2025 is very much an Irish year for Dedalus and following Take Six; Six Irish Women Writers edited by Tanya Farrelly and Border Lines by Ros Franey wehave Patrick Doherty's firstnnovel Pure Beautiful Boy.
Calls for release of 700 files on Guildford pub bombings due to be released in 2020 but subsequently blocked by Home Office. 'There has been no accountability,' says Alastair Logan. ‘How can we learn from the past mistakes, if we can’t read about these cases?’ asked @rosfraney
Excellent piece from @Bynickdavies in @prospect_uk detailing the shocking and lazy and lo life of Surrey police and further the UK establishment, still to be honest about this whole mess. Latest book is a cracking revealing read @rosfraney

48 years after the Guildford pub bombings, the state cover-up of what happened has been loyally preserved by the inquest into those who died. This week’s Private Eye reveals a taste of new evidence that the court should have investigated, had it been doing its job properly.
Perfect Holiday listening - and reading!
Delighted that @sagaegmont have released this gem of a book in audio. Charming and chilling.
Congrats to @rosfraney !
It’s not easy to feel optimistic at the moment. And yet, over the last few months, I’ve had the huge privilege of working with two extraordinarily talented women who just performed on stage for the first time ever and @sohotheatre no less. @RubinaPabani@Poppy_Jay_ I salute you.
Letter from Lord #Pannick QC @thetimes today: ‘There is already a tried and tested constitutional means by which #judicialreview decisions can be reversed. It is called an act of #parliament.’ Concise. Incisive.
I just signed this petition because I want you to make sure you do not allow UK cosmetics to be tested on animals for any reason. Please can you make sure animal testing stays in the past @pritipatel? https://t.co/tXO0SwBhkN
I've just signed the @GoodLawProject petition asking Boris Johnson to step in and protect EU Citizens whose jobs are at risk. You can sign it too here: https://t.co/K18cblykLM
A fight for legal aid by the family of Ann Hamilton who died in the Guildford pub bombings in 1974 has been backed by Surrey Police and the coroner, in a resumed inquest into the attacks. https://t.co/mMBqVTXiyo
Police have ruled vital information like this irrelevant to next year's inquest into the Guildford bomb victims. But that should be for the Coroner, not the police, to decide. Families deserve to know the truth about what happened to their loved-ones in this never-resolved case
The BBC has been shown a classified bomb squad report on IRA activity in the 1970s, prompting claims it raises questions over whether the Guildford pub bombs could have been prevented. https://t.co/DictoiCw0d
I've signed the petition to demand that the UK government ban the import of cotton from the Xinjiang region. Will you add your name? https://t.co/1kPJNQfkvR
