Just got home from my short semi-break and writing week, where I have come closer to finishing my new book on #China #CCP #HumanRights. Still more to do, but the end is in sight :)
Delighted to find @limlouisa's new book waiting for me when I got home. Looking forward to it!

#HarryandMeghan claim:
➡️they want privacy, but invite film crews into their home, write memoirs, go on TV shows, air their confused emotions to the world
