Congratulations to @MIFestival for winning best event at the #McrCultureAwards. Captured the feelings of the city and yes, am biased, as many people dear to me in this fabulous city walked the Piccadilly gardens catwalk.

Bernadine Evaristo and Margaret Atwood together winners of The Booker Prizes. Two amazing novels, intergenerational, intersectional feminist writing. Perfect for now. Thanks Booker.
