"We tried very hard and for a very long time but the passports were the straw that broke the camels back"

This is the part of the podcast that the tabloids decided not to quote in their articles about me "dumping my puppy"

People have been furiously reacting to a deliberately distorted cobbling together of quotes designed to make people angry and as a result, I've received some really abhorrent messages including death threats, some of the most disgusting comments have been all over my social media channels, and i'm really not surprised because this is exactly what those articles are designed to do.

I'm ok but it has been a really tough few days that has impacted me and my family.

We rescued our puppy Mary from a shelter in NY and we loved her very much, BUT she developed pretty severe separation anxiety and would act out in all manner of ways. She couldn't be left alone for more than 10 mins, she had 3 long walks a day 2 by us and 1 with a local dog walker and several other dogs, we worked with the shelter that we rescued her from and they referred us to a behavioral specialist and a professional trainer, it was a volunteer from the shelter who would come and dog sit her when we were away, and after many months and much deliberation everyone was in agreement that our home wasn't the best fit for Mary.

The person that she was rehomed with was known to us and that rehoming happened within 24 hours of her being returned. We couldn't meet Mary's needs and her happiness and welfare were central to us making that decision, as difficult as it was.

I've had rescue dogs pretty consistently throughout my life since I was 4 years old, I'm pretty good at ascertaining a dogs needs, I have never been accused of mistreating an animal, and I've found this whole week very distressing.

Please stop acting on clickbait articles when you haven't done your due diligence, I know that people sending horrible messages hadn't listened to the podcast but had been reading the Mail Online and the follow up articles and videos that followed, I could tell by the language they were using exactly what their sources were.

It is distortion, and all you are doing by engaging with these stories is making more money for people who profit from sewing division and tearing us all apart. In the same way that misinformed people acted on distorted propaganda that led to the racially driven xenophobic riots we've seen recently in the UK, it's just all so toxic and I know that we can do better.

@MassiveAttackUK trying to work out logistics for your concert on Sunday. I see you’re insisting on trains only. This will take 3.5 hours for us and 4 changes! Estimating catching the first train back at around 11pm. How do we guarantee getting home?

@JohnLewisRetail please can I have a return address to send my clothes back to. This is an exchange. No label can be created on your website. Takes 15 mins to get through to a human on the phone

@domdyer70 @RTErdogan @Daily_Express Why is none of this in the broadsheets? Instead @thetimes promoting holidays to Istanbul yesterday!

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

It is beyond belief that the government has still not ended arms sales to Israel.

What on earth are they waiting for?

This shameful cowardice must be called out for what it is: complicity in genocide.

[Glovesy @scobitsj]

@ciwf What about rewilding too?

[Glovesy @scobitsj]

@domdyer70 @RTErdogan @animalsavemvmt @MeldaKelemcisoy @InsaneHuseyin Yep. Not going there for our holidays ever

The UK must show it's opposed to this horrendous "delicacy" and ban foie gras imports.

Labour pledged to do this during the election - it's time to turn words into action.

@Vodafone_Auto I’m receiving emails that look dodgey about cancelling my account with you. There’s no number to call on these emails as I don’t want to cancel.

Hearing Tommy Robinson's name being shouted in my home city is sickening. This country is fucked and it's not immigrants or people of colour who are responsible. It's white, uneducated, coke snorting racists. Fuck Tommy Robinson and fuck Farage and Reform UKKK.

Parliament needs to take urgent action against the extremists in its ranks who are seizing the opportunity to fan the flames of far-right hatred and violence.
