Gender inequality is bad for everyone, and parenting seems to me to be one of the most obvious places this manifests. Enjoyed talking to Alex from @dadshiftuk for our #IMD24 series.
HAPPY INTERNATIONAL MEN’S DAY EVE! In our first #IMD2024 interview @inspireajen chats to Alex Lloyd-Hunter, co-founder of @dadshiftuk, about perceptions of gender roles, and why the UK’s terrible paternity leave allowance is hurting everyone. bit.ly/3wM9KHC
This international singles day, I’m so pleased to finally announce that I’ve written a book! Read about it here: thesinglesupplement.substack.com/p/ive-got-anot…. #BookTwitter #debutbook #internationalsinglesday
Been looking forward to this one for a while.

I have just spent an uncomfortable amount of money on tickets to see @TheWiggles but seeing the joy on the face of Jennie (aged 39) will be all worth it
Pre-empting @ThatsSoVillage's most village thing to happen in my cricket game this weekend question. It will be when I retire out to take my turn at the front of the Oasis queue
I like Max Fosh but @TicketmasterUK I'm not sure you've got the bandwith right now to pushing other shows
The ICC need to investigate these Western European pitches. Shouldn't be offering this much assistance to the spinners on Day 1
