Sean’s choice for 23rd December is the perfect gift for fellow David Bowie fans - ‘Ricochet’ by Denis O’Regan. It’s a breathtaking, never-seen-before portrait of life on the Serious Moonlight tour in 1983 with the late singer by the official tour photographer. Stunning! 📚🎄🎼
Donations are coming in as we reach the final days of the campaign - we're at 60% now! crowdfunder.co.uk/help-secure-fr… Comment from Henry: "Always support the smaller guy against big bullies!" #FightForFrank #BethnalGreen #NoBullies #Coffeeman

I could’ve sat there quietly as the far right tore me to shreds (they were guaranteed to do so the moment a woman like me won my primary), or I could fight back+not let them. I chose to define myself instead of allowing them to take that away from me. And that’s why they’re mad.
