I got a prize and gave a talk. It didn't go as planned, and this wasn't the talk I'd prepared. But I'm glad I got to say this. https://t.co/8egn02Z1Pu

@stephenpollard Nobody was marching against Jews. I attended as a Jew - I felt incredibly welcome, and was even thanked. It is also our responsibility to protest Israeli war crimes, as many - including you - falsely imply Israel speak for all Jews. Please reconsider this dangerous narrative.

A little late in sharing but this summer I had the pleasure of making a very special film with @utopianrealism and @GeorgeMonbiot about the relationship between climate change and mental health for Charlie's new book 'Spinning Out'.

Had the joy of making this short film with @GeorgeMonbiot
Feeling quite raw today, watching this made me feel more hopeful and more human.
Longing for trees, clean water and radical civilisation-wide system change. Not a lot to ask 🌈

Mehdi Karami, a 22-year-old Iranian protester and Karate champion, could be put to death at any moment. He was charged in a sham trial without due process & forced to confess under torture. #DoNotExecute #مهدی_کرمی @khamenei_ir @UN @UNHumanRights https://t.co/dkooHHD1fK

@RandoxHealth Please can you get back to me ASAP about refunding my Day 2 test, where you sent me someone's USED test instead. Highly irresponsible in so many ways... I have emailed you photos

@WizzAirUK_W9 Finding it quite difficult to find information about what test to take/what form of evidence is needed to get on a flight next week from Luton - do you have any clarity on the Covid test specifications for flying abroad ?
