It's really important that the United Kingdom makes an immediate open, welcoming & warm hearted commitment of sanctuary to those who wish to leave Ukraine. Rip up the usual bureaucracy & let's just say they are welcome & we will make it as easy as possible to be here

Are we going to follow the empty symbolism by actually offering refuge?

So I’m not a size 8. So I wear cheap clothes and slap on what make up I can when I can. So I’m exuberant to the point of being marmite. I’ve just written a book I’m very proud of that I think will change the way you view the period in history I love. So I’m okay. X

If anyone doubts the existence of an #authoritygap consider how striking it is, given the content of the piece, that we have ‘Professor Sir Richard Evans’ but not ‘Professor Suzannah Lipscomb’, ‘Dr Lucy Worsley’, ‘Professor Dame Mary Beard’ or ‘Professor Kate Williams’.

The footnotes are printed in a different colour and the text weaves around the illustrations. I haven’t felt such joy in handling a book for a long time (also fascinating content, but there’s loads of good books in mundane formats out there) #annotatedarabiannights

I recently learned something mindblowing about the geological history of the Mediterranean Sea, and I just can't get it out of my head. Now I'm going to make it *your* problem too. Sorry. Hang onto your hat. This is wild. 1/
