This month I'll try to post some of my favourite miniature paintings. First up, this glorious parody from Hergé's King Ottokar's Sceptre, probably the earliest one I saw. #Ramadan
A very British medical scandal in the 1960s and 1970s, hiding in plain sight.
This is the chilling exposé of Dr Sargant's bizarre psychiatric treatment on his female patients without their consent.
The Sleep Room by @JSThrillers is out 3rd April: https://t.co/BS2bf8MN1H
I'm very excited to announce that my new book SUM OF US: A History of the UK in Data will be published this April by Bridge Street Press @LittleBrownUK
I had a lot of fun writing it and I can't wait to hear people’s reaction to the more surprising elements of this history!
Cost of living up, wages down and £2.7 trillion worth of debt: Britain's economy is tanking. But how did we get here? And how can we fix things?
TANKED is a smart, accessible guide from an expert economic journalist.
As the granddaughter of two men who fought for Britain
As the daughter of a man who helped re build Britain
As someone who served her country at the top table in government
And as the mother of a child who once again, in uniform, defends Britain
I refuse to accept that Britain may no longer be a welcoming and inclusive place for my grandchildren
My new book
“Muslims Don’t Matter” is a personal plea for us to all unite to fight this dangerous and rising form of racism #Islamophobia

I wrote about Zone of Interest (an excellent, very misunderstood film) as a kind of anti-holocaust cinema film, Gaza, and the dialectic of enlightenment for the @VersoBooks blog
thanks to @johnpmerrick!

What a remarkable day this has been here in The Hague. Me for @guardian on why this all matters, in Gaza and beyond — and why double standards and justice are not a good fit https://t.co/Ay76QzU9hk
My conversation with @ezraklein about Gaza and Hamas, the frustrated experiences of the Palestinian struggle, and breaking out of the statehood paradigm in Israel-Palestine.

I’m so upset by this graffiti attack on my grandfather’s library. Alfred Wiener had a PhD in Islamic studies and cared deeply about Arab people. To see his Holocaust archive vandalised in this way suggests an attack on Jews not a critique of Israel. It’s dismaying.
