Our village hall is holding its Christmas Market on Sat 14th Nov 2026, 10am-4pm. Lots of great sellers, Jan's Pop-Up Café, and a huge used bookstall. It'll be a fabulous day, if you're in the area come & see for yourself. Postcode: LA6 1NA What3Words: fines.sock.essential.

Author Sally Rooney can't sell her books in the UK, academic Andreas Malm can't enter the UK, but there's nary a peep over Dame Claire Fox's prominent conference, Battle of Ideas, attended by many MPs, with a single bookstall from Oldspeak, a bookshop that almost exclusively sells fascist propaganda

What gets in my craw is @josiahmortimer.bsky.social enquired regarding Oldspeak's extensive fascist lit to Dame Claire Fox in advance of this month's Battle of Ideas event. Oldspeak was still the one, singular recognised bookstall there. Can't claim ignorance. bylinetimes.com/2026/10/14/f...

Imagine you were in a similar situation as Bev Jackson, e.g. your favourite bar invited a Nazi to set up a stall to sell books. Would you say it is ‘authoritarian purity anathema to effective action’ that ‘paralyses the will’ to object to the Nazi bookstall? That’s something a Nazi would say

Note: LBGA’s Bev Jackson does not address that Battle of Ideas continues to have a bookstall by Oldspeak; Jackson pivots to an attack: is there fault made by the individual for making a ‘guilt by association’ when individuals knowingly affiliate with white supremacists and Nazis?

I decided to highlight key passages from LBG Alliance’s Bev Jackson, responding to a thread detailing how Dame Claire Fox’s Battle of Ideas has a bookstall run by Oldspeak, the bookshop that sells Hitler speeches, Siege, and The Turner Diaries:

Great evening at Home last night for the Manchester launch of my new book 'Creative Journeys'.

The onstage guests John Simm, Stephen Morris, and LoneLady were ace. Interesting convos and funny too. All the books on the bookstall were sold.

Sounds like a fantastic evening, Dave! Bringing those creative voices together for the launch must have made for some fascinating conversations. And selling out the bookstall is wonderful news congratulations on the launch of Creative Journeys

This is Angel, adopted as a kitten by our local street-side bookstall.

A few more photos from our conference at the @warburginstitute.bsky.social at the weekend - the Trust has been able to support some fascinating research on #medieval history over the past few years and it was wonderful to see some of the results #Skystorians #MedievalSky

I also dropped by my friend Tom's LGBTQ+ bookstall in Lancaster market and picked up this by @grindrod.bsky.social

Ed Conway’s - @edconway.bsky.social - cover story in the New Statesman this week is essential reading ahead of Festival of Economics 2026. Conway is in two festival events 17 November. And you’ll be able to get his new book from the bookstall. share.google/nLWbEVGH15rW...

I tell you what, Victoria station has some lovely original features.

There had been a scuffle and the Red BookStall had been removed I heard. A bigger knock happened at 8B bus stand In Jadavpur. I visited that area today and bought two books to read and as a small sign of solidrity. We did not like our former rulers. Like my parents were not fans of British royalty

Last evening I saw a table selling religious books in front ofa pharmacy. In years gone by there was Bookstall there to the left. It diminished after LF rule ended. Bt was picking up in 2025. To the right a saffron stall proclaimed book Stall and Modi Tea Stall though there there was no tea!

Guess who got the best gig, not just chairing a panel at the forthcoming @ibbyuk.bsky.social Conference, but also running the bookstall on the day!

Can’t wait. And look at this keynote here ⬇️

Think I might have picked up a first edition hardback of my favourite AS Byatt book at a charity bookstall for a quid
