Putting party politics on one side for a moment, the news that the councillors who committed this disgusting act of environmental vandalism have lost control of Plymouth council is heartening indeed.

We attribute much of the success of our 30th year anniversary #StephenLawrenceDay campaign to our generous media partners. Close to £1m of pro-bono media was secured by @wpp for the campaign.

Billions of pounds of our pensions are invested in companies like BP and Shell. This money is supposed to be saving for our futures, but in reality, it is jeopardising them.
Tell your pension fund you want your money building a better world 👇

Not long now till next book out. May 11. The question feels more urgent than ever with so many people close to the end of their tether about the state of politics. The truth is we can all do more and we all should. I hope this helps engage and activate linktr.ee/alastaircampbe

19 years since I totalled myself. No great sage advice if you’re facing something catastrophic. All you can do is keep going. MLK puts it better “If you can’t fly, run, if you can’t run, walk, if you can’t walk, crawl. But whatever you do, just keep moving forward”.

A fire in overcrowded flat where 18 people packed like sardines with landlord collecting £10,000/ month killed one man. Survivors now abandoned. Council knew about the overcrowding, knew about it. Nothing was done then. And nothing being done now for the survivors.

This is a very thoughtful thread on the life of a writer and why I admire writers so much.
Quote Tweet
I feel like one of the most challenging aspects of being a writer-- and one that we don't often discuss in public-- is how long the process takes and the fact that the majority of a writer's career is out of their control. It can be heavily disheartening. 1/
