I read this essay while I was waiting in audience to see Nish Kumar this evening.
Predictably he did a bit in second half about his JKR has lost her marbles and made the world worse by supporting the Supreme Court ruling. He referenced the photo with the cigar too.
All I could think was there is no way he will read that essay and see the thought and compassion in it. He’s made up his mind about which side is right and won’t listen to anything else. He spoke in another section about progressives needing to be a broad church and welcoming diversity of ideas. But there’s no way he will engage with that essay and what she really thinks and why.
Anyway JKR is my queen. Excellent update to her essay. Bravo to her xxx
