We're thrilled to be holding this conference @TORCHOxford as part of our project based @uealdc and funded by @ahrcpress, showcasing what we've discovered but also the findings of other researchers and writers working with @pen_int! Hope to see you there! torch.ox.ac.uk/event/opening-…

BREAKING: Staff at The Daily Express (which frequently warns of the dangers of "militant unions") are set to go on strike over low pay. This is really funny, isn't it? x

Very disappointing news that award-winning writer and filmmaker Tsitsi Dangarembga's application for discharge was today dismissed and that her trial will continue. We continue to call for all charges to be dropped.

Zimbabwean novelist Tsitsi Dangarembga @EfieZethu & co-accused Julie Barnes application for discharge dismissed. Trial will now continue on the 10th of August.

This is Brexit

You can't just "make Brexit work", @Keir_Starmer, when it’s clearly doing such damage Pretending #Brexit can be positive is dishonest, plays into hands of Govt & undermines national interest Instead, admit this is about damage limitation - don’t falsely claim to “make it work”

The Bill of Rights Bill, set to replace the Human Rights Act, will weaken protection and undermine freedom of expression. Read our joint response with human rights orgs @article19org & @IndexCensorship to the Government's proposal. #BillofRights englishpen.org/posts/campaign…

#Philippines: We are alarmed by reports that writers, journalists and cultural workers are among dozens who have been arrested for engaging in peaceful activism. Our statement: pen-international.org/news/philippin…

More shameless sycophancy. How can this lot call themselves the party of law and order and allow this grubby, lying, law breaking Prime Minister with no respect for the truth, no obvious comprehension of right & wrong & not a shred of decency or integrity to cling on to office?


Just a huge thank you to the brilliant @hannahtrev who has just been indispensable to our project and many others at and with English PEN. We’ll miss you and we wish you loads of luck in your exciting new job!❤️

It's my last week working at @englishpen. If you're coming to @LondonBookFair please pop by and say hello and perhaps even take in one or two of the events I've programmed: englishpen.org/posts/events/e…

Brilliant @noosarowiwa in conversation at @TORCHOxford/@Writefreexpress conference on a century of @PEN_int. Honouring and remembering environmental campaigner Ken Saro-Wiwa, and revisiting the role of PEN when he was in detention. (Must-listen too: bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0b…)
