My latest for Stylist Magazine:
Trump’s win caused me more than fear and upset – my hope for the future, sense of identity and faith in humanity went into total freefall.
It feels like a moral injury. So I chatted to mental health experts to find out more.

Benjamin Netanyahu should be arrested immediately if he steps on British soil.
