The @TheCBSO are brilliant !
“A spectacular performance from the CBSO, however the audio dialogue and sound effects of the films, are drowned out at times.” Star Wars Live in Concert, CBSO, Symphony Hall, Birmingham, Oct 24-26, 4☆☆☆☆. Review: @DanAuluk @TheCBSO @BMusic_Ltd reviewsgate.co.uk/all-review…

Public consultations can give LGBTQ+ people a voice on big issues that affect the community. They're yet another useful way for you to have your say. Not sure how to find them or how to respond? Read our fact sheet... lgbthero.org.uk/dpp3-underst…

I am preparing a new show of miniature poetry dramas, unique work within LGBT umbrella.  Unravelling My Parts.. Am looking for a composer for a couple of lyrics as I want to include a group of songs, a couple of others already written and set.

Great opportunity  for a composer who likes fun, and would be interested in setting some slightly raunchy words. Check me RoderickDungate.co.uk. Or DM. Thanks.

Superb statement in the House of Commons from @Keir_Starmer today on Ukraine and defence. It sets out the path to 2.5 and then to 2.6% on defence. And sets out very clearly our position for Trump. Also, it will be of great security for Zelensky. Excellent stuff.

Today I have a first meeting of the team with whom I’ll work on a potential exciting new theatre project, Unravelling My Parts Through Dreams and Nightmares.  Let’s see if the team like the title.  It may change as we begin to work through material. #WritingCommunity

Increasingly I notice how rude representatives of the Trump Presidency are becoming.  All taking their lead from him; rude, arrogant, bombastic, domineering.   #trumpshambles

The press are unrelenting in their desire to get @RachelReevesMP , Labour Chancellor out of office.  This includes the @BBCNews which has for days presented half facts as full facts.  Which equals a lie. #truth

Taking more steps today trying to bring strands together to weave into threads for a new unusual performance event, Unravelling Our Parts.  Slowly coming together. #WritingCommunity #performance

Why is the UK not retaliating to Trump’s threat of 25% tariff on steel and aluminium.  This does not show as a clever negotiating ploy but as weakness.  Which encourages Trump to go further.  Get your act together @UKLabour and impose tariffs of our own.

Trump says aountries all over the world will help him build the Gaza riviera on US owned Gaza.  Which countries?  North Korea and Russia?

In his statement on Gaza Trump is demonstrating a new negotiating strategy.  To adopt the mental rigour of a 10 year old.  The UK, and the rest of the world, must stop leaping into the air every time Trump says ‘Jump;. It just feeds his bloated ego. #deluded
