Stephen sez, "I work for a not-for-profit membership organisation called Heyday and we're taking the UK government to court over the Mandatory Retirement Age policy (MRA). Employers in the UK can sack anyone once they reach 65 years of age, no questions asked/reasons given. So we've put together this tongue-in-cheek image as part of our online campaign - Churchill was 65 when he became prime minister in 1940, Mandela 75 when he received the Nobel prize."

(Thanks, Stephen!)
I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.
