Bristol civil rights pioneer Dr Paul Stephenson has died age 87
Paul will remain a Bristol legend having led the Bristol bus boycott in the 60s.
Privileged to have met him when he won a @PrideOfBritain Award.
Rest In Peace brave man 💙 bristol247.com/news-and-feat…

Backstage at a concert in 2015 at my children’s school -Trinity in Nottingham. Now plans to drastically cut music and creative arts from this wonderful state school. Protest strike on Wednesday and Thursday this week. Where will the future of music come from?

My thoughts today remain with the lives stolen from this world by yet another violent man:
Carol Hunt, 61
Louise Hunt, 25
Hannah Hunt, 28
We must name it, again and again:
Male violence against women and girls.
This has to stop.

Kieran is the best to ever do it.
Watch his latest video, if only for the Chris Mason impression.

My overwhelming response towards the failed experiment of my childhood, along with the many other broken utopias I’ve found myself drawn to since, is one of tenderness and melancholy.

Every morning after I've had a programme on @BBCTwo my inbox gets delightfully full of messages from men who didn't like my lipstick. It makes me feel like it's 1922 and I'm being castigated by Captain Hastings for being 'fast'.
