These 4 billionaires who own 80% of UK print Media are being sued by Prince Harry for printing information obtained by phone hacking.

None of them pay tax, none of them live here, none of them contribute anything but hate and lies.

RT if you want them sued into bankruptcy.

Great to see a positive response to Friday’s The Guardian editorial. Enjoyment of books and of writing is being squeezed from the curriculum. The Balancing Act looks at how to ensure children develop both skills and motivation to read and write in a culture that promotes creativity.

So pleased and humbled to announce that I am a recipient of an Ordnance Survey Award this year in the RGS annual awards. Can’t quite believe it.

Brilliant - congratulations Carol Atherton for regalvanising this crucial conversation! (And maybe this could help in a small way too taylorfrancis.com/books/mono/10.…)

Tomorrow the children of Grasmere School & Nursery, their adults and I are going to re-open the refreshment hut on the side of Easedale Tarn near Grasmere. Shown here well over 100 years ago. The hut closed in 1939, so when we serve teas and cakes it’ll be the first time for 85 years. 1/5

You can read about the hut in this amazing book and Wainwright also mentions it in his walking guides. 2/5

In the book, a WW2 deserter is hiding. In the abandoned refreshment hut. Both from the Army and from those who love him. He’s come back from Dunkirk. He’s messed up, suffering PTSD. 4/5

We’re reopening it to celebrate the publication of my new book, #AngelOfGrasmere . A book the school helped me plan, research, edit and now promote. 3/5
