Great to catch up Mark. The all new Cask Boddies at the Founders Hall too. Enjoy the match & round Altrincham today. The former likely harder than the latter!

Great nights ticking round South London. My first ever visit to the famed Blythe Hill Tavern, what a pub. Then Bermondsey for Anspach & Hobday’s Arch House before ending in Kernel’s magnificent new tap room. Amazing what they’ve done with the space.

15 years of Arsenal being patted on the head by little old City coming out here with all the RAGE from the Gunners in the comments. 22 years & counting.

Ooh can’t wait re Kernel taproom. Going down in 2 weeks & high on my list. Used to live in SE16 so badly miss that whole scene.

It’s a shocker this service. Rarely seems to run weekends either. Anyone who lives past Hale & therefore can’t rely on the tram is effectively marooned WRT public transport options.

Good away end, decent pubs. You can’t argue with Kiddy. Swap them for Solihull in the Conference proper any day of the week.

Laser-sharp rebuke of previous gov'ts on #Brexit and trade, down by most measures, from Douglas Alexander.

One of my absolute favourites in London. I used to live down the road. The variety & quality hard to beat.

“You’re not the far-right man for the job”

The new Private Eye is out now

A photo of the front cover of issue 1640 of Private Eye magazine with the headline "GROOMING SCANDAL LATEST." The cover features an image of Elon Musk and Nigel Farage standing together, each with speech bubbles. Elon Musk says, "You’re not the far-right man for the job," while Nigel Farage says, "He lured me in, promised me money, and then abandoned me!" The subheading teases, "INSIDE: HOW TO SHED 100 MILLION POUNDS IN A DAY!"

Just in from mammoth interview session to two bits of news. One that a DV perp got locked up because of something I did and that a vulnerable constituent had a a massive wrongful debt written off after our intervention. This is why I came to politics, this is why I'll just keep cracking on.

Yes. In particular the U.K./US intelligence agencies & military have deep fraternal ties that outweigh the imminent incumbent of the WH & whoever happens to be in office at the time. Partnerships that have endured for decades will endure four years of President Musk & his sidekick I’m certain.

It will probably come as no surprise to anyone to learn that Elon Musk is roundly disliked by most Brits

Elon Musk is roundly disliked by most Brits

Almost four times as many Britons have a negative view of Musk (64 per cent) as a positive one (17 per cent).

It's been snowing in the UK and the road gritters are out in force, begging the question:
Have you ever wondered where that grit actually COMES from?
The answer is more magical, beautiful and fascinating than you probably realised.
