When the PM went into ICU on Mon No10 said "The PM has asked Dominic Raab to deputise for him." Raab says he has not spoken to the PM since his hosp admission. So the PM didn't "ask" him. What did happen? The PM signed over power before losing consciousness? Andrew Neil any thoughts?


Loved writing this! Thanks Floodlit Dreams Floodlit Dreams.

#dameveralynn was one of the most extraordinary people I've interviewed. Then 97, she was one of the few people to get younger with age. When the time came for me to leave, she blew me a kiss, and her cloudless eyes were as blue as the English summer sky. radiotimes.com/news/2020-06-1β¦

Watching The Sporting L Word on BBC News (UK). Speaking with Joyce Cook recently, recalled interviewing Clare Balding π years ago and referencing "gay marriage". Clare quietly interjected "equal marriage". So right to correct me, & done elegantly. Stayed with me. Thanks Clare Balding π.

Shame on you HuffPost UK and Harry Slater for your treatment of Rebecca Tidy and too many other journalists.

Reading some final edits (beautifully done by Charlotte Atyeo) for the women's football writing anthology that Floodlit Dreams is releasing this autumn. Some magnificent chapters by Julie Welch, Louise Taylor, Kate Battersby and plenty more. Cover reveal/full details soon.

Chuffed to interview Joyce Cook for Football, She Wrote, an anthology of womenβs football writing publ in the UK in Sept, with cover colours echoing those of the suffragettes. Thanks Ian Ridley π Floodlit Dreams for having me. Billie Jean King can you retweet?

The amazing Joyce Cook spent 2 months getting 150 in-danger women footballers out of Afghanistan. She is one of the game's great unsung heroes. Her story, brilliantly told by Kate Battersby, appears in #FootballSheWrote and really deserves to be read. fifa.com/media-releasesβ¦

6/Many #FootballSheWrote Perfect chapter to k-o 2022. Loved this Kate Battersby π but I think Joyce Cook needs a whole book! If #WomeninFootball founding member Joyce's story doesn't inspire you to take action, what will? π€·ββοΈ β¬οΈ We should all #support #encourage & #GetOnside
