I'm delighted & mad about 'Belfast', Branagh's new film. I'm from Derry, 70 miles down the road from Belfast, and I wrote a novel 2 years ago, titled SPUD, about my fifties Derry childhood. Delighted because 'Belfast' is so good and mad cause my book is better. So there, Kenneth!

How was this oligarchy flunky elected Labour leader?Where were the members who voted Corbyn in?Was the election rigged just like the 2019 General election? I suppose the obvious reply is yes: somebody of Starmer's ilk is needed for the subs' bench after the 0.01% get rid of Bojo.
I would love it if you read my story that I just published on @inkitt inkitt.com/stories/599405?ut… #amwriting #inkitt I don't know where Inkitt got supercala_123 from. It must be a name I sent them. And the cover of the book. I obviously made a hash of sending it to them.🤓
