All 5 novels in my Nirvana series are now available to buy. 5 books for under a tenner can't be bad, eh? Please also check out @storiesforhomes in aid of @Shelter. https://t.co/VFJUkGcTBn

Hi all! So Dad has now walked a massive 172 miles! Considering he’s 80 in September, and my mum’s full time carer, not to mention still on the Grandad duties, this is a huge achievement! Please continue to like/share and donate whatever you can to this brilliant fundraiser he is doing for Parkinson’s uk for people like my mum! Thank you! 💖 https://t.co/OjHOLspdCF

@Socket1Sophie How they rue yer? 👀 Hope Leonard Cohen comes back to haunt yer. 😆

Maybe we’d build a healthier reading culture if people spent more time championing books they love rather than publicly humiliating the ones they don’t.

Not every book is written for every reader. That’s fine. But the constant sneering around “bad” books or mocking people for what they enjoy reading creates an atmosphere where readers feel judged instead of welcomed.

Reading for pleasure should never feel like a test.

In the National Year of Reading 2026 and the message to GO ALL IN, this matters more than ever. If we want more people to read, discover bookshops, take chances on stories and build lifelong reading habits, then enthusiasm will always achieve more than literary snobbery.

I would be so grateful if any of my followers could continue to like/reshare/donate to the below. I am trying to get my Dad as much as possible as he’s 80 in September and will be walking 100 miles through May to raise money for Parkinson’s for my mum who has Parkinson’s and Dementia

Thank you so much! Xx

Please share this far as you can and if you can, please donate to a worthy cause! Thank you so much! Xx https://t.co/OjHOLspdCF

This would be an ideal time for @jdforward @haaretzcom and @JewishNewsUK to present opinion pieces from Black Jews, Jews of Colour and Jews in interfaith/communal relationships about nuances and potential opportunities for anti-racism coalitions and work in response to attacks.

Excellent thread 👇

We keep treating hate like a series of isolated fires. We extinguish one only to find three more are elsewhere.
​If we do not step back and see the entire landscape, from far-right extremism to rising antisemitism, we just play whack-a-mole with symptoms as the system rots🧵

Please sign & share the petition to unblock #swift nests at Milton Viaduct. It seems that shaming @networkrail may be the only way to make them do the right thing. Nest holes must be unblocked IMMEDIATELY. https://t.co/ItSBwVKweZ

[Debi Alper @DebiAlper]

@MichaelRosenYes @uriweltmann Yes! @UK_FOST and @NaamodUK among others.

[GO GREEN @ECOWARRIORSS]

"Britain’s swift population declined by 66% between 1995 and 2022, largely due to widespread loss of nesting holes in older roofs and buildings"
So what does💔#NetworkRail do
They block their nesting sites, after traveling thousands of miles they are left with blocked nests

[Hannah Bourne-Taylor @birdshannah]

#NetworkRail have ignored dedicated swifties for 10 months but they can still help the birds by unblocking their homes. Tell the CEO this: [email protected] Anger as swifts’ nesting holes in Derbyshire rail viaduct ‘blocked up’ https://t.co/S9IEmCLHhz
