Alain de Botton tribute band from Albania writing for an English speaking audience. Echoes of local saze on the background valiantly filling in for cultural commodification.
Not the most egregious form of Orientalism, to be sure
I wrote for @guardian about happiness, and why it shouldn't be the basic principle of any constitution...

The purists will always maintain that fried red mullet is the king among fish. Here at @PeckhamBazaar we concur wholeheartedly. This iteration is infinitely sexier than one of Ismail Kadare’s love scene

BBC continues its sensitive coverage of the Albanian plight in 2022. This time with an interview by yours truly round the 15’ mark speaking in defence of human dignity, political accountability and broken hopes. Hope you take the time to listen 🥲

Interesting what’s happening to @Twitter +discussions around truth and authenticity.

Faith in humanity restored, at least for one evening. Bravo 👏
Information you will get nowhere else about how and why the UK's immigration system collapsed.

Fair dues to the sister. She denounced institutional racism and made us and the Wind Rush generation fellow travellers. Tougher battles lie ahead sis, and the gloves will come off but the journey of a thousand miles start with a small step…
'They felt scapegoated.'
Professor Lea Ypi talks about 'the reactions of the Albanian community in Britain about how Albanian minorities were being spoken of by government ministers'.

Objective chroniclers or en vogue orientalists for the titillation of the elite they purport to mock? You decide but my take is simple: the orientalised can live their lives irrespective of the Orientalist pen making notes. Pity the Orientalist and their distorted dependency
Couple of things from me today. And some NEWS! First, the recent bout of restaurants on screen, inspired by The Menu and also feat. Boiling Pount and The Bear. Believable or bollox?

What a night!
What an incredible night at @PeckhamBazaar!
John, Esme & the rest of the gang did @PeckhamSponsors proud. Thanks to their kindness and some lovely dinner guests we raised enough in a single night to bring a refugee family to safety in SE London.
Community sponsorship rocks.
A big thank you to all of our generous guests, dedicated staff and all the wonderful supporters for last night event.
Our first mission was accomplished.
For those who couldn’t attend please to our online auction to help raise more money by snapping up all the Xmas goodies

Our charity dinner date is drawing near. Nearly sold out but still a few tickets left for those who want to eat well + help a refugee family resettle in London avoiding winter in a refugee camp. Many reasons to feel down but this is not one of them. 100% of the money goes to this
