This novel is absolutely insane. And apparently based on real people the author encountered in his work as a journalist 😳

What’s so moving about the election results in Brazil & Serbia & global student protests is you think you’re alone wanting things to be different & then suddenly you realise the young generation has got this . They are outmanoeuvring unhinged wealth & power , we have so much to learn from them .

My grandad fought in the war and he loved nothing better than beating the shit out of racists. He kept a tally of how many he put in hospital

Dear writers, please do not use AI to write/help write your pitches, they arrive in my inbox absolutely honking of data centre, please please just have original ideas and work them up yourself else really, what is the fucking point of being a writer? Getting so many of these at the moment.

My year 9 old mate Paul once stood up and tried to convince a classroom full of kids that The Queen lived in Barnsley Town Hall and did a better job than this.

cokehead patriotism from knuckle dragging imbeciles too weedy to actually fight for a country, but are handy with their fists towards anyone weaker than them. All cheered on by bots, racists and cosplaying Nazis. I want to see every single one of these pricks sobbing as they're sent down.

'No arrests made'. They have been completely emboldened. And we know how this works: they will do it again. In greater numbers. A catastrophic and far-reaching failure of policing.

'No arrests made'. They have been completely emboldened. And we know how this works: they will do it again. In greater numbers. A catastrophic and far-reaching failure of policing.

Worth noting that police in the UK have made over 2,700 arrests for peacefully protesting the banning of Palestine Action.

'No arrests made'. They have been completely emboldened. And we know how this works: they will do it again. In greater numbers. A catastrophic and far-reaching failure of policing.

A failure of: Policing - No arrests made. 'Escorted' home. Security and intelligence - 'Unaware' of the plans. Government - Complete silence. No warning of action and consequences in relation to future protests.

The Home Office response? “We appreciate the frustration of those who have been impacted today. Access to the port is now restored and traffic is flowing"
