Three of my great uncles, heroes all, died in World War Two to stop men like this. Will we now allow them to saunter into power?

I’ve just finished reading Sarah Hall’s new novel Helm. It is a truly astonishing thing, this book, so vivid that you keep wondering how she could have been witness to all those events, from the Neolithic onwards. Then you remember she made them up. But how? 🧵1/5

I know there's a risk of amplifying the fascist horror show, but I think we need to be aware of just how far things are going, especially as this man is a Republican candidate for governor of California. All the old safeguards are being deliberately torn down, and the unspeakable normalised.

At our demonstration today, I'm holding a placard stating
"I support
Palestine.
Action

My aim is to highlight the absurdity of the government dictating what can and cannot be said by peace-seeking people

This, to be considered by the House of Commons this afternoon, needs to cause as much political trouble for the government as the welfare bill. Ask your MP to stand up for the right to protest.

1. Researching my latest column, I was astonished to stumble across this. Sarah Langford presents herself as a guardian of the countryside and champion of rural people and their culture. Yet it’s hard to imagine anything more damaging to rural people than “living between” two homes. 🧵
