Crowley and Aziraphale's grand tour.

If Crowley and Aziraphale were tv presenters today, this is them. Its a beautiful show celebrating art, music and gay love. If you love Good Omens and can get BBC iplayer I highly recommend it. Or if you just love art. Rob says he's too buttoned up and needs to let go. Rylan says he will help him.

"Judge Rinder criticised the pair for their lack of 'humility' in accepting the award when there were so many people more deserving of a human rights award."

More celebrities need to speak out about David Beckham’s greed and complete disregard for the people he supposedly supports. Brand Beckham should be scrapped and boycotted just like the World Cup.

Last few weekends of the Times have included reviews of The Responder, Bodkin, Shardlake, Miriam: Death of a Reality Star, Clarkson's Farm and The Tattooist of Auchwitz as well as Tom Selleck's memoirs (which got slated).

Also articles on Inside No 9, Mama Cass, Anita Pallenberg (can't wait to see the new documentary about her) and the new exhibition on Beryl Cook + Tom of Finland (that reminds me I've still not got round to watching my film of Tom of Finland - yes, they made a film of his life story).

And interviews with Tracey Emin, Janey Godley, Rob Rinder & Rylan, Emma Barnett discussing her endometriosis and Joe Tracini discussing his BPD. Plus Tyler James on Amy Winehouse, Patrick Grant on sustainability in fashion and Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall on getting more veg into your diet.

2024 in books: March

You could be forgiven for thinking, given that the number of books I’ve finished this month is lower than last month, that the insomnia I attributed my completion rate to had eased. And it has, slightly, but the real reason I’ve not finished more books is because the lack of sleep is now affecting my attention span and I’m starting books and putting them down one page/third/quarter/half finished…

Wait what did jq do? I went to his instagram but didn’t see anything?

he signed a letter to the president supporting his actions and support of israel, and asking for freedom of hostages.

Just curious if you watched the documentary presented by Philippa Langley and Rob Rinder on new evidence that so-called "Princes in the Tower" survived so can't have been been murdered at the behest of their uncle King Richard III?

I would not treat Langley and Rinder as credible sources of information.

Stood shoulder-to-shoulder in a crowd of 100,000 people in central London, a helicopter hovering above St James’s Park could be heard over the hushed crowd.

The hum was only a little louder than the rustling of winter coats and rhythm of feet along the pavement past old Fleet Street watering holes, less a march than a shuffle.

No flares were launched, no masks were worn. No vehicles were damaged and police acted as helpful hi-vis markers of the route, unburdened by the threat of violence. 

The dozens of riot vans brought in from across the South East sat unused.

The 1,000 police on duty had an easy day’s overtime compared to the demonstrations of recent weeks. 

“No, nothing at all. It’s been very calm,” one female officer told a protester who asked how her day was going.

One helped a bedraggled wayward jogger find his way out of the crowd and towards a less congested route. 

More marshal than law enforcement

Another gave a child on his father’s shoulders a high-five, before getting a pat on the back and a thanks from a Jewish man wearing a Kippah.

Their role felt more marshal than law enforcement, with only two arrests made. 

The biggest furore of the day was when Tommy Robinson appeared.

He was forced to leave by police, unwanted by the Jewish organisers of the event.

Boris Johnson, pictured above, received a much better reception, prompting cheers that broke the quiet when he arrived with wife Carrie and five-month-old Frank, chatting to demonstrators surrounding him.

David Baddiel, Judge Rob Rinder, Rev Richard Coles and Rachel Riley were all spotted in the hordes who had turned up to march against anti-Semitism along with the Chief Rabbi.

”Since Oct 7, on the streets of London, we have heard chants for jihad, for intifada and from River to the Sea,” said Sir Ephraim Mirvis. 

“But today we stand on the same streets of London and say with regard to our precious hostages: Bring Them Home.”

He headed up the mass of people moving through the Strand and towards Parliament Square.

 There was an awkwardness to the crowd’s chants. Many, on their first march, preferred to keep quiet than to join in the singing, with tunes dying out in moments.

