How to Defeat the Far Right
‘A brilliant and challenging book’ GORDON BROWN From the founder of Britain’s leading antifascist organisation, HOPE not hate, this is an urgent call to resist the forces of extremism on the march in Western societies – and how to go about it. If you’re shocked and disconcerted by the rise of intolerance and hate, you’re not alone. Drawing from 35 years of campaigning and journalism, Nick Lowles shows how anti-immigration, antisemitic and Islamophobic attacks have proliferated in the modern world, and how Britain – with the likes of Tommy Robinson and the growth of Reform UK – has been far from immune from far-right politics. From HOPE not hate’s pioneering campaigns against the BNP in east London to the impact of the ‘manosphere’ and the issues in Netflix's Adolescence; from explorations of the pernicious influence of ‘race science’ and conspiracy theory to the interplay of deprivation and intolerance in Britain’s deindustrialised towns, Lowles entwines his inspirational story with hard-won lessons from decades of activism. His conclusions – which do not shy away from awkward truths for campaigners – suggest practical ways for the far right to be defeated. And he shares powerful examples – from a participant-led youth club in Hull to Syrian refugees connecting with local people over falafel in Bradford – of finding the joy in showing that, hard as it can seem, HOPE can triumph over hate.

THE RAN EMPIRE IS IN DANGER. A prince and a witch must burn it to the ground in order to raise it up out of the ashes. An empress with vengeance in her heart Prince Ashoka’s sister, Aarya, has named herself empress and is determined to reverse her brother’s mercy for the mayakari. A witch lost in dreams Shakti is being held by shadowy figures, drugged and forced to commit an unspeakable crime. When she wakes, she finds herself prisoner, but gaps in her memory around the curse she has cast trap her more thoroughly than any cage. The prince trying to change the world Ashoka must find allies and quickly if he is to usher in a new dawn for the mayakari, but the tougher the decision he makes, the farther he gets from his true self. He must determine what he is willing to lose in pursuit of his vision of the future. The first blow has been dealt by Ashoka and Shakti, but the empire not only remains, it appears stronger—and more brutal—than ever. Both must find ways to fight back before nature is deprived of its spirits and guardians, and the reign of the new empress spreads its destruction and oppression to lands beyond. Maithree Wijesekara's book The Prince Without Sorrow was a No.1 Sunday Times bestseller w/c 2025-03-31.

Ben is the only one who can stop them, by finding Elizabeth's Armour and its Guardians. Ben has retrieved one piece of the Armour – the boots – but the rest remain hidden. He has just one clue, which could lead to Elizabeth's Helm: an old black and white photo given to him by the Master of Apprentices. Ben must split his time between his apprenticeship and searching for the helm, before the dark elves strike and all hell breaks loose. Victor Kloss’s The Protectors is the third book in the Royal Institute of Magic series—a thrilling adventure for young readers who love fantastical stories, spellbinding worlds, and unforgettable heroes. ___________________________________________Praise for the Royal Institute of Magic series:? a cross between Harry Potter and Percy Jackson in that the characters are always on the move at a sort of breathless pace. ? … you don't have to be a magical creature to use magic. Cool. ? Wonderful Read! Not just for kids, adults will enjoy it just as much!? … a great sense of adventure, the story line never lagged, and his characters are well defined. ? It's kind of like a steam-punk version of magic…? … original with diverse characters and enough action and mystery to entertain teens to adults. ? It is honestly one of the few books that I have enjoyed as much as Harry Potter.
Cannes
In the 1970s and ’80s, the Cannes Film Festival was more than a red carpet — it was a spectacle of freedom, fame, and excess. Photographer Ole Christiansen was there, camera in hand, capturing a time when the world’s biggest stars mingled with dreamers, directors, and the beautiful chaos of the Côte d’Azur. Cannes unfolds a visual story from an era when the festival was still intimate, wild, and gloriously unfiltered. Christiansen’s lens brings us close to icons like Grace Jones, Sean Connery, Harrison Ford, Clint Eastwood, and many others — not as distant celebrities, but as part of a living, breathing scene of glamour, sun, and seduction. Through rare, candid, and often daring photographs, the book celebrates a time when film, fame, and freedom collided — when the nights were long, the parties endless, and the line between cinema and life seemed to disappear in the glow of the Riviera.
