We mustn’t forget that she has been allowed to be silent for a decade, and without Alan Bates and this inquiry, she wouldn’t have offered a word. Huge day. Finish her, lawyers

The key lie, and cruelty, in all of this was each innocent individual being told that they were the only one experiencing any problem. This in itself, apart from being a deliberate act of tyranny, is surely a crime

What’s going to happen after we’ve all helplessly watched this harrowing, heartbreaking drama. It has to serve a purpose. The enablers, the liars, the criminals have to be brought to justice

I hope Jack Monroe is ok. Don’t blame them for deleting their account on here, in the face of relentless, hideous abuse. They have a young son and are a single parent, so no option to curl up in self-care but only to stay strong for their boy. I hope they have people to call on

David Baddiel doesn’t seem to think anything through. He’s very tabloid. Am at a loss to know why he continues to have such a high profile and why we should all care about what he says
Tabloid press, so easily affronted, oh how dare people take offence to how we operate, to how we merrily cause so much damage day after day

Wow Twitter at its worst tonight re Mark Owen’s appearance. He’s now 51, not 21, and so has committed the crime of visibly ageing. And unless you’re all Dorian Gray, so have you
An appalling cover up and no surprise. What a debauched, amoral pair the Mountbattens were.
The fact that the Royal Family continues to be held up as a thing we should admire, bow and scrape to, is ridiculous
⭕️ Dickie did his own thing: from Belfast to Sligo, Ireland has always been awash with rumours of Lord Mountbatten’s sexual interest in young boys. MI5, MI6, governments & the Royals will have been briefed along the way. His victims are due a statement from the Royal Household
Taken in 1996 photo of Dolly who was incarcerated in the Moor Psychiatric Hospital for having an illegitimate child in her early teens, she never left and died about a year after I took her photo.
@IanBeesleyphoto
I remember clearly seeing this photo for the first time on here and couldn’t stop thinking about it, and Dolly. Your work is so important, thank you
@GrahamSmith_
Why doesn’t he just quietly and anonymously give away some of his millions in order to help, instead of making it all about him and his unbelievably privileged family
Some nice news! My Peony pic won photo of the week in the lovely Corona Flower Show Facebook Group. It was shown to some people at the Chelsea Flower Show and got a mention on BBC London Radio too. Fame at last! 😀🌸🌺🌼

A scripted show, with the jokes written by BBC employees! Clive risked his life reporting for the BBC from Ukraine. Absurd and insulting for them to single him out and treat him this way

It was like a different match today. If it had been allowed to continue last night, while Andy had the momentum, he would have won it in 4. The atmosphere under the roof was extraordinary and it was willing him on. Very cruel timings. He played extremely well ❤️
Friday is usually Rejection Day for me, but not today! Thrilled & honoured to be working with the wonderful

Poor woman. She is brave doing this interview. The untouchable establishment. And where is Ghislaine Maxwell? Why is she allowed to hide away?

Very pleased to find out this morning that my first 20 photos as a contributor for iStock by Getty Images have been approved and accepted! These 3 are among them and are the first 3 in my portfolio. Don’t enjoy self-promotion, but wanted to share 🙂
Nearly missed the motorway junction listening to One More Try 😭❤️
What a body of work & what a wonderful afternoon of his music. Thanks so much

Marina, you also come from a hugely privileged background, with contacts and wealth galore. You are an exceptional writer, but nepotism must have helped to get you where you are today. This piece is cruel, frankly, and misplaced, in my opinion
Ok yes it was great he had a go at the Tories, but he’s also just a billionaire, standing in front of us peasants, expecting our continued subservience

@thestephmerritt
Brilliant thread, thank you. What an unbearable loss. A Place of Greater Safety changed my life. It was always so much more than writing, and it was so wonderful, I can’t actually describe it
@realzoestrimpel
You’ve clearly highlighted here, in your obvious anger, in case we missed it the first time, the reasons people quite rightly were appalled at your unnecessary and cruel words about Nicola Coughlan. So much more than just a fat attack
Matt Hancock has been getting a lot of bad press recently. I hope this thread will go some way to addressing that. 🧵⬇️
At the height of the pandemic I was looking for Dido Harding, we all were. I was wandering Westminster's corridors, opening doors, looking in cupboards and
Alex Bereford, well done. And his observations about siblings. And the fact that Harry, aged TWELVE, was made to walk behind his mother's coffin, while the world watched him...
Coward Piers Morgan flouncing from his own programme when challenged on his bullying of a pregnant woman is a joy to behold. But really he should be sacked.
Public figures should not be paid to abuse people as it helps create a culture of racism and misogyny

Why do we expect artists (all artists, not just visual ones) to be ‘nice’? The very nature of their obsessive pursuits mean that they are driven, self-centred, self-absorbed, repetitive, with more than a leaning towards narcissism. This is the norm
@DrPragyaAgarwal
Royal women seen as merely bodies, including their skin, and colour of their skin. Hilary Mantel was remarkable, with her astute, clear thoughts and her prowess in making them public
So stagnant and dreary here at the mo, am seriously in need of a bit of summer!
This is from last August 🙂

Seems that in Britain it goes like this - be famous for something else, then will come the guarantee of an instant book deal, then the massive hype and then the hugely successful career as a writer of children’s books. Stinks a bit
