I just watched Small Axe, the episode on Alex Wheatle and it's an incredible watch. A very tough watch - such a tough childhood/youth due to racism. Very well acted. Very informative too. Highly recommend bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodโ€ฆ via @bbciplayer

Harper Collins paid ยฃ2 million for Boris Johnson's memoirs. Booksellers are left with piles and piles of unsold books. When are they going to learn to invest in real writing talent rather than throwing ridiculous amounts of cash on politicians and celebrities?
