This latest police guidance confirms that women who have miscarriages or stillbirths will continue to face irrational suspicion and intrusive police investigations at a difficult time in their lives as a result of outdated criminal laws, unless MPs take action.

Here is my best guidance for action, rendered beautifully by the great John Lithgow. I first published these lessons more than eight years ago, in late 2016. They open the twenty chapters of "On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century."

Incredible episode!
Ozymandias I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: “Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert . . . Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed: And on the pedestal these words appear: ‘My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!’ Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”
Good explainer of how we’ve got here, and how we can respond ⬇️☀️
Still from my latest ep.
Love working with hard-working, talented people and it's great to see more female directors on set.

A favourite quote from a favourite book:
"I wish I were a girl again, half-savage and hardy, and free."
Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights.

I feel this. 🤦🏽♀️
In thy weak hive a wand’ring wasp hath crept,
And suck’d the honey which thy chaste bee kept.
Happy Black History Month to everyone in the US! 🖤

There are some scary things happening right now... getting out there in the real world and connecting with people is how we create solutions (and stay sane).
