I review Anthony Quinn's very readable, astute and funny thoughts on Kevin Keegan - not really a biography, but better https://t.co/Jw9OQSlbxW

RIP Susan Brownmiller. Even after MeToo her phone did not ring off the hook. Here’s an interview I did in 2018 https://t.co/m9sWDQLrlr

The Guardian bangs out the Observer. Thank you to all of our amazing colleagues. We’ll never forget it ❤️

Brilliant piece by my brilliant colleague @SusannaRustin

[Sonia Sodha @soniasodha]

Even unions, news organisations and charities are using NDAs to prevent former employees from speaking out about abuse, discrimination and matters of public interest relating to their former employer. Government needs to step in and restrict their use.

Today’s Observer column.

Some of us are staying, some of us are going, but we all gave our beloved Observer a proper send off into new waters this evening. What a privilege it’s been to write for the world’s oldest Sunday newspaper these last ten years ❤️

This City is Ours review: a highly superior Scouse Dallas

This series, starring Sean Bean, is the perfect combination of menace and farce.

The fakery of Meghan Markle’s Netflix show
This isn’t her house. Are these people her friends? Can she really cook, or garden, or do any of the things she coos about in With Love, Meghan?

@BBCNewsnight the tone of your programme tonight is so wrong and so embarrassing

@steveclarkuk Thanks so much. It’s so drab, isn’t it? Why did they bother?

[Rachel Cooke @MsRachelCooke]

@AnnaMTuckett @hanateraiewood @classicpenguins I've had time to read it now. It's really excellent - and kind of backs up various things that have been in the back of my mind
