Thanks to all the exceptional people who joined our sold-out book launch of The New Censorship at The Frontline Club! Ex-BBC @jmacrodgers, Ex-CNN @IamArwaDamon, and so many of you who joined us to discuss the most difficult topics of the day: the new censorship, the rise of authoritarianism, and the horrors in Gaza. It was an intensive, inspiring, and much-needed conversation. Thanks for joining the fight to know 💪

Female kings have always been a rarity, an oddity, or an undesirable outcome. In almost all places on the globe a male ruler was preferred to a woman, with female inheritance vanishingly rare and frequently disputed. In spite of this, women have secured crowns - or fought for them - over several millennia. Out in 4 September. I am seriously excited!!! #womenwhoruledtheworld #reigningqueen #femaleking #monarch
