I never believed in my lifetime I would see a UK Prime Minister boasting to cheering MP’s that his Government was restricting our right to protest, robbing millions of workers of their democratic right to strike & stripping back human rights. Where is the outrage? WHERE?

Watching people (read men) be outraged by the Archeologists saying that women were hunters in Hunter Gatherer societies is just brilliant.

Imagine your misogony running so deep that you can't accept that women were skilled hunters.

How fragile do you have to be that you're offended by women who lived thousands of years ago, being strong, bad ass providers for their group?

Fragile masculinity, so toxic.

I'm a writer from the UK. I do threads mocking the political fuck-ups of the week. I've also written bestselling books taking a longer view of UK politics since 2010. I try to make it funny, even though it really isn't.

So I'll mostly be writing about that on here. And dogs.

I spent 30 years as a director-level software dude, and still do software stuff half the time, cos books don't pay. Also a painter, drummer, boxer and cancer survivor.

The scale of ongoing biodiversity loss is tremendous.
