This is what 'taking back control' actually looks like 💪

@IrishLitTimes Amiri Baraka at the British Library about 10 years ago, a dancing magician. Or the launch of Michael Hartnett's A Necklace of Wrens in a room above I forget which Dublin pub, more like 30 years ago.

In this hands-on poetopographical investigation I try and suggest the powerful influence living on the River Tyburn had on Blake's writing and imagination from late 1803.

Thanks for sharing, TLM.

'We can see Blake standing on Oxford Street, looking
Tyburn-wards, and thinking: ‘Calvary’s foot’. This alters the cityscape.'

Scientists now say they've discovered the origins of the deadly Black Death - more than 600 years after it entered the human population 😳

Let's take a look at where it came from 👇https://t.co/dVlKyl5zco

I just feel like there is a real grossness to the state driven Jubilee celebration fanfare. People are skint, getting so much more skint & full of worry & we are supposed to go out & celebrate 70 years of unadulterated, unaccountable wealth, privilege, power & exploitation? Nah.

@CapersColly Aye. The Seville Orangemen will know that.

@Jonathan_K_Cook It's not. It's the philosophical difference between potential and actual.

@Jonathan_K_Cook The monster is nuclear Russia. The paper tiger is non-nuclear Russia.

The Conservative and Unionist Party's response to the historic Sinn Fein victory in the NI elections is to gang up and ideologically sabotage it. When the lying collapses into bungling - as with Matt Vickers here - it reveals the emptiness of the case.

54 from 90 MLAs - nearly 2/3 - are supportive of the Protocol, or frankly, don’t care.
