This isn't belonging

Updated 23 January 2018

Weirdly, I found myself agreeing when hearing retired Major General Tim Cross on BBC Radio 4's Today Programme, saying that army recruitment is "not about being nice", it's about "fighting power" against the "Queen's enemies". This nakedly militarist agenda at least has the merit of honesty. The General has been irked by the fresh crop of British Army ads.Marketing the military is a difficult business, with recruitment rates stalling (PDF). But the marketers seem to have settled on 'belonging' as the army's selling point. I'd like to call out the lie.

‘Let them hear our silence’: experiencing the Silent Walk for Grenfell

Updated 9 July 2018

I've gathered together in communities after tragic, violent events – riots, floods – before, but I've never experienced the strength, compassion and power of the multitude who came together one year on from the Grenfell Tower fire.

Challenging armed forces visits to schools

Updated 14 September 2018

On 4 July I was awoken by my alarm at 4:45am so I could check the Scottish Parliament website. While I have a keen interest in politics, I also enjoy having a regular sleep pattern. I try to reserve this kind of sleep disruption only for elections or referendums.

Climate strike: young people demand action

Updated 18 February 2019

"That's not democracy!" shouted the young people next to us, pointing their placards at the Palace of Westminster. "THIS is democracy!" And this demonstration felt more democratic than any I've been on. These young people chose not to be in school, coming instead to seats of power in over sixty towns and cities across the UK. From nursery-age on up, the generation that will face the most extreme consequences of climate breakdown are shaming today's decision-makers.
