some time now. No more excuses.

Some heavy symbolism here. The gigantic fabric WelcomeToCop26 sign at entrance to Cop26 has blown part-loose, in strong winds.
This Cop won’t be another Paris. The world’s leaders are not going to do enough here to make us safe from rising weather-chaos. That, sadly, is certain.
So I wrote a book. It's on the power of #story and #narrative to create systems change. And it is available today!
Get yourself a $0.99 bargain e-book - or if you like the lovely feel of cream paper, the inside really is quite lovely in the paperback