‘It’s a bit tame! What do we chant?’

Some picked up last-minute Israeli flags on wooden sticks for £5 from outside Tube stations while others braved the drizzle wearing theirs like capes.

“It’s a bit tame, isn’t it? What do we chant?” wondered Olivia, a Jewish woman in her late 20s, there with her boyfriend and their friend.

Elsewhere, a mother pushing her baby in the pram walked her golden cocker spaniel puppy alongside.

Only when calls of “bring them home” began echoing around the streets did the heft of tens of thousands of people in mourning become apparent.

Three twenty-something men using a small megaphone led a rendition of Am Yisrael Chai. As hundreds join in, one jokes that he “does weddings too”.

They carried a banner stating “Failure to condemn Hamas is anti-Semitic”.  

Another sign saying “Give me antipasti, not anti-Semitism” became a prop for protesters to pose with, while a child was heard reading another out loud “Spread hummus, not hate”.

Jews were supported by non-Jews. Six-year-old Claudia held her mother Antonia’s hand as the family joined the rally because they were “appalled that anti-Semitism has returned to Britain’s streets”.

Mark Elliott-Smith, a  priest at Our Lady of the Assumption Warwick Street, said: “I thought I had to be here and show solidarity. I’ve been on a few of the demonstrations. When I wrote something about it [anti-Semitism], I was called ‘a Nazi priest’.”

‘I’d feel safer in Israel than in Britain’

Rev Coles, bringing up the rear of the protest, said he had joined because many of his Jewish friends now feel frightened to walk down the street. “I find that intolerable,” he said.

Rueben and Natalie, a young, Jewish, married couple with family in Israel came out to march. 

Natalie said that she would “feel safer in Israel, even as the bombs are falling, than in Britain”, her husband nodding wearily. His three brothers live there already.

“At least in Israel you feel like the state is looking after us, that the police are there to protect you, that the whole nation is with you,” he said. “It doesn’t feel like that here.”

The protest culminated with speeches from political and religious leaders. 

Anti-Semitism ‘a stain on our country’

The crowd’s reception to the speakers was muted at first, but immigration minister Robert Jenrick won over the crowd in Parliament Square, telling the thousands packed around Parliament that anti-Semitism “is a stain on our country”.

“Your government will not rest until each and every one of [the hostages] is back in the loving embrace of their families. We stand with Israel,” he went on.

Peter Kyle, there as member of the shadow cabinet and vice chairman of Labour Friends of Israel, spoke after Mr Jenrick warmed the crowds up.

“After the most shameful period in my party’s history, I am enormously proud of the leadership Keir Starmer has shown in combating anti-Semitism and standing up for the British Jewish community,” he said.

It was this that drew the biggest cheer of the afternoon, before the crowd went quiet again as they began their journey home. 

Gideon Falter, the chief executive of Campaign against Antisemitism which organised the march, said: “The voice of decency has been heard today.”

"Please may I suggest you ditch whatever book you’re currently reading, run to your local bookshop and get yourself the new biography by former BBC Radio 1 DJ Nick Grimshaw. It’s utterly and totally brilliant. The title is Soft Lad, but in my experience of Nick, he’s the very opposite of “soft”. He’s hard as nails, glazed with concrete and cooked for several hours.

When we crossed the Namib desert for Comic Relief, he very nearly died in furtherance of raising money for the charity and mental health awareness. He could’ve left, no one would’ve blamed him, but through sheer force of will he kept going. He’s incredible. He's just one of life's splendid people, and someone who doesn't just love what he does but delights in it. Soft Lad is a total joy"

Rob Rinder on Twitter shared a whole conspiracy nut piece which name checked his longtime pal. I wouldn’t doubt he’s a Godfather to one of the boys. To Gator this simply will be some kind of “proof” Cumberbatch is hunting for her help.

Or that Rinder is working for Sophie. But yeah, she'll try to spin this into something positive. At this point, it's pretty clear her narcissist ass refuses to see that everyone outside of her sect see her as the fucking moron that she is.
