The book isn’t out until January in Ireland and March in the States, but if you’d like a copy eventually here is the pre-order discount code. I’ll share it again and have some launches planned in Bellaghy, Belfast and Dublin for late Feb/ early March. Do come along, I’d be glad to see you.

Double kudos to @jonhenley.bsky.social and the @theguardian.com for:
a) taking the trouble to report on a set of continental European elections where the far-right didn't sweep all before it!
b) calling the far-right the far-right, not 🤮 'the hard-right'!

Seven years ago today, Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi was tortured, murdered and then dismembered. And any so-called comedian who can't stand up tonight in Riyadh and do ten minutes on that kind of hijinx and horseplay just isn't worth the Saudi blood money he's being paid.

Very difficult to imagine Rodgers is signing a new contract, or indicating he will, on the evidence of that.
