"..You have the right to be angry sometimes" - Little My, character in the Moomin books by Tove Jansson who first appeared in 1950. She is small, determined, mischievous and fiercely independent and partly based on the author herself. #WomensArt

Signed copies of NEON ROSES by @RachelCDawson in stock. Strong novel, lovable characters set in Wales with LGSM during the miner's strike. Fab lesbian rep with lots of great sex and good music. We loved it.

[neopussyboi @forcedmasc]

joan of arc really does have something for almost the entire political spectrum. forerunning nationalism. crossdressing. catholicism. being a girlboss with possible psychosis. its like the church focus grouped to find a saint who could play all the angles

[Waterstones Notts @WaterstonesNG]

Happy publication day to @RachelCDawson!!

Neon Roses is a stunning debut set during the 1980s miner's strike and highlighting the vital work of @LGSMpride. A sapphic coming of age story and a investigation of family, loyalty and joy, if you like the below, you'll love it!

This pervy lesbian mermaid by Georges Léonnec circa 1926, is still one of the greatest things I've ever seen! And yes, she is smoking sardines.

Yesterday I got arrested whilst filming a @JustStop_Oil supporter holding a banner on the pavement near the coronation route. I'm a filmmaker and had my @BECTU press accreditation visible around my neck.

Police deemed this to be "conspiracy to commit a public nuisance".

[Adrian Bott @Cavalorn]

It's fine. It's just the use of force to maintain the semblance of universal public acceptance of the antiquated fiction that some families have magic blood and God likes them better. It's fine

[Edwin Hayward @edwinhayward]

Q: How do you trick the population into believing that asylum seekers are becoming a bigger and bigger issue?

A: Stop processing asylum applications.

Cynical? That's exactly what the Tories did.

The % of asylum applications completed within 6 months fell from 80%+ to ~10%.

The minutes from the @EHRC Scotland Committee meeting 23rd Feb are explosive. The Committee raises serious concerns about the approach being taken by the Commission in recommending amendments to the definition of sex in the EqA 2010, yet they were ignored

All of us want a good outcome for people coming out of the asylum process - but the more you take a 'punishing' approach to people seeking asylum, the worse it is for the human beings involved and it's worse for taxpayers too.
