Speed writing at the airport after a brilliant trip to Bucharest.

Building Digital Power In The Age Of The Radical Right. If it’s a battle for attention, they’re winning and we need to respond with as much determination and focus as they do.

It was our second birthday recently.
To mark the passing of time we decided to send some post to all the people who inspire, support and work with us. And then this happened!
Which made us feel warm inside and very proud to be part of the community we are in.
We’ve got some stickers left if you want some.
Early in the UK COVID-19 lockdown, inspired by a tweet containing an image of some graffiti on a wall in Hong Kong, we reached for our ink pad and alphabet stamps and made some marks onto a piece of blank paper.
It made us feel better.
We posted it on Instagram, some people liked it, some people said we should turn it into something. So we did. And we posted it to a few people whose home address we had. Who posted it to their social media. Which meant more people asked if they could have one. So we sent more. And that kept on happening.
We’ve sent close to 200.
To people we know and to people we don’t.
We sent one to someone we’d never met before, who asked us to send one to her gran whose dog had passed away that week as she thought it would cheer her up. We hope it did. And we sent one to a mate who messaged us back to say thank you and then died a week a later. And we miss him terribly.
And now the words that we borrowed from a tweet seem even more relevant than they did in March.
If you want one in the post let us know. International dispatch subject to delay.
