Today I’m honoured to pass the @MCCOfficial President baton on to the wonderful @stephenfry. There are so many people to thank for their support, love and friendship during the busiest of years. It’s been an incredible privilege. I’m still pinching myself ❤️

Shame on you ⁦@nytimes⁩ - have you swallowed the Taliban Kool-aid? Not one mention of the fact girls are banned from high school & uni and women from almost everything. And of course your journos could report ‘freely’ - you sent men!

“Nobody leaves their place of origin unless they’re desperate.” In her latest novel, Isabel Allende explores migration and finding a home. “I am a privileged refugee,” she tells me, arguing “there is a racist component” to the inconsistencies in how we treat migrants & refugees.

It was a privilege to give @KBrunt26 her first @englandcricket cap 19 yrs ago. It was immediately obvious she was special - passionate, strong, brave, loyal, caring. The impact she’s had on our sport and the many teams she played in is immeasurable. Thank you Katherine ❤️
