New website, new look, new book, New European, new and old battles to fight

OK, I’ve listened. I’ve listened to people like the wonderfully named James Ski, who stood up at a mental health event I was speaking at, and said ‘I’m a big fan, but your website’s shit.’ His considered advice was that it was old-fashioned and hard to use...

My film on the Mail – and why it is good for the soul to rip it up

I know, I know, I am almost sixty years old, a grown man even  ... and yes, if my Mum was still alive, she'd say 'tut, tut, Alastair, why are you bothering to make a film about that silly man from the Daily Mail that most people have never heard of, and none but his...
New @restispolitics LEADING with our first Taiwanese guest, Audrey Tang, a child prodigy who became Taiwan’s youngest ever minister, the world’s first digital minister who used tech to rebuild trust in government, and the world’s first transgender non binary minister too. Fascinating on so many levels. And with some Chinese language lessons that might help detoxify the trans debate here. LINK IN BIO

Here is the cartoon I mention in today’s @restispolitics Q&A discussion re Larry the Cat. His predecessor Humphrey was once the subject of a bizarre conspiracy theory that required a major media management operation to quell!! We also discuss our shared anger at Labour continued rejection of EU mobility scheme, Brazil ban on Xitter, Labour smoking ban, the new crackdown on Afghanistan women, the silly season rows over Thatcher portrait and @angelaraynermp dance moves, and @rorystewartuk does his bit for Crieff tourism.

New @restispolitics LEADING in which @rorystewartuk and I talk to Anglophile 🇺🇸 pollster Frank Luntz. He has probably done more focus groups than anyone alive and is always worth listening to about the state of play in politics in 🇺🇸 and 🇬🇧 An anti-Trump Republican, a stroke survivor and a New Labour fan, he has a lot to say. And is in agony about how to vote. Hope you enjoy LINK IN BIO
